Christmas morning, Ben's family met at his mom's house for breakfast. It was delicious. Too bad Ben and I had just eaten waffles before we headed up to Momma Tami's house. Shoot! I was sooo stuffed. Here are Ben's grandparents and his brother-in-law, Glade, with little Marley. Ready for breakfast.
After breakfast we all headed downstairs to play and open presents. Ben's niece, Ava, helped me open my presents. She is so cute.
The happy, new parents: Jeremy, Brandi and baby Maggie.
Nate is in on the stairs playing with his daughter's pillow pet and Michelle is helping Marley open the piggy and cow that Ben and I gave her for Christmas.
Here comes Marley to thank us for the piggy and cow. Isn't she adorable?

Marley Mouse giving Grandma a kiss. So sweet.
Ava is showing Grandma her new camera while Great Grandma holds baby Maggie.
Ben is helping Tavin and Tate play with the new airplane we gave Tavin for Christmas.
I sure missed the snow this Christmas, but it was great weather for flying an airplane.
Princess Mia in her new Christmas outfit. Man, I want a skirt like that.
Marley Mouse rolling on a ball with her new piggy and cow. How cute is she?
After spending Christmas morning with Ben's family, it was time to meet up with mine. Since my brother, Jason, is leaving for Kuwait-again- in a few days, he offered to host Christmas dinner at his new house.
Jason's girlfriend, Ferarri, cooked a yummy dinner. Thanks, Furry. Here are my grandpa and dad, waiting to eat.
Ready for the party to start: girlfriend Ferarri, sister-in-law Stephanie, sister Kim and brother Jason.
Slugging on the couch: mom, dad, Kim and Steph.
Goofy boys: nephew Devan, brother Kevin, brother-in-law Neil and Jason.
Ben watches as niece, Kami, kicks his butt at 'Angry Birds'.
Time for presents. Jason plays Santa. Check out his tree. So patriotic.
Everyone watches as Kim opens the first present.
Grandpa got a journal and fancy pen to document his amazing life of 90 years.
Ben and I got fluffy new towels and a garbage can that opens with a pedal instead of your hands. Ben was so excited about that.
I gave Devan and Kami some knit hats one of my students made. Don't tell my student that I re-gifted her hats. :)
Ben and I gave Kevin and Stephanie new sheets for their KING SIZED bed. Kevin looks pretty excited about them.
We also threw in some new jammies to wear in their new bed.
Kevin was so excited about his new jammies he decided to strip down in the front of everyone to put them on. (Sorry about the blur. I suck at picking the right setting on my camera.)
Before he got too indecent, he headed into the bathroom. Didn't care enough to close the door, though. Funny kid.
Check out the new jammies.
The jammie crew. This is how Christmas should be: comfy in jammies. {Wow, looks like I need to stop eating Christmas junk food and go on a diet. Look at my BUTT!!! Yikes!}
Merry Christmas from my whole family. Notice my dad still watching the television-just like my niece and nephew. Someone has the attention span of a small child :)
