We spent Christmas morning at my mom's house playing with new toys, making mini donuts, visiting my grandpa and his Christmas decorations and getting ready to travel to Des Moines for our big family Christmas. Larkyn wore her Christmas dress during the morning because she was sleeping before we went to church on Christmas Eve and we didn't get the opportunity to change her. Larkyn opened up a new Christmas dress for her baby doll the night before from Grandma Debbie. We put the girls in their matching dresses for pictures by the tree!
Christmas Kisses for Baby Jesus II
I just love this face...
Larkyn wanted to help Grandma Debbie wrap some last minute presents for Great Grandpa Ralph!
We went over to my grandparent's house to show Larkyn all of my grandpa's decorations. My cousin MacKenzie set up all of the stuffed animals on the floor just at Larkyn's level! The Santa and the white elf in the distance are over 50 years old! 
Larkyn and the giant Santa, Mrs. Claus and elves!
Great Grandpa Ralph and LarkynHe was showing her his snow village, the ski hill, and the choo-choo train.
In the afternoon we traveled to my aunt and uncle's house near Des Moines for our big family Christmas. My mom is the oldest of five and four of the five have three children, the youngest has two. The whole gang, consisting of 28 of us, spent the night in the same house! Larkyn enjoyed seeing and spending time with her cousins, aunts and uncles. It is a family tradition to read a Christmas story and/or do a family activity. This year after my cousin Kayce read a story, we split into groups to come up with family memories starting with the letters in the word FAMILY. We also usually go bowling on our Christmas gatherings, but we decided to stay in for the night to play games. 
"M" is for Many Majerus Memories, Montana Caravan, Many Grandchildren, Marvelous Chocolate Chip Cookies by Grandma Barb, and Much More!
Larkyn was intrigued by Cousin Luke's hair. It's actually a lot like her Daddy's!
The Majerus Clan...28 beautiful people!
"Hmm...I wonder what is in this one?"
"Oooh, a new tractor and tractor crayons! I can't wait to use them!"
"No no no, like this..."
