Christmas Pictures

I love to take pictures.  What better time than when family is all together? Enjoy.


First set of pictures is our tree.  We all have lots of fun decorating the tree every year because we have so many ornaments.  This year, we only put a handful of our hundreds up on the tree.  Some have been given to us over the years, some came from our parent's childhood, some were made in preschool or growing up.  Each ornament tells a story.  In this first picture, you can see Santa's ornament.  Will made an ornament at church and decided to leave it out for Santa to see what he would do with it.  Christmas morning, it was on our tree.

Will was very observant when we all (all meaning myself and the siblings), came upstairs.  He found "Santa Proof".  If you look carefully you will see that the fireplace doors are open and that there is a footprint in the soot. 

We have always started with the stockings. Always. This year was no different.

Happy girl. 

This year as a family we decided to do something different.  We choose to put more thought into our gifts and attempt to have them all be homemade, or at least an aspect of them.  I think we did a great job!

Yes you can. 

Here are some other pictures from our day!

Of course I had to include Gracie and Charley in some of the pictures! 

After we do our family Christmas, we always go over to Granddaddy and Grandmama's house for lunch and fun!

Deliciousness.

Overall our Christmas season was full of fun, family and love.  Missed those who were unable to make it but the seven of us that were there enjoyed our family time!
