Happy Holidays!










We had a wonderful Thanksgiving this year at our house (mom's been a little out of commission with her back surgery). I even made dressing for the first time in my life!!! I must say, it was delicious!!! Our good friends, Kele and Mike (and their three precious babies--Presley, Mikah ((AKA Maddie's BFF)), and Jett) joined us. We had a relaxed time with loads of good food/lots of pictures/and lots of football!!!

We got to babysit one of our favorite gals, Presley, last Saturday. I sent Keith and the girls to church so that I could get lots of lovin (not before we crowed Miss Pres with pics though). The one I'm attaching cracks me up because Presley is giving Maddie and Grace a look like "you girls are crazy!"

Keith and I took Madeline and Grace to see Santa at Bass Pro on Saturday. They got all dolled up and were so excited to sit in Santa's lap. We were the second ones there so we got lots of Santa time. After sitting in his lap and giving their Christmas requests, we took pictures. Then, Grace had to show Santa her written list AND have him read it to HER (just in case she missed something). We stayed and looked at the fish, turtles, and stuffed Grizzly Bear. Then they made reindeer hats and colored Christmas pictures while having hot cocoa. It was so much fun!!
