Best. Christmas. Ever.

We were fortunate enough to celebrate Christmas with so many loved ones. Friday we had breakfast with Granny and Pappy and dinner with Brandy, Wesley, Ernie, Abby, Mammaw and Pappy.
Saturday Emelia had a friend visit and they got to meet Santa Clause!! Then we had Granny and Pappy over for pulled pork in root beer sauce and went to a beautiful and touching church service.
Christmas morning we woke up to nibbled cookies, an empty glass of milk, and presents under the tree. Emelia had lots of fun!! Then we loaded up and headed to Granny and Pappy's house for cold turkey sandwiches from a turkey cooked on the grill, saw uncle Dusty, and then Mammaw and Pappy came over to our house to visit and have some taco ring for dinner.
Monday afternoon Gram and Grumps came to visit for two days. It was a VERY busy few days, but we're still chugging along!!

Here are just a few snapshots of our adventures from our Best Christmas EVER!

A Goode time with the Kreitzers

This past Saturday we took a family visit to Sunbury to see the Goode, Kreitzer and Walter crew. I wish we could post all the ADORABLE pictures of Emelia opening her gifts, but we'd be here all night uploading. Just thought we'd give you a sneak peek of our seemingly endless Christmas festivities!!

What a pro!

"Alright. I pulled on the paper. Now what do you want me to do?"

My Aunt J and Uncle M. I haven't seen them since I was 9 days old.

We are reading "Harry the Dirty Dog," a book that I got. I LOVE books!

Check back soon for more!!

Pajama Thursday?

Emelia and mommy have a special tradition of staying in their PJ's each Friday. They haven't been able to have Pajama Friday for a few weeks because mommy has been teaching. So today they adjusted their tradition for the very first Pajama Thursday!!
Enjoy the pictures of Eme playing in her "B" PJ's!! 

Mark here...

I downloaded the Blogger app so hopefully that means I'll be more apt to post on here. I look forward to see how this whole blog thing works out!

Thanks to Granny and Pappy Mummert for letting us "borrow" their fireplace. And MANY thanks to Ashley Shultz for yet again taking wonderful pictures of our little rascal and her doggies!

Smooch!
