Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve at Grandma and Grandpa Talley's (or Yaya's as our kids call them)

A good game of Settlers to start off, I can't remember who won...
(Luke says it was probably him... probably not)

Dash started out happy...

Grandpa telling about the Symbols of Christmas. Notice the nice Christmas sweater 

(it got a lot of comments)

All the kids want to answer his questions.

"Sad Dash", as we started calling him, is on the ground behind Liam, not wanting to be part of the group for some reason.

It helps when Daddy comes sit by him.

Opening presents

Most of the pictures Stefanie took so I am actually in a couple!

Helping the boys open presents.

I thought it would be fun do some Christmas themed "Minute to Win it" games - it ended up being a blast. This one was trying to see how many candy canes you could get in your cup using a candy cane in your mouth.

Liam did his own version! He always wants to be involved and do what the bigger kids are doing. Dash on the other hand is usually doing his own thing. It is fun to see the differences in their personalities.

The adults had to try too!

Luke showing off his juggling skills.

The kids playing the Mustache game.

Liam and Dash loved this new toy for Grandma and Grandpa's house, it entertained them for a while!

Snowball racing. Love the serious looks on Ashlyn and Gabrie's faces.

Snowball stacking, I think Corbin was the winner on this one.
(though Luke says he won Dr. Mario in the background... probably not)

Liam, Dash and Krew playing their version of Tic-Tac-Toe.

Me and Dash having a good time.
