Part 2- Papa and Connie's Christmas

Monday we headed out to the farm for the first official Christmas!
Connie instantly smooched on Lukey.
Papa got to playing with the boys, teaching them silly tricks.
"I gotta go doze over something quick, I need down"

Once we hit the basement Ethan became a famous tractor driver! Beau was his first customer!
Hang on Beau, Ethan is at the wheel!
 
Getting the next load. 

Next up, Drew. Drew was so chill in there. He has this amazing clapping ability, but no clapping, just holding while in the wagon!
They went round and round!
No words to describe the cuteness on this one!

Last but not least, LUKE!
"This is more like it, a quicker way to get around and Ethan is doing all the work!"
Connie made a fabulous meal while we were all playing!
After we ate all the Midwestern cousins gathered around the Floridian! This was a tear jerker moment. All of them playing with each other and having a ball!
And then there were too, the 2 would could just walk away.
Dads and dudes. Yes, Brad looks like he wants to kill, or maybe he is just worried he is going to have to split up the hammer fight between Luke and Drew.
Brad and his babies.
Onto presents! Ethan was quit the little elf passing out all the gifts!

Luke trying to figure out how to get it out of the bag. Great grandma Butcher got the all adorable white ISU sweatshirts. SOOO bummed we didn't snag a pic of them all in the shirts!

Opening gifts with Luke was a dangerous event. He was OBSESSED with not ripping open the gift, but chewing the paper off to see what was inside.  I scooped out several wads of paper!
Always so fun to see the boys and their families!
Andrew, Melissa, and Kelby
Beau and Bri
Yep, more paper chewing!
Ethan has always enjoyed putting on "shows" He had the ultimate stage on the fireplace!

This was Show 2 of 4 I think. The last one being at midnight.
Connie and the boys in the Christmas Jammies!

I just love these....



Ethan's shirt says it all- OH WHAT FUN we had!!
