Christmas in Dixie, Part Une

The first Christmas celebration that we had this year was in Dothan.We are so lucky to have so many family and friends there that are special to us!!! On Christmas Eve, we got to see Fran, Phillip, and sweet Lucy. Lucy has gotten so big! I can't believe that she will be one soon.

Lucy and her Dad Phillip showed us their amazing feats of strength.

Then we went to Grammy and Grampy's house where Margaret Anne got to play piano with her uncle Jordan.

And Margaret Anne really liked hanging out with Grampy, Grammy, Max, Chipper, and Sparky. She also got a cool new musical toy with a real microphone!

On Christmas morning, Margaret Anne was ready to see what Santa brought for her. But first, Nonna needed a cup of coffee.

What are we waiting for??

The first present...

I think she likes it!

And Santa knows how much she loves Blue!

Look at this precious stocking from Nonna! Santa put lots of goodies inside.

We were so very blessed this Christmas! After we had a bath...

And we all, including Nonna :), had our coffee and got ready...

We went to see this very special family, who we love so much!

And Margaret Anne loved seeing Mama Jo!

Daddy got a SUPER cool shirt from Santa.

Thank you for having us uncle Alan.

And aunt Sandi!

We love you so much.

We were so very blessed this year. We are so thankful that God sent his son Jesus to earth to be born and show His grace. We know that this time is not really ours but His, and we are so very thankful to be allowed this time together to see each other and know how much we are LOVED. What a wonderful way for God to show how much He loves us!

I hope all of you had a very special Christmas too.
