Merry Christmas (Part 2)

Champs on Christmas morning was something I never want to forget.  Barrett and I went in together when he started calling for us and said good morning. (Thank the Lord he's been on a great sleeping roll and it was about 7:15 when he woke up.  Very lucky for Che and Poppy :)  We asked him if he knew what today was and he said "Jesus' birthday!" We said yes and asked if he knew what else.  He said his usual "tell me" and we reminded him that Santa may have come to see him and that it was Christmas Day.  He quickly reminded us that he had seen some lights in the sky the night before that might have been Santa and the reindeer.  Poppy and Barrett showed the lights to him when they were outside on Christmas Eve and he was mesmerized!!

Barrett brought him down the stairs and I was ready with my phone videoing.  Here is him first seeing that Santa had come and brought his Gator Truck!!  I got the biggest kick out of him immediately thinking he wanted to go find Townsend!

Here are some more pics with Santa stuff.

First time riding!!

After getting his Santa gifts and opening a few more from Che & Poppy, we headed to Florence for Christmas Day at KK and Boo's house!  Champs was so excited to go there and he got more great presents there.  Lucky little boy!!  I always wish I had more more pics of Champs with all his family members, but it's so hard to arrange everyone to get together for pictures while in the moment.  He had a wonderful time at KK's house, but I sadly don't have any pictures of him with them or with my parents!  UGH!  Must do better!!

After a good nap at Sandra's house we headed back to Bishopville for our annual Christmas night at my grandparents house.  Let's just say Champs and his cousin Julia had the best time on Christmas night.  Check out all the cuteness of them together!

All of the Bell Great Grands who were at Christmas this year!  Sadly, Drane and Anne and their girls couldn't come this year.

It is such a fun tradition to get together with all of my cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents and siblings every year at my Grandparents.  They were so hard (with a lot of help from my mom and Uncle Crues too!!) to have us all every year!  I would like to note that my granddaddy had us vote this year as if we were voting in the Republican primary.  It was fun and interesting to see that Donald Trump was the Republican nominee according to our poll!  We'll see what happens.....!

After Grandmama and Granddaddy Bell's we went back to my parents house and opened presents with them and Will & Ashley (after getting Champs to sleep!).

The highlight was when my mom opened up her SURPRISE tickets to Adele in Madison Square Garden in New York next September.  We all tried to get tickets for them on the day they went on sale and she thought we were unsuccessful but Will in fact had scored 2!!

The second best was Will & Ashley giving them their wedding album book.  Let's just say Will was the winner in the gifts this year ;)  Good thing I am giving them a new grandchild in January!! :)

What a VERY MERRY Christmas it was!!!
