A Late Christmas Post

We hope everyone had a good Christmas....we sure did! It was a busy one, but a good one. We were able to travel back home to the Carolinas and see both sides of the Family. I have about a billion pictures, so I will just post the highlights....which is still alot..but oh well. I hope you enjoy.

Cooper got a big ole' bone for Christmas...he was one Happy Dog

Zoey's First Christmas

On Christmas Eve, my whole family traveled to a small town about 30 minutes away from my parents house in Monroe, NC. My dad knows this guy that owns a big ole' farm with all kinds of animals on it. Addison was in HEAVEN!! It was a lot of fun and the grandbabies had an absolute blast.

That evening, it actually snowed on Christmas Day in Charlotte. First time since forever! The next morning, we woke up to this:

A gorgeous Winter Wonderland

The parentals house in the snow....absolutely gorgeous

Addison, Macey, Uncle Blaine, and Nana Sally all helped in building a Snowman

Mike and I have snowboards and have been storing them at the my parents house...how convenient for us b/c we busted them out and took them for a ride down the neighbor's hill.

As you can see, the snow was not good snow for boardin' and I biffed it first thing.

All the grandbabies ready for church in their Christmas Outfits from Nana---
Will, Sunny, Macey, Zoey, Addison


Later that week we all made the trip out to Grandpa's Farm. The men hunted and the ladies hung out at the Farm House.

And that brings us to the end of our trip....sorry for the whirlwind of the events...but there are WAY too many to post...trust me, I am doing you a favor.

We hope everyone has a Happy and Successful 2011. We are so excited that this year has FINALLY come. Mike will be graduating in July and we just have so much to look forward too. Happy New Year, everyone!!
