We had a wonderful day today....opening presents and being together with our families. Here are some highlights of our Xmas Eve and Day.
Xmas opening at Gmomma and Gdaddys is a tradition. We gather in her den and open our goodies. She has the best tree ever!

We usually do this Xmas morning, but this year we opened them on Christmas eve. Mom filled our stockings with goodies like notepads, gift cards, soaps, and shampoos. Thanks mom!
Mandy with her stocking that our greatgrandmother knitted back in the day.
Jackson got a slinky in his stocking and he thought it might be fun to see what it would do on Grandmas head!
Gdaddy got an emergency car kit. His number is 841-1444 if you need emergency roadside assistance!
Gracie and Mandy found themselves underneath the missle toe. What's a dog to do?
Gdaddy and Matt both got the new Alabama DVDs called "Defining Moments." I definately see five hours of torture in my future.

But hey, we're happy!
Christmas mania!
Matt got some cool ornaments on his presents. These were on a gift from Pennie and Uncle Scott.
Gmom and her new Coach purse!
Luke got some cold hard cash....the gift that keeps on giving. I think his exact words were "always the right size!"
At one point I had to wear a necktie and Matt had to tape a word to his forehead. Becky had to snort every time she laughed. Which is not that different from what she always does!
At some point in the game, I also had to tape something to my forehead.
Becky had to sit one entire round under the table. She was a very good sport about it.
Luke had to keep one hand in warm water for one round. I think it affected his bladder.
Dad had to sing the alphabet backwards. He actually completed the whole thing without missing one letter.
Matt and I both had to keep our elbows on the board for one entire round. We tend to be pretty unlucky that way!

We feasted on chicken and dressing, squash casserole, sweet potato casserole (all 16 pounds of it. I'm not joking), roast, confederate bean soup, green beans, etc, etc, etc, etc. We had food for 80 although we only fed like 10. It was out of control. After dinner we played a few games. Luke had a new game called "Quelf." It was a very strange game in which you had to do, say, and think very strange things. Perfect for our family. We had a great time.
