Christmas at Home

On Christmas Eve, Collin's parents (Grandma Judy and Grandpa Jerry) and Collin's Grandpa Elton came over. We had a nice Christmas Eve dinner. It was my first time cooking a roast but it turned out fantastic! We also had Yorkshire Pudding, my favorite green beans, corn and roasted red potatoes. It was delicious! We all went to bed fairly late as we prepared for Tyler's first Christmas.

Christmas Eve Dinner

He must have known something was up because he slept very well that night in anticipation for the big day! Tyler's first Christmas was a great one. We woke up and went downstairs to see what Santa brought! He brought a stocking full of toys and a Fisher Price Laugh and Learn table. Tyler was so excited with his table!!!

Look what Santa brought!

We then had a great breakfast - orange pull apart bread, bacon and some fruit. We then opened some of our presents before getting dressed and heading to the hopsital to visit Great Grandma Elaine who was recuperating from a surgery.

Santa hats!I love my train!

When we got to the hospital, we tried to get Tyler up to see Great Grandma, but the hospital wouldn't let us. Bummer!!! We all had a chance to visit her and took turns hanging out with Tyler in the waiting room. After two hours, Tyler and I headed home. When everyone else returned, we opened the rest of the presents. There were SOOOO many! Tyler was definitely spoiled (just like the rest of us were)! One of his favorite presents was his red wagon. He loved sitting it in, going for rides, and putting all of his toys inside! We will definitely get lots of use out of this one!

In my red wagon!

Amazing Animals - my favorite!Look at me, I can open my present!!Is anyone watching? I can climb stairs now!

All in all, it was a great Christmas. We all wished that Elaine could have been with us but are thankful we could still see her that day.

At the end of the day, we were all exhausted!

Here is a video from the day!
