Let Christmas Begin.....

We always end up having at least four Christmas celebrations each year, so rather than try to squeeze it all into one post, I am going to break it up a little bit this year. James refers to our Holidays at the "Christmas Bomb". Basically we see as many family and friends as possibly in the three or four days surrounded Christmas. So to start out this year, James' family all were kind enough to drive to our house. This is the first year in a long time that we have all been together on Christmas, so we were pretty excited!  We all got to have dinner and my nephews worked on a couple of gingerbread houses, and of course, there were gifts.  Carson got the beginning of his mounain of presents, and had a good time watching his cousins running around. 



Aunt Kim and Uncle Erik had to head on to be with Erik's family, but Grandma and Grandpa stayed for a couple of days so they could get some time with their littlest grandson ;)  Needless to say, he was very spoiled by the end of their visit.
