The Return of the Four Christmases!!

We were so blessed this year to get to spend so much time celebrating the holidays with family. We started out Dec 23rd at Nonnie and Papa Joe's. Yums had a great time swimming before everyone arrived and handing out presents after dinner. He even worked up such an appetite that he had cleared his plate before most of us had finished serving ourselves!! He was SO excited to get a new GREEN bike from Nonnie and Papa Joe! He literally hasn't gotten off it YET!!

The following day, Christmas Eve, Grandmommy and Granddaddy came up on their way to GA to celebrate. After a good 30 min spent blowing up the kayak once they arrived, we finally got to surprise him with it!!! Thanks Grandmommy and Granddaddy for such an AWESOME gift!! We all can't wait til the weather warms up to really take it out on the lake!! Oh, and if I do say so myself...I cooked an amazing dinner for everyone!! :)

Christmas morning started at 6:45 with me insisting that Yums GET UP!!! The very first thing he opened was his aquarium ("lake machine" as he was calling it for the longest time!). He was so excited and we can't wait to get some fish in a few days once the water has a chance to acclimate. We let him open his Santa presents and then waited for Grandma, Grandpa and Gee to come over to open all the family gifts. To see we were overloaded would be an understatement!!



The best part of it all was getting to enjoy it with the people we love most!!

Now...enjoy the photo OVERLOAD!!!
