Our Christmas...

Our first Christmas as a family of four. Here are some of the highlights...

Our peacock tree.

Doodle, our elf.

Fun with cousins at the family Christmas party. Thanks to Kate, Troy, and Katie for hosting this year!

Raph being on Christmas break for a couple of weeks is such a treat.

My sweet Arlene stopped by for a visit and to get some snuggles from Sophia and Henry.

The day before Christmas Eve we traveled to Lynchburg to celebrate with the Sydnors. Tpa catching up with his great-grandson.

Sophia loves Jody.

Thanks, Tpa for the beautiful doll!

Marbles!

Catching up with cousin Emily.

Christmas Eve is here...

Sophia had a ball playing with these sweet kids at Bett's Christmas Eve party.

Do you think this girl is excited! Heading to bed and very ready for Santa!

Early Christmas morning...our girl was running down those stairs!

The sleepy but excited crowd.

Pop assisting Sophia on her new balance bike from Santa!

Yay for Christmas! Henry clearly likes his new wagon.

Stockings!

Pop opening the tie that we made for him. We also made matching ties for Raph and DD with Sophia and Henry's hand prints. Sophia's hand is the Santa and Henry's hand is his hat. Many thanks to a wonderful elf, my good friend Tracey, for helping to make these gifts possible!

Christmas hugs.

The best gits of all...

After an action packed morning at G and P's, we got dressed and headed to DD's for Christmas breakfast.

And, more presents!

Henry caught up on his sleep while we were at DDs.

Then it was off to church to keep the nursery during the service. Henry's still sleeping!

We headed back home and after her nap Sophia found her stocking from Santa.

Opening her jewelry box from us.

And, Sophia got her very first pair of five fingers from Daddy. Henry was on nap number two of the day so we opened his presents the next morning.

Then it was onto Granny Herndon's for a yummy Christmas dinner.

Sophia had so much fun playing with her cousin Gabriel.

Dinnertime!

Fun at Granny's Christmas night. Sophia was taking lots of pictures with her new camera!

The next morning Sophia helping Henry with his stocking.

This is the look that Henry gives his big sister.

Sophia was so excited about finding oranges in the toe of the stockings!

It was an exciting Christmas season! Looking forward to this new year and all the adventures it has in store for us!
