Merry Christmas

After Cole spent the last week with his Baca, he came rolling back into town with his Mimi, Papa Jim, and Mamaw Cass.  I'll warn you now - this post contains tons of pictures, but who can resist snapping photos of two darling boys with a new zoom lens (yea for me thanks to Clay & Mike!)?!

Cole, my Mom, and Jim first made a pit stop to take a ride on the Polar Express.


And Santa Claus gave Cole a real sleigh bell!


Christmas Eve


Tate LOVED this little elf that Mamaw had fixed to her walker.  He would go up to it and love it, putting his cheek against it.  Pure preciousness.  


Mimi and Tate


Baking gingerbread cookies


Cole tasting the goods to make sure they are Santa-worthy


Tate loving on Smiley the Elf again


The family on Christmas Eve


And the first (of too many) gifts...


A plush Angry Bird for Cole from Tate!


Tate's roller walker from Cole


The bus from Aunt Kayla, Uncle Hunter, and Sawyer (and cue the very tired baby mid-way through opening gifts)


Mamaw, the best mashed potato maker EVER.


Jim and Mike with their matching tripod lights :)


McMissle Spy Jet was a favorite


So was the Angry Birds board game


Coming down the stairs Christmas morning


Santa brought Cole a skateboard, a pretend Swiss Army knife, a tarantula, new ski clothes, and a very full stocking


Santa brought Tate a wagon, a new coat and hat, and a stocking full of fun gifts


Merry Christmas from two very lucky and blessed boys!




Our very own "Angry Birds!"

  2. I was in need of a Nugget picture, and low and behold - my little Nugget in the very same wagon I just purchased for Avery! I'll send you a picture when it arrives. I think Avery weighs more than Nugget and Hugo combined. I also think that an 80 pound basset hound in a Radio Flyer wagon will make for an awesome photo.
