Christmas Day 2013

After our sweet family morning Sadie had a nap while we got ready.  For lunch we headed on over to Tyler's parent for Christmas with them.  Somehow these are the only pictures we ended up with.  Sadie got lots of sweet gifts from his family and we had a good time.

We went back home so she could nap and rest before the big night ahead.  Around 5 we went over to my parents for Christmas with them and Chip, Vanessa and Eliza.  Before we really got things started my grandad, better known as Papa C, stopped by for a minute.  We had to have a few pictures with him.  He will be having open heart surgery very soon so please everyone keep him in your prayers. 

We took some family pictures as well....

There are way more picture attempts that look like this than the other!
This is greatness.

Love LOVE these sweet girls

Then it was time to get down to business!  We let the girls open all of their presents first.  My mom got them kitchens and it was so precious to see the look on their faces when they saw them.  Priceless!

Eliza decided she needed to try and get in to the kitchen

Then Sadie decided she would like to try

Poppy help!

Next the big kids had our Christmas with each other.  We visited for a while then headed home.  Sadie Lea was worn out!

We had such a wonderful Christmas! Every year with our sweet girls gets better and better.  We can't even remember life without them.  

Bring it on 2014!

Christmas Morning 2013

Sadie was really good this year so we woke up to see that Santa had come to our house! 

Santa even wrote Merry Christmas to our sweet girl!
He (Tyler) was very creative with his letters ;)

Pretty sure this ended up being the favorite gift of all!

I actually had to wake the sleeping beauty up to let her know we had had a visitor during the night.  She was a little unsure when she walked into the living room.  Please excuse my morning beauty..

Silly girl

 Then she finally starting digging in! Especially the slide. I have heard "slide down slide down" no less that 1,000 times since Christmas morning.

Even Mickey and Minnie had to slide down

BOO MAMA!!

Of course you have to take a family picture on Christmas morning, so here we are in all of our gloriousness....

Christmas Eve 2013

Christmas Eve started off the same as every other year since I can remember...getting up before the sun is up to get ready to go to my grandparents house! We have always had this Christmas early because at one point some of the family had to be at work...meaning we had it at 5:30am...those days have changed at we now have it at 7:00.  My moms side of the family is very large so it takes time.

tooo early for family pics

my big helper!

We headed home after breakfast to rest and hang around the house.  Christmas Eve we have the Turner family Christmas.  Dinner was delicious as always and we had a great time visiting with everyone.

After a wild night we headed home to snuggle up in our beds so Santa could come!
