Christmas 2014 #4 (Immediate Taylor Family)

Four Christmas'...  all done, effective this afternoon!  :)
Thursday morning (New Year's Day) we slept in...  too long.  (Long New Year's Eve evening!)...  we scurried around and got out the door around 10:30. 

Blair, Martina and the kids... and Papa and Grammie were waiting for us.  We ate lunch, and hung out... then let the kiddos dig into their gifts from their grandparents.  It was a huge success...  they did pretty well at letting us 'make' them open one gift at a time.  Man, that's hard for little ones!  :)  But they did great.  Kayson got some great stuff...  some nice clothes for school (which he thinks is boring, but we think it's great!), golf clubs!!!, some great art stuff that he enjoys and lots of other cool stuff.  Cora got some great clothes as well - some nice ones, then some things for daycare, she also got a kitchen, which she loved!  Very spoiled kiddos. 

We then just hung out the rest of the afternoon...  Cora did take a rest, she's been SO tired lately, and during that time - again, just hung out and the boys played hard.  We ordered pizza in, which was perfect - so casual for us!!  We got the kids to bed around 9ish, which was really nice.  They were all tired, just playing so hard all day long.  Then it was the adults time to open gifts.  I really like that we do this - however, Kayson was mad - he wanted to watch us open gifts!  ha.  I like the adult, quiet time!!  :)

We were up way too late, but had a great time!  This morning we just hung out... had lunch and also got to see Great Grandma Janis and Great Great Grandma Ann, which was awesome.  We still needed to get the 5 generation picture with the Grandmas and Landry, so that was super great to have that done.  Grandma Ann is so great - doing so well, we are so blessed!

We headed out this afternoon... a little later than we had planned.  The kids were more than tired - starting the 'fighting' thing with each other and the adults had lost their patience.  :)  But overall, it was a great couple days...  we are home and settled, but not near organized yet!  I'm so glad we still have a full weekend to do that...  Closets and toys are going to be cleared out tomorrow!  

K & Tate - with their flag football stuff - gloves too!  :)
Golf clubs!!
Checking them out!
Quite time with his new art stuff...  I'm so glad he enjoys this stuff.
New kitchen!  She'll do the cooking now!

Thank you Grandma & Papa!

Cora & Landry!
With Great Great Grandma Ann.  So special.
Me & my boy.
Ryan and his babies.
