Good news! I found our Christmas pictures! They were magically still on my computer (just in a weird place) after the iPhoto crash. Yay! So thankful...
 |
| Two.little.peanut.cousins. Christmas Eve we had a late afternoon supper at my house before the service at church. The 'ol vintage playpen has come in handy many a time! |
 |
| Beware, the Squinter. Pretty good, though, for all the grandkids! |
 |
| This picture means so much to me. I'm just amazed at God's gifts this Christmas! |
 |
| Whoops. Got a little out of order here. Daddy read the Christmas story just before we turned in to bed. |
 |
| Blurry, but this is proof that yes, I did let my 3 1/2 year old accident prone angel hold a lighted candle. Parenting fail. The blur is because it was at this moment that I realized, "Clark has a candle!". Phone thrown down. |
 |
| We left some cookies for Santa. |
 |
| And since it's SO hard to wait when you're a kid, we did the sibling exchange before bed too. :) |
Santa delivered!
 |
| Mary's goodies. Santa knew she needed formula! And she doesn't have a stocking yet because Mommy hasn't started it. But we've got 10 months, right? HA |
 |
| AnnMarie's favorite gift---her American Girl wardrobe. Oh, and Justice clothes. Santa knows where to shop! |
 |
| Clarky got the totally awesome Bat Cave. He is Batman most days around here! |
 |
| "I just want the wrapping paper!" |
And then we headed over to Gigi and Papa's to see our cousins!
 |
| Train table action |
 |
| That afternoon we went outside to play with some of our stocking stuffers. Santa can't resist buying blasts from the past! |
 |
| We headed outside to let the boys test out the big wheels from Gigi and Papa. Might need just a little more time before they're quite ready for these! |
 |
| Later in the week we set off to Midland. Here's a pic from the road trip! |
 |
| First stop: Mexican food! Only the best! Mary was chowing down on the guacamole. |
 |
| I think Mary Claire looks just like a real doll in this picture! |
 |
| Clark showing off his new jacket and Buzz Lightyear PJs. Gamma and Pepaw always spoil us! |
 |
| Opening and opening! |
 |
| The Malibu beach house! Her favorite gift. |
 |
| Mary got her first baby. |
 |
| Mary Claire loved sitting with Kenneth and drinking his tea. |
 |
| Playing with Gamma |
Lots of sweet time with our Midland family. And lots of good Mexican food. :)
