Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve is always spent at my Nene and Pa's house in Henryetta. My cousins come from Florida and spend a week or so, we have lots of food, later in the day the rest of the family comes, we eat, we hang out and we open presents. Probably one of my favorite days of the year. Honestly, my cousins are my best friends and since they live in Florida, we don't see each other much. Once or twice a year usually, so seeing them is the best!! This year, we were super excited because Colton is older, so we thought he would love opening gifts. Well the week before Christmas, he kept trying to open them under the tree and we would tell him no. So Christmas rolls around and he wouldn't open them. Haha, oops. At least he listens ;) Anyway, it was a great day and we enjoyed every minute! Thankfully, Adam was able to be there as well. Here are some pictures from throughout the day...

Then Joe wanted on, but that's ok, because Colton wanted off.

We played outside for a little bit with the kids. Let them play on the tractors, play with the football, run around, go for wagon rides. They loved being outside! Since it's been cold out, we haven't taken Colton out much, so he enjoyed running around. And of course Joe (our cousin), he lives in Florida, so he's outside a lot and he kept begging to go outside. So cute!

After that, we all relaxed and tried to get the little ones to go down for a nap, but that was definitely not happening. So they just played inside with everyone. Once everyone got there, it was time to eat and open presents.

Colton played with the paper more than anything

Love them!

Christmas Eve came and went by really fast! It was so fun being with everyone and letting the kiddos play. Colton and I are headed back to Henryetta tomorrow to spend time with our Floridian family before they leave.

I hope you all had a great Christmas Eve as well!

Stay tuned for a post about Christmas Day....
