Christmas Eve

After Hours of trying to download these pictures, they FINALLY worked!  Yay!  We had a great Christmas Eve, we spent most of the day just hanging around the house and watching Christmas movies.  We invited family over for the afternoon and dinner and it was a blast!

Kole did a dutch over turkey for dinner!  It was sooooooo yummy!  All 22 pounds of it :)

Kollin got mad that Kleyton got to sit on Daddy's lap.

Karter gave Kole a special present just from him and he had to open right then!

The turkey took a few hours longer to cook then we thought but it was worth the wait and all the snacks and appetizers kept us happy :)  Doesn't the steam coming off of it look amazing?!!

After everyone left we set out cookies for Santa, read a few Christmas books with the boys and put them down to bed. We cleaned up a little, wrapped a few more gifts and curled up with some hot chocolate in our bed.  I think we even heard some reindeer on the roof ;)

I don't like turkey - but in a dutch oven covered in bacon - Yes please!

I seriously cant read your blog without tearing up. I'm such a baby! The gift from Karter to Kole was so sweet, and made me cry. I'm so happy he was home to spend Christmas with you!!
