We made the trip to Montana this year for Christmas at Nana and Papa's house. We got a quick cousin photo. Back Row Tanealya, Riley, Taylor, Aiden (Sabrina's kids); Middle Olivia, Emma and Marcus (our kids) and front is Annaleigh (Taylor's boyfriend's daughter), Jaxon and Aiyla (Tavein's kids). Tavein and her kids came all the way from England!
Nana's elf on the shelf left a note for the kids at the front door. It said they could actually hug her just one time.
Olivia was all over that!
Emma gives snuggles.
Marcus loved on her too.
Aiyla wanted nothing to do with it...she just knew she wasn't supposed to touch the elf.
On Christmas Eve Santa came early to surprise the kids!
Marcus seemed shy...Santa totally called him out on not brushing his teeth and told him he needed to do a better job...Thanks Santa!
Olivia got her turn.
Emma did too...the crown on her head is from an English tradition that we did at dinner...we popped poppers and there were fun toys inside.

Tavein's kids were still off on their time zones so they didn't quite stay awake for Santa...
Nana and Papa.
Santa gave each of the kids an earl present too.
They each got a personalized book!
So cool!
Nana read all the kids "The Night Before Christmas"
Too cute.
Hi Marcus.
Then we went outside to throw the reindeer food the kids made earlier that day.
Nana has some amazing decorations.
The cousins left and our kids put out cookies and milk for Santa's return.
Olivia wanted to show off her decorations on Marcus' present from us...she is such an artist.
Christmas morning came quickly...Santa brought us a Karaoke Machine!
We got Marcus his first gun.
We got Olivia a guitar.
And we got Emma a complete art set...with an easel and all!
The girls tried out the Karaoke Machine...they sounded beautiful.
Then they went out to play in the snow with Aiyla and Jaxon.
Daddy tried out Karaoke too.
The time went way to quickly.
Thanks for having us!
We got home to lots of snow...the kids got right to work clearing it off.
Good work Olivia and Marcus.
Loves for Lily.
Winter Wonderland.
Merry Christmas Everyone! What a great 2016 it was!
