Relaxing Fun

We went out to eat with Mark, Kim, and Hope to Main Street Pizza.

The girls wouldn't cooperate for a quick picture.

Joey made me cinnamon toast for breakfast. Guess who ate most of it?!?

Lydia love swiss cake rolls as much as I do, she just eats them much messier than me...

  

  

A ten foot long alphabet puzzle is a cool gift for a 2 year old!

She loves it!

 We opened gifts at Grammy and Papa's house since we didn't know if we were going to Raleigh to visit my brothers or not.

Merry Christmas 2011

Santa brought Lydia a Play-Doh Ice Cream Parlor.

We opened presents at home with Joey's parents.

Putting together the barn.

The roof wouldn't snap properly and proceeded to come off repeatedly, but guess who fixed it later and it hasn't come off again. :)

We're getting two apple trees.

Helping Grandma

Then we went to visit Ma Rea and Grammy and Papa.

Gramma and Grandaddy's house was next. Lydia needed a nap, but refused to lay down. We caught her resting between lunch and presents.

My family loves to give my child cool whip!

Bev's gift was a custom ABC book of our family!

Judy's present.

Whit and Liz got cross-stitch pictures made by my Gramma!!!!

Thank goodness for Ice Age while the adults played the traditional White Elephant game.

Joey's family gathered at Matt and Becca's for supper. Lydia thoroughly enjoys playing with her cousins!

Reading a book before bed in new PJs and slippers.

A very long Christmas Day filled with family, love, and laughter was had by all!

Christmas Eve

Joey suggested we open our stockings on Christmas Eve this year. Lydia really got into opening the gifts this year and this was a great warm up of what was to come the next day.
