Christmas Celebrations with Family

Christmas in Memphis with my mom's family. We have the best time visiting, eating, watching the kids open gifts and playing dirty santa. Such a great time of year to celebrate Jesus with the ones we love!

We always head to Lula on Christmas Eve to spend the day. Lunch at Pappy's house and of course opening gifts. The kids had so much fun and got so many cute things. Paige brought cupcakes and Lucy Kate was loving that! Bryant had to much with Uncle Allen drawing all over him, including a big "b" on his belly. Too funny and a pain scrubbing it off that evening. Next we headed over to Charles' dad's house and opened more gifts. We are so blessed to have most of our family so close to home.

Toooooooooooo cute

Daddy Please Build a Fire

They love the fire and ask Charles everyday to build a fire. Bryant informs us over and over that the fire is hot! So glad he keeps us in check

Circus Fun

The circus came to Memphis so we had to get tickets! We went with the Harris family and the Livelys and the kids loved it. I have always loved the circus and it still amazes me! Lucy Kate and Bryant loved the Elephants and the tigers of course and the best part was that I got out of there without buying a bunch of junk.

Little Ladies Luncheon

Too cute Ladies Luncheon hosted by Ms. Mary Mason Dunn! Lucy Kate had so much fun as they had a story read to them, a formal brunch, coloring and just playing. We look forward to doing this every year from now on!
