"Christmas Adam" and Christmas Eve

On December 23 (or "Christmas Adam") we drove to Greenville.  Here we are all packed up and ready to go, including Antonio the Elf, who we found all buckled in that morning!



After a quick stop at Gran Gran and PePa's to unload, we headed over to Nona's to meet up with Granmommy, Grandaddy, Kelsey and Bethany for a yummy dinner!

We spent most of Christmas Eve at Gran Gran and PePa's house.  Randy, Dana and Kendra arrived, and that evening, we all went to church with Gran Gran and PePa.




After the beautiful church service, we all went back to Gran Gran and PePa's house for dinner and to prepare for a visit from Santa!

 Both kids made reindeer food at school, and they very carefully made sure it got sprinkled around the yard for the reindeer to enjoy!



Leaving cookies for Santa!

2011 Christmas Ornaments



Celebrating Christmas at Home

The day before we left for Greenville, we had our own little Christmas celebration at home...

 Getting ready to open a few presents from under the tree.




 Reagan's card that she made at school especially for Mommy and Daddy.

 Peyton's special ornament made at school.


 This is how he decorated his gift bag for the ornament...  the yellow/orange structure is a cannon shooting a Christmas tree.

 Reagan's special ornament from school.

 Both kids received tents... Peyton was a little confused since he thought he had asked Santa for a tent.... He wondered if Santa would bring him another tent.  We told him that Antonio the Elf would tell Santa that he had already received a tent and that Santa did not need to bring one after all.  In the above picture, the kids are playing "beauty shop" with Reagan's new hair/make-up toys inside of Peyton's tent.
