Christmas

Before leaving Florida to go home to visit family for Christmas we had our own celebration with our little family of four.
Since Chris & I got married, we always go out to dinner on our Christmas Eve. This year we went to Red Robbin.

Ainsley and Mommy

Tyler and Daddy with ketchup on their faces.

On Christmas morning we lit...turned on a fireplace...the kids were amazed.

Next came stockings...

After Ainsley finished hers she 'helped' Chris with his.

Then came presents. Ainsley got a pink princess dress.

Tyler got a remote control race car.

We next celebrated Christmas with Marda's family in Oklahoma...Pictures to come.

Then it was on to Texas for Christmas with Chris' family.

We finally got to meet our new niece & cousin Avery. She is so sweet!

Ainsley bonded with her right away.

Tyler loved Avery too, but then had to move onto more action...like rough housing with Uncle Brandon.

Or hanging out with Rowdy.

Our final stockings...Santa must have been very pleased with us this year.

Gigi & Grandpa gave the kids sleeping bags with their names on them. Now they're ready for a cousin slumber party!
