On Wednesday night before Christmas, Nanny and Poppy and Mimi and Bob came to town to spend Christmas with us. It was in the 70's and the weather was beautiful. Our favorite neighbors The Caffreys came over and we had a yummy dinner complete with games afterwards. I apologize for the crummy pic's..I'm certain that not only the Twister players but also the photographer may have been "over served"! Ha! Either way you get the idea..we had fun!
Even the Daddy's got in on some Twister!
I just love Mimi (Bob's mom) playing some twister:)! You rock Mimi!!
The next day was Christmas eve and we woke up to colder temperatures. We spent the morning just playing around the house. After lunch we put Reese down for her nap and Bob and I left to go workout and make a last minute grocery run. By the time we got back the weather was getting crazy and the snow was coming down.
My parents had planned to get up early on Christmas morning to head back to OKC so they could spend Christmas with my brother and his family but decided to just hunker down and stay with us as OKC had already gotten around 10 inches of snow!
We all got dressed and headed to church for Christmas Eve. I love this picture of Reese with both her grandmas..I know when she is my age she will cherish it!
After church we came home to eat Bob's seafood gumbo which is an old family recipe. Reese enjoyed helping with the finishing touches and it was YUMMY!
Then it was time for Reese to get ready for bed. She left this cookie and reindeer food for Santa. We tried to get her to leave the reindeer food outside but she wanted NOTHING to do with the cold and snow!
As soon as she went to bed "Santa" went to work getting things ready. Reese had been requesting a pink balloon for over a month but "Santa" thought a dozen pink balloons would be more fun:))
Reese got some balloons and a vacuum from our Santa and a cute pink shopping cart from Mimi's Santa!:)
