Christmas Morning

Christmas morning was a lot of fun. Luke was so happy when he saw Spike the Dinosaur. He said, "Just what I always wanted!" He played with that awhile before he even noticed the other gifts. Emma Cate was a little bit scared of Spike, so she was very cautious for awhile. They have spent all day exploring and playing!!

Christmas in El Dorado

We went to El Dorado for a long weekend to celebrate Christmas with Mimi, Pop, Uncle Chase and Addison. Luckily, we opened gifts on Friday night, because Luke and Emma Cate both ended up with a stomach virus the rest of the visit. Here are a few fun pics:

Emma was happy to be there:

Addison learned how to climb a tree!
Fun opening presents!

Breakfast with Santa

Luke and Mommy had a date this morning. We went to the library for breakfast with Santa, and Luke had a great time. He ate muffins while Santa read a book, then he sat with Santa and told him that he wanted Spike the Dinosaur for Christmas. Very sweet!!



I Love a Sleeping Baby!

I saw a commercial one night that showed sleeping babies, and it choked me up. So, I decided to take a few pics of Emma Cate when she was sleeping that night. She looks so beautiful!
