Christmas in Oklahoma

After Christmas morning at our house, we packed up and left for Edmond around lunch time. Griffin usually sleeps at least half of the way, so it is a pretty easy drive. Halfway through, we stopped for gas and a diaper change and let Griffin "test drive" the car. He was very excited, and then became very serious about his job...



 I love this look of concentration...this is what he looks like when he plays with his toys, too.



Christmas is held at Scott and Cherie's house, and it is always a lot of fun. The Orr's waited to Skype with Brandon (on his mission in SLC) until they got there, so we all got to see and chat with him - that was awesome! He got to see Griffin for the first time :)

The nieces and nephews draw names for their gift exchange, as do the adults. Ashley Merkley drew Griffin's name - he got the cutest little OU jacket, very handsome.

He got to sit in the official opening chair, but wasn't so sure about it...



Hugs for Ashely, but more importantly, the piece of paper in his hand...



Griffin picked Shelby's name. and he got her a cozy flannel pj set from Victoria's Secret 




We stayed for a couple of days, and Griffin got to play with and help Daddy and Uncle Scott outside





(The child sure love his Bink...)



Griffin's first Christmas was wonderful. We were so excited for him! He is such a good boy.
