A wonderful time all around.

Christmas at home.

Carys' First Christmas
It was really special to watch Carys during the Christmas season, helping us cut down our first tree, putting up decorations, going to services, being with family, just all the hub-bub. Especially when there were presents/paper/bows, it seemed like she knew something was going on. And she LOVED being with people. Loved it so much it was hard to get her to bed a few nights because she wanted to stay up and be with everybody. My little social butterfly!
It was so nice to have a home this year to celebrate in. We've been in apartments before for Christmas, which has been great, but to get to set up a tree, play Christmas music (as loud as we wanted!), start special traditions together as a wee family, bring Carys downstairs to see her stocking and tree on Christmas morning.....it was wonderful.

Evans and Mayo Christmas pictures coming soon!

Happy 11 Month Birthday Carys!

What a big cowgirl...almost a year!!! Christmas updates and pictures coming soon.

Christmas Morning. Hat or no hat? Precious.

Merry Christmas!

CLAPPING

SOOOO EXCITING!!! Please ignore my lunacy....but I mean, she's clapping!

Drinking like a lady

This was at a really cute German-style restaurant at Goods in Kewanee. It's nice when your waitress has a baby about your age because they'll bring fun toys!
