Christmas 2013

Christmas was a little bittersweet this year with Shaun's Grandpa dying a few days prior.  We didn't have plans to visit his family before that happened but the Saturday before Christmas we went to spend some time with his Mom.

Tavin was very excited to open presents!

Our trip was short but it was great (Grandma E did a great job at picking out presents).

We went to my family's house on Christmas Eve and spent the day hanging out, went to church in the evening, and then to my aunt/uncle's house for some holiday cheer.  Tavin surprisingly made it until about 9 and then was ready to crash.

Christmas Day the rest of my family came over and we ate lunch first (soups!).  Afterwards, family pictures (we finished in record time, too)

We tried to get a true family photo, but couldn't get a hold of Minnie

Grandma and Grandpa with the grandkids

And the entire clan

The day after Christmas we went home and had our own little family Christmas.  Tavin was excited there were more presents to open.

It was a great holiday!  We were so blessed to be able to spend it with our families!
