Christmas...

Some pictures of our family Christmas with my family and Graham's family...


Since we went to Oklahoma for Christmas this year and I was a little late in getting our decorations up, I only put one tree up.  I didn't use any ornaments this year (except for some balls) and just used ribbon and picks...it was different that usual but fun for a change.  I will definitely go back to my traditional trees with the ornaments next year!


Merry Christmas from the three most precious babies around!

Mason was most entertained by the bows :)


Emma's first big girl bike! (Gifted by Manna and Poppa)


My older two kids never paid much attention to the tree when they were a baby. Mason, on the other hand, couldn't get enough of it!


Lunch with Janza and Grandpa!

Dinner with Uncle Alan and Car Car!

Sweet baby.

There may not be much documentation of us...but here is proof that we were actually around :)

Nannie gave the kids these light up necklaces that the LOVED!

Santa has arrived!

Emma got lots of new makeup for Christmas and was excited to use it all :)

Nothing cuter than a baby boy in a smocked longall :)

Decked out in Christmas pjs!

Santa?!

December...

This month has been BUSY!  There have been so many fun Christmas parties that we have been able to go to - I love this time of year!  Northwestern Mutual had their party this month and even had a surprise visit from Santa himself!  Mason was a little unsure, but the older two were thrilled!


Photo shoot with the older two while Mason was napping!

Mason loved the Christmas parties this year :)


Watson's teacher this year, Ms. Tina, is amazing!  We are so thankful for her!!

Watson, you are a JOY!

Emma has LOVED her first year of dance!  These sweet girls have done so good and their teacher, Ms Gina, could not be better for them.  Here they are at their Christmas party...

Mason really got into the holiday spirit this year :)


Mason loves his Melly

The Christmas Dinner at The Club is always one of my very favorite things we do during the Christmas season.  Spending a night with all of my family, eating good food, seeing Santa and watching the kids dance the night away...it doesn't get much better than that! 


We made the drive to Oklahoma this month for Christmas.  I have never been more thankful for our library than I am before we make these long trips!  Emma is holding a small tablet that reads stories to you - the kids LOVE these so I always stock up on them before we leave town.
