We had a total of 8 Christmas events this year. The first one was on the 19th(see previous post). Christmas continued on the 23rd with most of Scott's family heading up to Nashville to Scott's Aunt Glenda's house. We play dirty Santa here which is always fun!
On Christmas eve we hung out at our house then headed to Aunt Jackies for a night filled with the Christmas story(it starts at 7pm on TBS and runs over and over for the next 24 hours). More presents were opened and fun was had!
Christmas morning was at our house. Scott's dad and sister stayed the night Christmas eve and his mom and step dad came over in the morning. Scott's dad cooks a big Christmas breakfast and then we open presents. I am really torn over how we will do Christmas. Santa doesn't wrap presents in Scott's family so everything from Santa is just laying out so as Max gets older he will see everything all at once and can even sneak a peak before everyone gets up. Santa always wrapped for my family.....and wrapped everything including your stocking. It is easier for Santa not to wrap because he is so busy but makes me a little sad not to see Max's face light up over and over again as he unwraps his presents from Santa. Anyways Max was a really good boy and got a ton of great stuff!!
Christmas afternoon we head to Scott's Great Aunt's house for lunch. 
Christmas night we go to Scott's mom house where we also celebrate with his step brothers. I didn't get any pics because we were all worn out at this point.The day after Christmas my mom came to visit from Michigan. This was our last real Christmas event.
A few days later we had some of the kids over(just Madison Claire and Ryan could make it) and they exchanged gifts and played.
Whew are you exhausted?! We sure where! I can hardly imagine what this will be like next year when Max is running around!
