We made it to St. Charles for our break in record time. The boys got started making themselves at home. And even managed to get a card game in before bed. (They're definately Bickels)
Wednesday night we headed to Great Grandma's house for Christmas dinner with the whole family. And after dinner....Santa showed up! Luke was glad he came but didn't want to get too close. Ben knew that big bag had gifts in it so he made sure he was first in line.
As the night wore on Luke decided to get comfy and relaxed on Uncle Les.
Christmas Eve we went to church with Paw Paw and then took some pictures in front of Grandma's pretty tree.
I didn't even have to set them up for this pic!
The best family picture after Ben decided he was done smiling for the camera.
And right before everyone came over for the Miller party, Santa stopped by! We thought they might like to spend some time with him without a whole bunch of other kids around. It didn't matter...Luke still kept to the other side of the room and Ben went right up the big guy and sat on his lap. Amazing how a beard and red suit can fool a 3 year old.
Tried to get a cousin picture...Mya was all about it. She was the only one. They're holding cookies which we used as bribes, Ben took his cookie and ran.

Scott read a story about Santa reminding a little boy about Jesus being the true reason for Christmas.
And then there were lots of gifts to open.
And after everyone left we set out cookies and milk (and carrots for the reindeer).
