Starting to Like Playing Dress Up

Addie received some dress up things from Santa, MeMe and Cousin Ainsley!

Eve Cousin Carson wanted to get in on the fun!

"Playing" Tourists In Our Very Own City.

With Chris, Heather, Carson and MeMe in town, we decided to take an impromptu trip down to the San Antonio river to eat dinner and look at all the beautiful lights! The Nash Family (Heather is 26 weeks pregnant.)

Addie and Carson had such a great time playing nicely at dinner.

We just played tourists and it was so much fun! We even made a trip into the "Chocolate Factory" to get dessert. Here is Carter with the S'more that we split.

Carter's Very First Trip To The Movies!

Carter got invited to his very first movie by his best friend Cash and his mom. He used his Christmas money from Uncle August to buy his ticket.

Once he gave his ticket to enter, he found Cash at the snack bar line.

His first movie was Alvin and The Chipmunks.

Carter sat and watched the entire 90 minute movie perfectly and drank a big Sprite, therefore with 4 minutes remaining in the movie, we had to leave to use the restroom. This was Carter, Terri and Cash right when the movie was over!


I am assuming this is where Carter and Cash were "discussing" the movie while walking out until they found an old picture booth!




What a fun afternoon it was!

Christmas Morning!

Carter and Addie woke up Christmas morning to find Santa had in fact been in the house. Laying on the plate of cookie crumbs were 2 silver bells that Santa had left from his sleigh.

After a quick breakfast and arrival of Pops, we started by opening stockings.

Then it was off upstairs where Santa had left the bigger gifts.

Carter found his big boy bicycle and Addie, her car!

It was amazing having my father, Bill "Pops," here the entire morning of Christmas. He has done it for the last 3 years and we all look forward to it each year. He helped both Carter and Addie with every single gift they received.

They spent lots of time setting up and playing with the enormous Hot Wheels jumping race track from MeMe.

What a wonderful Christmas morning with our family including MeMe and Pops. We wouldn't have changed it for the world.
