Since Christmas fell on a weekend this year our usually short trip to Alabama for the holidays was even shorter. David worked until 2 on Friday. When he got home we packed up the car and headed down to Madison for about 24 hours. Christmas Eve morning we woke up, had a homemade breakfast and then exchanged gifts. The little kids are all at an age where they really enjoy opening all of the gifts and seeing what everyone else got. It was so much fun just seeing them interact with each other. After that we went to Granny's to have lunch and exchange gifts with her (details and photos in another post). After several hours with her we headed to David's MeeMaw's for dinner and even more gifts! After a nice visit with the Monger side of the family we drove back to Nashville to meet my dad and Tammy and to get everything ready for Santa's arrival. We put out Oreos and milk for Santa and some special food for the reindeer (dried oatmeal and glitter).

Nico and Eli have gotten closer as they've gotten older. The one year age difference isn't such a big deal now. They had a great time playing together over the holidays.
Gabby and Paw got all of the kids a little sofa/couch thingy. As you can tell, they all loved them!
