We are so grateful and so blessed to have so much family so close ! (how about that for some "so" in one sentence!) but it definitely means that we have to spread our Christmas celebrations out a bit so the children are not completely inundated with presents all in one day!
We had a great time up in Greensboro with Poppi and DeeDee, and Uncle Brandon and Aunt Angel. Mom made an awesome dinner, like always!, and then we had a sweet time of sharing gifts with each other.
We had some time with Grandpa and Nanny during the afternoon on Christmas Eve. Since the plan was for Braxton to receive a big Chuggington train set, he received several "pieces" of the set throughout the gift exchanges, so it was fun to watch it all come together!
We had to take some "family photos" in our Christmas outfits after we got home from the awesome Christmas Eve service at church! It was so fun to have the kids in the service with us, singing along to all the songs and being a part of the spirit of the season!
Christmas morning couldn't come fast enough for these two!! Though, I must say, we are SO grateful that our children sleep (for the most part!) til 8:00am!
Nana and Aunt Kelly and Shauny came over Christmas morning for brunch and more present sharing!
And Christmas night, the door was still open for more!! Memama, Uncle Clarke, Uncle Watts, Carson and Cooper joined us for a night Christmas dinner. 
Layton's first Christmas was a big hit for the little guy....tuckered out at the dinner table.
