Christmas Day we got up and had Christmas with just the four of us. Since Kyler and Norah are still pretty little, this didn't take very long. Here are a few pictures of just us having Christmas!

Norah LOVED these candy canes with M&Ms, even though she couldn't eat any :)

After we did presents with us four, we all got ready, ate a quick breakfast, loaded up the truck, and headed over to my (Ashley's) parent's house to have Christmas with my parents and brother. Norah took a short nap while we started to open presents. After everything was opened, we had a yummy brunch of waffles and bacon. When brunch was over, the kids played for a bit and then they took naps while I helped my mom get food ready to take to my aunt's house for our third Christmas of the day. (Will have to post picts of Christmas with my parents later)
When the kids woke up from naps, we loaded up again and headed to Denver, IA to my aunt and uncle's house where we had Christmas with my mom's side of the family. All together there were 24 people there, six of those are great-grand kids! :) We then opened presents out at my aunts house. All of the kids went first and then us adults went around the circle opening our presents. After presents, we had an awesome dinner of ham, potatoes, salad, etc. We then hung out for a while and when our food had settled a bit, we enjoyed some pie for dessert. At about 9:00 we decided we had better head home as kids were tired and it had been a long but wonderful day! Here are some pictures of Christmas with my mom's side:

We had a wonderful day celebrating the birth of Jesus with our family! We hope you were as blessed as we were this Christmas!
