Twas Two Nights Before Christmas

and we went to visit Papaw at his new residence.  He was happy to see all the kids, and we were excited to give out the first presents of the holiday season.
After helping him open his gifts, these four rascals entertained him with some dance moves on the local dance floor.  They increased the energy level of his independent living place exponentially!
 
A few hours later, we were celebrating once again, with the Squiers Family.  It was a really great night, filled with yummy lasagna, Caesar salad and garlic toast.  The food was good, but the company was even better. We always have so much fun with them!  After dinner, the kids were stoked to get to decorate and eat sugar cookies.
 
Jackson said he made 6 and ate 2, Lila made 4 and almost ate 3 of them!

I think Miss Julie's cookies were a huge hit.

Then it was time for the kids to exchange gifts. They were so cute about it--so thankful that Cole came up with this idea.  We enjoyed it very much.

Any night when you leave with a new Barbie and toy box is a big hit in their book.  And the boys had lots of fun, too, but that was mostly upstairs playing Madden 15 (one of J's most coveted requests from Santa this year!).
