Four Christmases

Christmas with large families is very exciting....and numerous. We had 4 Christmases!
Christmas #1: Our little family
We decided to have our family Christmas on Christmas Eve Eve (yes two days before the actual Christmas day). It was a special time. We woke up early (Cole usually does) and Will and I were so excited for Cole to open his presents. As you can see from the pics, we should have given Cole is coffee first...he looks a little sleepy eyed. He got books and a CD of children's songs in his stocking. He also got a basketball goal (his daddy's favorite gift). Of all the toys, I think he still liked the paper and box best!



Christmas #2: At the White House with Mimi, Pops and the family - "Sibling Gift Exchange"

It's a wild crowd!

Cole got some Christmas PJs from Mimi and Pops

Christmas #3: Christmas Eve at the White House (again... :) )

Nana, Grandpa, and Grandma were all able to be with us. We had lots of presents, a BIG breakfast, and just fun times being together. Bear and Lauren were also with us so we could celebrate the engagement.
