The Lukers: Merry Christmas!

Christmas was very exciting around our house this year! Now, Harrison had no clue what was going on, but he did enjoy a lot of paper!!
Saturday night, we headed over to Jeff's dad's house for Katie's birthday dinner and gifts. Amy always makes tortellinis (they're delish!) Katie turned 16 this year, so it was extra special!

The kids playing.

Reese wanted to help Aunt Katie open her gifts. :)

Katie's cowboy boots from her parents.

I had to get one of him with his little hood on.

Christmas morning, I woke up around 5:30 (yes, I know.) I got up about 6:15 and watched a little t.v. I was very shocked when the bedroom door opened around 6:30 and out walked Jeff! We decided to go ahead and open our gifts from each other, that way, when Harrison woke up, we would have it out of the way. Jeff spoiled me this year. He got me a beautiful new watch and a pair of riding boots. I got Jeff a Daniel Moore painting of a play during the National Championship game a couple years ago. He also got a lot of stuff for his new truck.

Harrison finally woke up around 7 or 7:15. He ate, and then we sat down to open his gifts from Santa and us. Jeff and I were much more excited than Harrison.

My mom, sister and everybody in Alabama head to my grandparents' house on Christmas morning for breakfast and then gifts. With technology these days, we were able to Skype on Katie's phone and see everyone! I was so excited. Usually, on Christmas morning, I have a little sad time because I can't see everyone. This year, I did! It was awesome. I do wish I could have been there with them, though. :)

Later that morning, I cooked a little breakfast and Telena, Jarod, Reese, Natalie and Mike came over. We ate and then opened gifts. Harrison racked up!! Aunt Teeny, Uncle Jarod and Reese got Harrison a book called, "My Very Own Pirate Tale." It has Harrison's name within the story. It was such a neat gift. He got toys, clothes and books!

That afternoon, we went over to Jeff's dad's house for lunch and gifts. We had turkey, ham, potatoes, mac and cheese (made by Teeny) and green bean casserole. I was stuffed!!! Again, Harrison made out like a bandit! This kid is not short on anything!

After that, we went over to Mike's daughter's house. We did gifts for the kids over there. Harrison got toys and clothes. By the end of that, we were all exhausted!!! Harrison had only had one nap, and his poor little eyes were so heavy. We made it home around 6:15 that night. Harrison got a bath, and he wen to bed. He slept from 7 that night to 7 the next morning! Poor little guy was exhausted from all the festivities.

We had such a wonderful first Christmas with this guy! We are so blessed to have such great families that we can share Christmas with.

Enjoy the pics!!!
