A very fun Christmas

It all began the weekend before Christmas. We went to a party w/
Justin's (dad's) side of the family. Addison had a blast playing with
all her little cousins. We had some good food (thank you) and great
company.

Then, after all the plates were clean, we headed downstairs
and Santa and Ms. Claus came to visit us. Addison was so
darling. She was so excited to see Santa and get the gift he
brought for her. (Addi's finger prints are on the camera lens,
and we didn't notice until after a while, so sorry for the blur).




Christmas Eve, Addison and I made some sugar cookies.


She was a cute little helper, but became bored too quickly

during the baking time.

Christmas Eve Grandma, Papa & Uncle Travis spent the night

w/ us.

Christmas Day we woke up to see the loot Santa left for us.

Addison got an indoor trampoline (because she LOVES to jump).
She also got a princess bike. My sweet hubby refinished some of

my childhood toys (a cabinet and a baby cradle) and we gave that

to Addison - and she loves them.

Papaw & Connie came over to watch Addi open her gifts.

Christmas night we went to my Nana & Bumpa's home.

Addison made out like a bandit there too!

Addison, Justin and baby Dylan.

Brooklyn, baby Dylan and Aunt Susie.

Nana and Bumpa hung up stockings for us over the fire. Inside

we found $50.00 in a book of $1.00 bills. It was fun!!

By the end of the night, Addison was pooped and

ready for bed. We left Nana & Bumpa's home about

midnight and drove home in a winter wonderland.

A perfect Christmas!!

Santa ~ Addi calls him "Ho Ho Ho"

We took Addison last week to see Santa. She did really good and wasn't too afraid as long as I was by her side. She and I went up to him and I put her on his lap. He asked what she wanted for Christmas and I don't think she really understood, so he said can I bring you a baby and she quickly said "yeah". He told her he had a candy cane for her in the basket. She got down and got 2 candy canes out, one for her and she turned back and gave the other to him. It was pretty sweet of her. She can be pretty thoughtful :)

We hope you all are enjoying your holiday season!
