All of my siblings live somewhere around Nashville so we planned to have our family Christmas the morning of New Years Day. We had our traditional monkey bread and sausage balls for breakfast and after Christmas celebrations we had our traditional New Years pizza while we watched the football games.
We took tons of pictures but I know you don't care about what we each got so here are just a few. Lillian enjoyed helping everyone open their gifts and then was over it all after about 5 gifts.
This face says "wait a minute how did I end up in Uncle Nick's lap? oh that's right he bribed me with cookies!"
My Dad loves Sanuk sandals. He literally wears them all day everyday. (except Sunday morning church). Plus this was a great picture of him.
Another big gift for my dad was a barrel thing. I don't remember if he is going to use it for his tools or for a rain barrel but he was excited.
Probably the most special gift of the day was my sister bought a keyboard and learned how to play the piano part of the song "Layla" by Eric Clapton. My dad has always wanted to learn how to play that as it's his favorite part.
Santa also came to visit for some pictures. Lillian finally sat next to Santa once we convinced her it was just Papa and we had to sing "if you are happy and you know it" and "building up the temple" to get her to smile.
Santa and his elves! (my brothers looks just a like in this picture)
Mr. and Mrs. Claus
Also I want everyone to know how much we enjoy looking at your Christmas cards. They are still on our refrigerator because Lillian loves to point to all the babies and doggies. We didn't send one out this year because I planned on it being a picture of her with Santa but she was not about Santa at all so please know we love getting yours and will make sure we send each one of you one next year!
