Christmas 2010

We had a busy, but blessed Christmas! We started out the festivities at Scott's mom's house on Christmas Eve. Uncle B came too, and we all enjoyed Chinese food and opened presents. Getting there was a little scary as it started really snowing on our way there and the roads were horrible. I was a nervous wreck with precious cargo aboard, but we made it there safely. Clayton got a big Buzz and Woody that interact with each other, a game, and some money. Buzz and Woody were a huge hit! Hollis got a floor gym, clothes, and money. It was a nice evening.

The next morning we had Christmas as a family before my mom, Scott's dad, and Uncle B came to join us for breakfast. Daddy stayed up late putting Clayton's train table together so that he would walk out Christmas morning and it would be the first thing he saw. He was so excited...he kept saying "choo choo" and "all aboard". He is really into trains and he has loved watching Polar Express this Christmas. Hollis got a cherry toybox with his name on it. Besides the big gifts, both the boys were spoiled with lots of toys from the grandparents and uncles. Clayton was quite overwhelmed by it all. He had a difficult time and was a little overstimulated by all the people and presents. Both my boys are blessed to have so many people who love and adore them. Mommy and Daddy have the best Christmas presents in the world...two healthy, happy, beautiful boys!

Christmas night we went to my Aunt Alice's. I always love going there and spending time with our extended family. We all live really close, but don't get together often enough. Somehow we are really close even though we don't spend enough time together, we just pick up where we left off, and more than anything we are always there for each other. We enjoyed appetizers and presents. Everyone enjoyed having Hollis there for his first Christmas. Clayton enjoyed playing with his cousins.

The next day we headed to Fulton, TN for Scott's side of the family. I always love spending time there as well. I wish we lived closer! I am so lucky to have married into such a wonderful family...I feel as though I have always been a part of it and now my boys are blessed to be a part of it as well. We enjoyed a wonderful lunch and present exchange. Once again my boys were spoiled and Great Granny Mullins enjoyed seeing the boys...I know she wishes she lived closer and we do to. It was a wonderful day and the boys did so well on the long drive there and back.

I am thankful this Christmas for all that God has blessed me with!
