Chrstmas Eve and Day

We had such a wonderful Christmas Eve and Christmas Day this year. It was nice to feel somewhat alive again, after being on my death bed with the 24 hour flu. It was also fun to have Beckam a little older and extremely excited for Christmas, and Everett more aware of what was going on. Having children of your own really does bring some of the magic, that you had as a kid, back to the holiday- I love it!

Christmas Eve my family did the polar bear- as they do every year. Here are my brothers 'movin like bernie'. Haha.

Beckam decided he wanted to get in this year, but we didn't bring his swimsuit. I normally have one at my parent's, but I must have taken them all home. So, after searching all over the house, all I could come up with were the board shorts I wore when I was a lifeguard in highschool, haha.  Love it.

Christmas Eve night we went to Grandma Jills for a YUMMY feast.

Here are the guys/boys playing with their ipads after dinner.


Charlie had Jill open a present that night and it was the game Wits and Wagers. We played it for a while and had a blast, haha. That game truly shows you how much you don't know.

Tiff give the boys personalized PJs for Christmas. They were SO cute, but slightly small. Beckams PJs are size 4-5T and they totally show midriff, haha.


On Christmas day we had to wake the boys up so they could see all of their presents before church. They were so cute, and Beckam was especially excited about his remote control car and zoobles. Everett loved opening all of his presents. I made my family's traditional Christmas morning muffins and they turned out delicious.

After eating, we hurried and got ready for church. It was a little crazy trying to get there on time, but we loved going to church and being able to worship/celebrate Christ on Christmas day. We also loved that church was only an hour, haha.


We stopped by the Davis' where Jill spoiled us like crazy :) then went over to my parents house for Christmas dinner. 

We had a lovely dinner at my mom's and then we all opened presents from each other. The biggest hits were the remote control helicopters/space shuttles and the BB guns that my dad got for everyone. They've already provided hours of entertainment. :)


I made McKane take pictures of my outfits on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. I love being able to wear holiday colors.

You're much better at documenting all your holiday activities than I am! :) The pictures are great. And you look so good.
