Christmas Day

Tyler (actually was Christmas eve night.)
Look at that face!! So happy!!
Stephen, always all smiles too!
~~We started the morning at David's parents house where all his siblings and their families were all home. They all live out of state. It was the first time in quite a long time that they actually celebrated Christmas on Christmas day. We came over in the morning and Dad S. read out of the Bible and then we all opened gifts. Then we ate a big brunch.

Off to my Gram & Pap's house. We went to my Gram's then for dinner at 1:00pm. All my Aunt's and their families always come on Christmas day. We all brought a covered dish this year to help out my Gram, it turned out well. It was nice to see everyone, we all live close, except Aunt Gina and Wes, but we still don't see each other very much. We should make more time for that!! Family is important.

Back to David's Mom's!!! Then a little later in the evening, we went back for supper. Aunt Faith and Uncle John and Joel and April and the girls came!! We got to catch up and gave a couple of tours of our house. It was nice to see them!! I just love those guys!! We always like spending time with them.

We went to my parents house on Christmas eve to have dinner and exchange gifts. Everyone was there, it was nice! I've been feeling alot closer to my family lately. I really have been relying on my parents alot to. It seems the older I get, the more I need them! It's nice that they are there for us so much!! They've been a great help!! I don't know what I would do without them. They got us some different nice things, and we are going to get a new clothes dryer from them!! Now that we're in the new house, Christmas can be here now!!
