The Glawson Family Christmas

For Christmas dinner, we headed to Gigi and Granddad's house to celebrate with them and Greg, Jillian, and Caroline.  The kids were so excited to see everyone and give them their presents!  As usual, we had a lot of fun hanging out, eating dinner, opening presents, and being together!  Here are lots of pictures of the afternoon and evening!









Sweet Caroline's first Christmas!


Katie Anne brought both of the Fijit Friends with us.

 Of course, Peach came to celebrate Christmas, too - all dressed up in the American Girl doll clothes!

 SJ wore a comfy outfit because I thought he'd be hitting the sack early after his exciting day.  He was rocking a Santa booty!

 

After dinner, it was time to open all our presents!  With six adults and three kids this year, that's a lot of gifting goodness!  We got so many great things.  Some of our favorites were lots of clothes and boots for me, a holster and humidor for Saunders, and lots of great toys (and some clothes, although they tossed those aside for more toys!) for both kids.

 SJ and Granddad working together

 SJ loves opening presents!  He would barely stop to see what was inside the package - he just loved ripping the paper open, and he tried to attack other people's gifts a time or two!

SJ goes back to his primal gift opening roots!  Stomp stomp jump!  Thank goodness nothing that he got was breakable!

 Gigi and Granddad gave the kids read-along books that they'd prerecorded, which both kids love.  I look a little confused by it- ha!

 SJ loved the books!

My two cute kids opening presents

 SJ got really tired from the busy, fun day, and he had to hit the sack early.  So, we let him open all his gifts first, and then he headed upstairs to sleep while the rest of us finished exchanging presents.

Greg and Caroline tag-team opening!  All the excitement was a lot of stimulation for little C.

Best of all, Katie Anne got GoGo My Walking Pup from Gigi and Granddad!  She was beyond excited, and it definitely completed Christmas for her. 

We had such an amazing Christmas!  We are so blessed and thankful for our wonderful families and all the festive fun we have with them during the holidays!
