Lucas had quite a busy calendar for his first Christmas! His first round of presents and good tidings was at Grandma and Grandpa Bakke's house along with his Uncle Brian and Auntie Jackie. We were also joined by Lucas' Great-Grandpa and Great-Uncle for dinner. It was a wonderful day!
Lucas hanging out with Grandpa and waiting for the festivities to start!
Lucas got all kinds of fun things in his stocking!
As did the grownups!
I still can't decide which stocking stuffer I liked more - the straw glasses or the elf microphone...
Our festivus miracle: a Cardinals win in overtime!
So let me get this straight... these are all for ME?!
Of course, Lucas' favorite toy was an empty box.
What Santa doesn't bring me Grandma will. Truer words were never spoken. Both grandmas are such spoilers!
(Don't judge my bad lighting - I was still getting the hang of my new external flash that Santa brought me!)
After a beautiful meal and a long day of presents, laughter and good memories, Lucas was suited up in his pajamas and got to play in his toy basket for a while before we read The Animals' Christmas Eve, a book Brian and I had as kids, and then it was time to drift off to sleep to the creak of grandma's rocking chair.
