More celebrations

On Christmas Eve we headed to Richard's parents' house for more celebrating!  We had BBQ and delicious homemade candy that Lynette made. We all got more than we asked for, in the presents category and the boys had bought a few fireworks that we popped outside before getting too cold and coming in for hot cider.  


They always buy several lottery tickets for all of us, but sadly there were no big winners this year!
We headed home and Kelby threw out his reindeer food and put out cookies for Santa before we all went to bed. In the morning I made cinnamon rolls and the traditional candy cane coffee cake.  I can't go a Christmas without it!

The kids went through their stockings and opened a few little things, but we are waiting until Troy and Teague return to do our true Christmas.  

Then we all headed in different directions. The kids went with the McCaig's, Richard went to the Fireworks store and I went to Mansfield for the day. We had an adult Christmas opening gifts and playing games and eating all day. Blake is in for Puerto Rico so it was nice to have us all there. Since Blake has to go back by plane, he really has no room to take gifts back do cash is his preferred gift. I tried to make it creative so I made a money wreath.



Again, we got a ton of gifts! And McKenna even got a few treats to enjoy! 




They will all be coming to visit us in a few days to see the house and give all the kids their gifts, so there is still more celebrating to come!! We are blessed!!
