We wish You a Merry Christmas

Mackenzie, Sophie, Breanna, and Halle with their Beany Boo Babies Christmas Day

This is Breanna, right after I told her we got her a new bicycle (instead of the doll she asked for) for Christmas. No drama in that girl....

After Shellee, Aimee, and Jason rode Bre's new bike, she decided it looked like fun and came outside to try it on for size....

 

Christmas Jammies

Twas the night before

Christmas....

The grandkids all decked out in their Christmas Eve jammies.  We had such a fun night over at Shellee's house. We had dinner and then the kids put on their jammies and danced to Bre and Halle's Christmas

program music. So Cute!

All she wants to do is *dance*dance*dance*

The little girls had their Christmas Dance Program at Murray High School on Saturday Dec. 17th. They were all adorable in their sparkling dresses and make-up.  It is definately the highlight of the holiday season!
