Christmas Part 2- With Nanna

We arrived and Kitty Kat MawMaw's house around 9am.... Eli was so happy to see Nanna. He loved tinkering with MawMaw's stuff.... lots of things to discover at Kitty MawMaw's (Eli's great grandmother)

MawMaw's house is packed on Christmas morning. Logan and family comes in from South Carolina, Luke and family from Kerville, Debra and family form La Grange, and the rest of us close to Magnolia, such as from the Woodlands and Spring.
We have a tradition of only one gift opened at a time... so everyone can see what everyone receives. It doesn't always work out but for the most part, it does.
Another tradition (that is sort of new) is if you give someone a gift card, you must present it with a homemade gift. Jer drew Uncle Joe's name so he crated a "UPS... what can brown do for you" Santa. Joe works for UPS, loves beer, and shops at Luke's Locker. So Jeramy's presentation was a Santa with a beer in one hand and a gift card with a sign "what can brown do for you this Christmas" under the other. Here is Joe inspecting his Santa. I think he was a bit disappointed that the can was empty! haha
Another tradition is that everyone.. I mean everyone... gets new PJs every year for Christmas Eve. Since we were not there, we didn't get ours until CMas Morning. All the guys received Smurf PJ pants and since Jer has told them he wont wear them, this is what he received!
Full house.. this is only one of the angles.... from left to right...

Eli strutting his stuff... looks like he is raising his hand up and saying

"That's it! There is too much going on and I am going to sit down!" Gabby and her Daddy, Roger... posing for the camera

Eli opening his new book and reading it...

Donna gave Roger a "special gift"... a bag of candied nuts... wrapped in boxers!

Yes, it got a little risque!

Another angle of the full house...

look closely... you will see Logan's big mouth opened wide in a yawn....

Eli loved opening his gifts!!

Jessica and Logan had Asher 4 months before I had Eli. They are expecting another boy as well. Her due date is 4 days before mine with Aiden.

This was the best gift ever! It is Baby Genius Nursery Rhymes DVD.

Eli loves it! Thank you Heather and Roger!

Eli received this iguana hat from cousin Trey...

he wears it around the playroom sometimes being silly!

Eli loved playing with Asher. Here he is sharing a cracker with him.

Eli looking around... sort of looks like he is saying... "Who took my toy?"

Eli loves his Nanna

After all the gift opening at MawMaw's, we went to Nanna's to open more gifts! Eli slept through it on the couch... It was too much for him to handle.

What a day! There was a total of 32 people at MawMaw's this year... it was definitely a very Merry Christmas!
