Christmas 2009

We had a wonderful Christmas this year. Morgan is at such a fun age and enjoyed every second of it. I am sure it will only become more fun in the years ahead. This year we stayed in town since I am so close to my due date. I missed spending time with my family in El Campo but there will be plenty more years to come to celebrate with all of them. On Christmas Eve morning, Bryan’s mom called and told us that Blake (Bryan’s brother and his family) just got into town after their 18 hour drive from Tampa. We were all still in our pjs but just packed up and went to visit. We were excited to see them!! We hadn’t seen them since our beach vacation with them at the end of July. Morgan enjoyed visiting her cousins, Austin (2 ½ years old)and Callie (1 year old).



While we were there it starting snowing!! Who knew that would happen?!? Morgan borrowed Daddy’s sweater cap and ran out to play. She loved it!





After playing for a few hours, we headed home to let her nap before church and Christmas Eve at the Baughman’s. She played a little more in the snow before heading to bed. She was so excited!!



A White Christmas Eve that we won't forget!!



Our family pic after church.



More pics from the evening.

Callie and Morgan...



Gammy and her grandkids (It was impossible to get them all happy and looking at camera, but we tried :))



On Christmas morning Morgan was excited about opening her presents. As soon as she saw a new toy, she wanted it out and put together. We had so much fun watching her! There is nothing better than seeing Christmas through the eyes of a toddler.



Little People Happy Home...

Bryan and Morgan went out to run on the slippery sidewalk after opening presents...



We went to Brent and Julie’s on Christmas Day around noon. It was fun to spend more time with Bryan’s family. Here are a few pictures.







Mema with great grandkids...Again, it is impossible to get 4 toddlers under the age of 3 to pose for a picture.



On Saturday morning we went to tell Blake and his family bye. Morgan and Austin decorated a birthday cake for Baby Jesus because we didn't get to it on Friday.



Later that day my mom, Bobby, Kristie and her baby, Colton (11 months old) came to visit. It was so nice of them to make the trip to see us since we were unable to travel. Morgan was super excited to see them! We managed to get her through opening all her presents from the El Campo crew after about 2 hours. She loved all of her gifts!! Here are a couple pictures.





Morgan's new kitchen from Grams and Gramps. It is hard to get her out of her room these days because she is always cooking up something. :)



Colton and Morgan playing...



We are so thankful for all of our family. We love spending time with you all and so does Morgan!
