We had a fabulous celebration with the Powell family on Christmas Eve that included the children's service at church, more delicious food and scrumptious deserts than any of us needed, a huge mess of wrapping paper left after the kids tore into their gifts, and a the most fun and hysterically funny game of dice with the best family ever.
Carter and Hayden enjoyed playing with cars all night
Love this little grin! This is his excited/proud grin. I LOVED seeing this each time he opened a new toy he loved.
Playing a little keyboard with Uncle Matt

Christmas morning at my parent's house
He was SO excited to get his new kitchen!
Skyping with Grandma and Grandpa
Since we were at my parent's Christmas Eve, Santa came to our house Christmas night, and Carter got to open MORE gifts on the 26th.
There is that adorable grin again!!
He is now in total car heaven! 
Look how he lined all his cars up while Eric and I opened our gifts. This cracked me up!! 
More sweet grins..... so proud to have a new playset!
This time of year I am always reminded of our many blessings and how lucky we are to have such perfect family and friends. Carter is one lucky little boy to have so many people that adore him, and I have a hundred new toys and no where to put them to prove it! The joy on my baby's face when he opened his new gifts made all the hectic budgeting, searching online, shopping, hiding, and wrapping totally worth all the hard work it took to pull it off!
