Christmas 2017: Part 2 (Christmas Day)

On Christmas morning, Savannah and Hadley woke up at 7:15 A.M. and opened the rest of their presents at our house:

Savannah received an emoji outfit and socks, while Hadley got a tricycle and cash register:

The picture below is blurry, but I'm including it anyway because I only have two pictures of me at Christmas:

We left our house at 8:30 A.M. and drove 2.5 hours to Benny and EJ's house to eat lunch and open presents.  (We usually meet at Gran and Grandaddy's house, but unfortunately they were unable to join us today because they were recovering from the flu.)

We enjoyed spending time with family, eating yummy food, and receiving some wonderful gifts!

After spending three hours at Benny and EJ's house, we started driving home. About 1.5 hours from home, we stopped at Tal's Grandaddy's house, where we visited with family:

4 generations!

At Grandaddy's house, the girls received new clothes, a stuffed animal, and a throw blanket:

After 5 hours of traveling on Christmas Day, we arrived home at 5:30 P.M. and picked up Chinese take-out for dinner. It was a full and blessed day...filled with lots of family, food, and love!
