reliving christmas number two

The Lucks christmas began late late on christmas day, when we arrived (some more bleary eyed than others) at their home after 11pm....but that didn't stop us from celebrating a second christmas morning the next day, and what a day it was!

first thing, Robert had to greet his favorite cousin Adelyn by getting up in her face to watch the snow together...because well, he loves he so much and she couldn't wait to see him either!

Then after opening a few presents it was time to head into town to RIDE THE TRAIN...now, my son has been talking about his adventure on the train for the last two weeks, and although a bit shy at first, the family train ride from Cville to Staunton certainly only served to fuel our passion for trains....

First things first, check the schedule to make sure we know when to get off, Adelyn clearly thinks he's a bit OCD, but he comes by it honestly, that's for sure:
Then, we calmed down and really enjoyed the ride!
After a nice nap and recovery time for mommy from that ride, it was time for presents! Robert got a special treat because his great grandparents, the Carltons, came by for a visit. Watching my little man play trucks with his Pop Pop Carlton was a blessing for us this christmas for sure:

Then, we played a little race cars with our new track from Aunt Emi and Uncle Steve....

By that time, our two little ones we completely tuckered out...but not so much that they still couldn't have a little fun while laying on the floor with their blankets...."Hey Rob, guess what, we get to wake up tomorrow and open more presents!"

And that we did...two full days of christmas the Lucks left our little family tired, yet well rested, full, yet craving more fudge and arriving back to richmond with a car full of things gifted to us from people we love...we are so lucky.
