On Christmas Eve, we went to Mamaw & Papaw's house with the rest of the family. There were about 30 of us total. Rachel & Dustin didn't get to be there b/c his family was in town. It was a blast! For some reason, it wasn't near as loud as normal and it was far more organized.
Here is Joshua sitting patiently waiting to open presents.

Papaw reading the first 22 verses from the 2nd chapter of Luke....The Christmas Story.
Uncle Sam was the one who did most of the work on the addition to the room. The whole group never would have fit without it. They did a really good job. So, Aunt Sharon & Uncle Sam got to open the first present.
Here is Joshua on one of his turns to open. He loved opening presents.
Here is Joshua just chillin with Uncle Rob and Daddy. See how patiently he is waiting for Daddy to open his train?
We had a picture taken of all four great-grandkids for Mamaw & Papaw.
Joshua opens another present.
...and another...this one is jammies! From Sandie, Steve & kids.
...and another...this one was a Thomas the Tank Engine shirt. Thanks Sami!
Look at how packed it is!! This is with the addition! The addition added another 50% to the room...imagine how packed it was before.
Katie assists Mamaw with a bow.
Joshua decided in the middle of all the chaos that Pappy needed a good wrestle. Pappy laid down to take a picture and Joshua jumped on top of him.
Here is Joshua's reaction when things got a little too loud.
Joshua opens a gift from Mamaw & Papaw. Train engineer bibs and a hat!
We had to demo the hat.
He unwrapped the package and the box was taped shut. Before Papaw could get his knife, Joshua had daddy's and was trying to do it himself. He is so big! What other 17 month old do you know that knows how to use a pocket knife??? The knife was closed of course.
Here he is pulling the bibs out.
After most people have left, here is Joshua hanging out with Aunt Canyou.
He was a very good baby that night. That is a whole lot of chaos for a little boy to deal with. He did just peachy.
