Merry Christmas!

Here is more of our wonderful Christmas time.

We woke up Sunday, on Christmas morning.  Wrong.  Taylor, Lily Kate, and I woke up on Christmas morning.  Lucy decided she was still so sleepy, so this is what she did while we enjoyed our time together:

Lucy slept the whole morning!

 Here is Taylor walking down the hall with sleepy Kate.  Please note the wild hair and the fact that she slept with two blankies that night:

 She first looked at Lucy's new toys...

And then she found hers.  What fun!  She started playing with everything...

 and was so excited about riding her new PINKALICIOUS four wheeler!

Please note that this girl must ride with her baby...

When it doesn't turn the way she wants it to, no problem.  She just gets off and pulls it wherever she wants it to go!

Now she is riding with her baby and her blanky...

We were at Ninnie & Poppy's house at 8:15 (no wonder Lucy kept sleeping, we were up so early!)  Here she is opening her gift from Aunt Ann and Uncle John.  A kitty keyboard!!!  It is so very cute and she loves it.  And I love it.  And her daddy hates cats haha!  

Poor Gage was sick on Christmas...

Ella helped Uncle John open his gift...

what an expression!

Don't you just love sleepy heads still in their pjs!

 

Poppy loving on Lucy...

Here they are, Auntie Ann & Uncle John!

 When the kitty keyboard is on, and you haven't played with it in a few minutes, guess what it does...  It meows!  Then it purrs!  I think it's the purrrrrrfect gift for Lily Kate!  ok, that was a bit cheesy!

My how I love these 3!

And a family pic!

 Then we went to church and had a special Christmas service.  It was so nice to be there on Jesus' birthday...

And then it was off to Grandmommy's!

 

Aunt Ju Ju was telling Lily Kate where to take the presents.  Every time she told Lily Kate to take one to Aunt K K, guess where she took it...  to Chance or Brett!  Sorry Aunt K K, she thought it was funny!

Of course she had a few for her...

 And here we are again in a family photo. 

Aunt K K, Grandmommy, Lucy, Dada, and Lily Kate...

I'm sure I have more Christmas, but at least that's a good bit of what I had to share!  It's now 2012, so off to new topics and fun events!  What will this year bring?????

HO HO HO!

Have you missed me???  I can't believe it's been so long.  I mean, what do I do these days???

Well first of all I hope everyone had a very blessed and happy Christmas season.  We sure did.  We got to go to church, spend lots of time with family, and have present time.  What more could we ask for.

Here are some pics from over this Christmas season.  Enjoy!

My mother and I got this wild idea that would would take Gage (8), Ella (7), Lily Kate (20 months), and Lucy (2 months) to Jackson for pictures with Santa.  What a trip!  The kids were great but it was crazy and wore us out!  On the trip home everybody, yes everybody but me fell asleep!

Here are some pics with Mimi, Aunt Wee Wee and Aunt K K...

Here are a few from Christmas at Mamaw's and Mimi's...

Cousin Julie is helping Lily Kate open her guitar!

Twin Brooke or Brianna (I can't always tell them apart!!!)

Lily Kate loved the box!!!

These next few pics will melt your heart.  This is Taylor's great-great grandmother.  She is 99 years old and still knows and loves Taylor.  All he has to do is walk in the room and she knows it's him -- sweet!  Lily Kate visits Granny every time we are at Mamaw's, and she just loves Granny.  We have a 5 generation pic of Lily Kate with Granny, and now we have one with Lucy too!

look at Lily Kate holding Granny's hand...

Here are a few from Christmas with my family.  Aunt Ann and Uncle John came for Christmas and we had a great time.  They are so much  fun and I can't wait for you to see what they got Lily Kate and Lucy... but I don't have all my pics so I will save that for the next post!

We had a wonderful surprise -- Lindsey got to come!  It has been a year and a half since she was last here, so that was a great Christmas present in itself!  She is 16 now and just beautiful!

Ok those were just a few pics, more to post soon!

How was your Christmas???
