Christmas Eve from start to finish

Christmas Eve morning, we got up early, got showered, got dressed, and headed to Nanny and Papa's house for our traditional breakfast. We had a wonderful breakfast casserole, bacon, eggs, biscuits. I can't remember what else there was, but it was a ton of food, for just Allen, his parents, and brother and sister, Corbin and I.
THE FLASH SEEMS TO MESS WITH THEIR EYES. :) 

 AUNT LULU IS AN AMAZING ARTIST.



                                                    ISN'T THIS PICTURE JUST PRESH!

CORBIN GOT A LEAPSTER LEAP FROG GAME THINGY. HES TEACHING NANNY HOW TO PLAY.

CORBIN PLAYING WITH 1 OF MANY OF THE TOYS HE GOT.

Corbin also got an awesome recliner, from uncle Justin. You will see it in other pictures later on.
After we ate opened gifts and enjoyed each others company we left and headed to uncle Jim and aunt Jennifer's house, to give Allie and Mykenzie their gifts.
THE FLASH MESSED WITH ALLIES EYES AS WELL! Showing off there gifts, Allie got a baby doll and Corbin got a build-a-bear.
THEY WERE GIVING EACH OTHER A KISS GOODBYE. (they kept moving before i could get the picture, so Jennifer tried holding them in place.) 
too bad Mykenzie was at her daddy's for Christmas. we would have loved to gotten to see her.

 On the way to Manchester for Pa and Granny Rogers Christmas shin-dig, we made a pit stop at Nana's to give her her gift. She absolutely loved it because Corbin handed them to her.
She got a quilt and sheets for her bed.
we even got her dog Sophie a scarf.
.
We finally made it to Granny and Pa Rogers' house for their Christmas Eve Dinner.
 Four generations of OUTSTANDING men.
 Granny Rogers loves Corbin to pieces. He's there only great grandchild.
He gave every one there a "plu shot" with his doctor kit he got. He's obsessed with the moon so he got a moon lamp that goes through each phase. One every night.


We almost lost Pa Rogers a few weeks ago. He has a blockage in right leg that we found out about a year ago about, but all is caused by smoking.  He was taken to St. Thomas and put on a vent to help him breathe. He had pneumonia, but is now home, and doing ok so far. Hes now on oxygen, but hes still here with us. We thank God every day hes still here.

I know its a long post, but I promise the one for Christmas day will NOT be as long, just more pictures.
