Christmas Weekend!

Our fun festivities started at
the Christmas Eve service.
It has been fun for me to take
Allikaye's pictures in a lot of the
same places every Christmas service.
So here are a few past/present pictures!

Last year...

This year...

Last year singing with Popa...

This year singing with Popa...

2 years ago in front of the pretty tree...

This year in front of the pretty tree...

Then Christmas morning Allikaye
awoke to a big Barbie Playhouse in her playroom!
This will end up outside when it is warmer -
but she is loving it!

Big eyes...

This picture is still one of our favorite
pictures of Allikaye.
This is at her first Christmas.

So we asked her to try and reenact the picture...
Attempt one...

Attempt two...

Pretty Christmas girl
with some stick on earrings that were in her stocking!

Sweet smile for her new jewelry box from Grandma and Popa.

"Mom, is this a boook?"
hehe.

New pajamas that she HAD to wear right then...

Daddy so excited for his new golf driver...

Oh yeah...

Then after the fun Christmas morning...
we headed to the other side of the family...
Grammy and Pop Pop.

Cousin Anna was here from Texas too!

It was such great times with family.

We enjoyed every minute.
And so did our Allikaye.

I think she is quite worn out from
all the excitement.
Not that she is napping, that is long gone,
but she is playing a little more quietly...
once in awhile.

Here is evidence of a happy and satisfied girl...

Playing with her new Leapster.
Truly a gift for both her and her parents!

Next comes New Year's!
Then comes my baby turning 4!
Eeeee!
