Christmas Catch Up

We had a wonderful Christmas and were beyond blessed by all the lovely gifts but especially time with family and friends. We opened gifts from the Braley side of the family the Saturday before Christmas so as not to transport to and from Blakely. Sam had a blast and Walt enjoyed tasting all the new, fun things. We opened gifts with the Alexanders on Sunday. It is so fun to see how excited all the kids get over their fun new toys that they get to play with together.  Santa left a few things for Sam and Walt on Christmas morning at Gran and Papa's. We even had a surprise when we got back. Santa (really Gramma and Grampa) left a new table and chair set for Sam and Walt at our house while we were gone. Again, we were so blessed by the generosity of our family this Christmas and we can't thank y'all enough.

Let the opening begin.

Notice Walt enjoying his presents in the background.

Thanks, Aunt Sarah. This snake tastes good too.

Sam decorated her presents with her new stickers rather than opening it.

"How do they look, Walt?"

She can put them on all by herself.

"Cheese!"

Cars!

Boys know what to do with cars and trucks. It must be innate.

"Oooh, a plane."

Happy boy with his Name Train.

Coyboy boots! Mommy's jealous.

With all her new goodies.

Still playing with the first thing he opened.

Opening at Gran and Papa's.

Davis and Spence taking it all in.

A racing set!

This is one merry little guy.

Reading Walt "The Night Before Christmas."

They don't look 16 months apart, do they?

Holiday hug.

Still tasting everything.

Lots of cars and balls.

"Helping" daddy put the table together.

It fits her perfectly.
