christmas day!!! {with the uncs*, aunt, + gran&grandpa}

around noon, my parents and siblings came over to celebrate christmas with jack (us, too, of course, but you know he's the main attraction!). *jack calls his uncles, "unc". too cute, we roll with it!

bike riding!

swinging on our porch swing (a awesome surprise from unc jd)

the costanzo spread

jam session with unc david and.........................

LESLIE + JAMIE!!!

jk and les drove up to fairfield (solely for snacks, we know), and spent time with jack and chowed down at my parents' house. they left full, that we made sure of. it was such a fun surprise!

christmas morning!!! {santa came!!}

christmas eve traditions continue.

family pic. it's blurry and i should've taken the time to crop, but i'm behind in blogging...

another christmas eve tradition is opening one present. that present is always new pjs. so everyone matches - pics in the morning are much more presentable that way!

i think jack thought there was something a little more exciting than pjs... in the morning, little jack, you won't believe your eyes!

opening daddy's for him, too!

his top said, 'santa's little helper' and the pants were santa faces. precious.

the stockings were hung by the chimney with care. bailey, mommy, jack, daddy, and pepper.

cookies for santa.

making cookies on christmas eve has always been a family tradition - after all, santa needs fresh cookies to keep him going all night! i wanted to share the experience with jack, so while he napped i pre-measured all of the ingredients for these cookies.

all ready to mix!

such a fun time!

this discovery was jack's favorite.

sneaky boy!
