Merry Christmas!

Our Christmas this year was so fun!  Lily loved her presents; Stro and I had a great time buying her gifts; and our families got to be together.

Here are our mantle and tree!

 

The day before Christmas Eve, I braved what I thought would be a super crowded mall and got Lily's picture taken with Santa.  I caught one red light the whole way there and back, got a super awesome parking spot in the garage, waited behind one family to get Lily's picture taken, and waited behind one man to check out when I bought something!  Awesome!

Two years in a row of not smiling, but not crying either!

On Christmas Eve, we went to Stro's parents house; his mom's family was able to come in from Mississippi.

Cute in her dress from Mimi!

Playing with her cousin Natalie

Yum, Aunt Neva!

Four generations

Something was funny!

 

That night, Stro worked hard putting Lily's new kitchen together!  It is so cute!

 

Like I said, Stro worked hard, haha

A rite of passage for dads...putting toys together on Christmas Eve!

All ready!

 

It was so fun to watch Lily play in her kitchen the next morning!  She also got an adorable backpack, a new cup, some pajamas, books, and a toy.

 

 

Later that day, my family came to our house.  It was fun hosting everyone!

 

A grocery cart to go with her kitchen!

She loves to slide!

Love this!

Photo prop fun!

 

 

We had a great Christmas 2015!
