Dudley Family Christmas, Take 1 and 2

Our Dudley Family Christmas was divided into 2 events this year.  John's brother and his fiancee planned to spend Christmas Day with her family, so we celebrated with his immediate family on Christmas Eve, and then celebrated with the extended Alabama Dudley family on Christmas Day.

Happy Birthday balloons to baby Jesus

Big Sister was excited to play Santa, helping pass out the gifts

We all pitched in and gave Grammie a new camera!

She going to need it to record all the events of 2014 

(both of John's brothers are getting married!).

Papa Jack made Little Bud an awesome car shelf in the shape of a truck

Big Sister changed out of her Christmas outfit into pajamas after she saw that

Little Bud was getting to wear his pajamas to the Christmas Eve get together.

She loves to be comfy!

she was pretty excited about this little pencil from her cousins and Aunt in NH;

she's had lots of fun using it on the iPad :)

On Christmas Day, we went back to John's parents house around 1:00 for family time, 

lunch, presents, and the annual Dudley Dirty Santa game.

Little Bud has been strangely afraid of Uncle George for a while, but 

he (thankfully) decided that he was an okay guy on Christmas Day.

He even let Uncle George help him open a few presents :)

excited about the glitter glue in her stocking from Grammie and Papa.

She loves crafting!!

snake slap bracelet and a candy cane glow necklace :)

Helping Grandpa Dudley with his Santa duties

Big Sister's cousin opened a box that had a staple puller...

and opened another box with money stapled together.

I'm sure she had fun pulling all the staples so she could spend the money ;)
