Christmas 2011
I was so lucky and got to spend the Holidays with these guys!
Nativity Walk
It was a chilly -12 degrees. It was cold but our hearts were warm!
Christmas Eve
Our friends the Ritchies invited us to go on a horse-drawn sleigh ride, pulled by two Blond Belgian horses.
Blond Belgians
Ben and Amos
Our Christmas Eve festivities included fixing and eating some good food, going on the sleigh ride, playing our annual game of Christmas Bingo, (with amazing Dollar Store prizes) and watching The Forgotten Carols.

Such handsome men. They clean up nice!

Too much Christmas fun.

We All Got To Love On This Cute Thing!
Brittin Loves Aunt Paige!
And Aunt Hailey!
And of course, Aunt Marissa too!
And the cool and handsome Uncle Mitch.

But honestly, this guy was her favorite. He didn't try to entertain, sweet talk or bribe her. He didn't have to do a thing. She just liked to sit on his lap and chill.
She also loves Grandma Grandma!
(I'm pretty sure she is not supposed to be playing in there......)
Having a bowl of oatmeal with grandma.
I loved to get up with her and have breakfast together!
Brittin liked grandma's Christmas tree. A little too much. I talked to her, and explained that the tree was just to LOOK at. "No, no," I would tell her when her cute little hand would reach out to touch. It was so pretty, and the bulbs were so shiny and sparkly! So hard to resist! I spend a lot of time putting the bulbs back on the tree....... Brittin was a quick bulb snatcher! She would take a bulb off, and promptly, and ever so nicely, hand it to the nearest adult. My favorite tree moment was when I saw her walk past the tree, shake her finger and head, and keep on walking. :) It's a good thing I love her so much!
Life for me doesn't get any better than when we are all together. Thanks to everyone for spending the Holidays with me. I love you all!
Here's to an amazing 2012

aren't nieces (or in your case grandaughter's} the best? so glad i got to see you once over the break! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat post!!! I'm glad you had a great holiday season. It's funny that you like to get up and have breakfast with Brittin. My mom does that with Tay every time we stay the night. She gets her up and feeds her and they have their "grandma time" before most of the house is awake :)
ReplyDeleteI'm so jealous you had snow, and I'm dying to know who this Kimmy is :)
ReplyDeleteHey, glad we were there! At least for dinner! I think I need a copy of that Bingo game...I'm sure the red and green M&M's are the biggest hit! Just think, in a few months it will be wedding time! HOORAY!
