My o' my. What have I done to myself? Christmas time is so hectic now that we have kids! Apparently I have not uploaded my pictures in a while and now I have over 400 pictures to choose from. (and that is only from 1 of 2 cameras!) Maybe I have a problem, maybe I'm a picture-taking-aholic? Ohhh no!
Anyway, we had a wonderful Christmas and got to see most of our families. Paul's family came out first and we had a great time with them as usual. It was so cold while they were here though so there wasn't much to do other than hang out at the hotel and at the house. Big D kinda gets restless in that situation, but we worked it out. Here are some pictures from that trip.
After the Pursley's left, we headed to my parent's house in Greers Ferry for some more Christmas adventures. Courtney had a blast decorating Christmas cookies (well, she liked to eat the frosting at least). She also got to play with her cousins which she LOVES. Courtney and Carter buddied up and were so stinkin' cute together. We would find Courtney sitting on Carter's lap watching Nemo. I think those pictures are on the other camera though. Either way, all of us girls (me and my 3 sisters) were there with our kids and husbands for Christmas morning. I guess it's been 8 years since that last happened - wow! Courtney got the hang of opening presents pretty quick, but not so much on the waiting her turn part. She now wants to open any present she sees.

Courtney's prize possession from Christmas...
Other than that, Dad turned 50!!! Holy cow, I can't believe my father is 50. Alissa and I got to take Dad golfing on his birthday since it was 60 degrees outside. (global warming is awesome for golfing!) Alissa was the high scorer which means she won in her opinion. :-) I actually did pretty good, only shooting 6 more than Dad. (no official scores to be released on the internet, too risky)
So now it's the new year and I am excited! New things to do, new adventures to have, new experiences to experience. :-) We hope you all had an awesome Christmas season, and we thank God for all we have!
