Christmas Day!

Christmas morning at our house started early! Ford had lots of gifts from Santa. Santa had also left him a not and eaten the treats we left him! He also left Ford a special Christmas ornament. Soon after we opened gifts at our house, we headed off to my parents house to have breakfeast with my mom's family! It was so yummy, and Santa visited their house too! Ford had a great time opening gifts there. Thank you to my parents for the wonderufl meal and all the gifts! We also spent time with Gabe's parents that afternoon, before heading back to my family's as well! It was a big day, and in the end, we were very grateful to be home and rest! It was a wonderful Christmas...the best Christmas yet. I loved spending time with our little family!the loot on Christmas morningsassy lips...inspecting his ornamentSanta's left oversmy parents houselove you hubby!

For Christmas Eve, we go to Gabe's parents house to celebrate! Ford had a blast. He got lots of great gifts, and he got to hang out with his new cousin, Noah. Thanks to Gabe's parents for having us for yummy food and fun company:)I love this one...Gabe looks way too excited!Cousin NoahA little to tight of a hug:)our tree that night

The days before Christmas...

Adam and Anna brought over some Christmas gifts for our little family! They got Ford a cute little puffy vest which he loved. And baby no. 2 got a sweet little blanket and soft onesie! They are so sweet and precious to us! Ford also loves them and playing with them.

Last week we went to lunch with Riley, her mom, and her grandma! We went to our usual spot...Puffy Muffin. It of course was so good, but very crowded. We let Ford and Riley play afterward outside. They were so cute together!

Ford exchanged gifts with Nolen and Ella Tate 2 days before Christmas too. We went to eat at Bread and Co for breakfeast. The kids had a blast!

The day before Christmas Eve, Ford got his second haircut. Above is the before picture. We went to Divas and Dudes in Cool Springs. Ford did not like getting his haircut this time. He did so well with his first haircut, but this one was pretty bad. But it turned out to be pretty cute suprisingly!getting off to a rough start

Pictures with Santa

A couple of weeks ago, we went to see Santa at Green Hills Mall! We ate at Pancake Pantry before, which was yummy as alway. The fun story from that is when I asked for a booster seat to sit in the booth, and the lady brought us a sugar box. I in turn said no thanks that won't work....then she stated..." Well we've been using it for 40 years and it has worked!" My bad lady, so we ended up it on the floor so she would give it up! Our friends, the Guthrie's and Alsup's minus the dads, went with us. It was a great time! Ella Tate was the only one who was a little unsure of Santa. But all in all it was a great time!

It's the most wonderful time of the year....

Well, I guess it took me long enough to post pictures from Thanksgiving! We ate at 3 places this year on Thanksgiving Day. Needless to say, it was a very busy day. But we had a wonderful day together!Ford and his cousin SydneyFord, Nan Nan, and B-daddyWith Noni and Papa

Last Saturday, Dec. 5th, we went to Emily Reeves and Sam Carbine's wedding. It was a pretty day to get married, plus it was a special place, because Gabe and I got married at Whiteman Chapel almost 2 years ago!After the wedding we had some friends over to our house to watch the SEC championship game! We ate some Jet's pizza and have yummy desserts. The children had lots of fun playing together!Here is a group shot from the ornament swap at Courtney's beautiful house! We had a great time eating and stealing ornaments! Thanks for having us over Courtney:)
