We were very lucky that Jay got to spend Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with us. We didn't think he was going to make it. Christmas Eve has always been the big nite at my parents. We had a blast. 
The men conversed while my mom, my sister, and I put dinner together.
The tradition on Christmas Eve is just to have a whole bunch of appetizers set on the island in the kitchen. We all circle around and snack on them till its time to open gifts. 
Conner was all about helping Memay get ready. 
He was more like the taste tester!
Jack, Conner, and Mac enjoyed a little lemon and lime left over from the Martini's!
Mac is quite the vocal little guys these days!!
He was talking up a storm with the guys and just about anyone. 
Conner was persistent about getting a drink of Jay's Margatini so here is the outcome....
He decided to stick to apple juice!!!
Auntie E and Conner have dinner. When all the food was on the counter, Conner got up on his stool, and with the most classic look on his face he yelled, "DINNER". It was hilarious, he couldn't believe we got to eat off of everyplate standing up at the counter!
Mac bounced himself around the kitchen while we ate. And by that I mean literally, he bounced the bouncy chair around the island!
And this is the classic Mac face that he makes all the time. We think he does it because Erin hates it so much!!!
Jay had to help Memay because Jack wanted her martini pretty bad!
We had to watch Conner because he likes to sample then put stuff back!
And then it was time to open gifts, Conner could barely contain himself. 
All Jack was interested in was the tissue paper!
And then came the big gift of the night.....
And then he got his first bike/tri-cycle. 
He was pretty stoked. I don't know who was more excited, Jay or Conner!
Conner was even really good about letting Memay have a turn!
And then they rode together. The really cool thing about the bike is it has foot pedals on the back for a rider to stand on. I know in a couple short years the boys will be flying around together.
Conner and Memay Christmas morning.
Uncle Brock playing with the boys while everyone got showered and ready.
He is very serious about riding his bike.
Helping Uncle Brock build the marble machine. 
By the end of the day all the boys looked so tired. They could barely keep their eyes open when 6pm rolled around.
He didn't make it to 6:01pm! We had a wonderful and relaxing time in Ellensburg for Christmas. It is always a good time at my parents. Thank you Papa and Memay for a wonderful Christmas. We love you lots!!!
