Christmas Day, Part 1

 SANTA CAME... We had a wonderful Christmas Day which started bright (actually dark) and early at 6:30.  Called my parents and they headed straight over.  Got our coffee cups filled and woke up the kids.  Karoline specifically asked for a Rapunzel Baby Doll, luggage, and a radio/ speaker for her iPhone. Anderson asked for Dr. Porkchop (the pig bank from Toy Story), luggage, and also a radio/ speaker for his room. Santa delivered along with a few more goodies... snow cone maker, golf clubs...
 We know Santa is an Auburn Fan so we wanted him to feel at home...













 You can't really see, but Anderson got Gandaddy a video of the Auburn/ Alabama 2010 game. 




We enjoyed a YUMMY breakfast and then got ready to pack up the car and hit the road... part 2 coming soon...

Christmas Eve

We spent a lot of the day doing this...
 Well, at least Buster did anyway :)  After a pretty relaxing day TJ had to leave early to get ready for Wellspring's second Christmas Eve service and the kids and I went later... They were SO cute in their new outfits Gammy got them... Anderson's first tie :)  He was so handsome!



 But of course he had to play a little football before we left :)

Wellspring had 2 services, one on Thursday for those leaving town and one on Christmas Eve.  We had about 340 + attend and they were AMAZING!  It was a beautiful night of singing Christmas Songs and focusing on the birth of Jesus Christ!  I posted a few videos of the band at the bottom...

 After we had our traditional Ruben Sandwich dinner at our house and the kids got into their PJ's to get ready for Santa to come... Hope they are on the nice list :)...






Opening song... AMAZING!!

Oh Holy Night

We had a beautiful and yummy "Christmas Dinner" at my parents on the 23rd since we knew we would be headed out of town Christmas Day. The kids got to open a few gifts from Aunt Leigh and Uncle Brent, Grandma, and a few from my parents. It was a great, relaxing evening!














Christmas At School...

SANTA and his crew greeted the students on their last day before winter break!  

Karoline's class had a cute winter festival. It was pajama day but this Mom didn't get the memo. I dressed her in a super cute Christmas dress and in the drop off line the tears started coming as we watched everyone walking in with PJ's... so I went straight home, and straight back to the school with her Christmas PJ's...





Yeah, I forgot my camera to Anderson's school performance but some friends got a few photo's for me. He was so cute and loved singing on stage... wonder where he gets that from :)
