Christmas reflections...

We had a wonderful Christmas with our baby girl! We were blessed to spend the holiday with our families and Lily got to meet many of her relatives for the first time. We spent Christmas Eve with the Raley bunch and Christmas Day Joe worked at the Mission and my Mom came to spend the day with me and Lily. Can you believe I didn't take any pictures on those days?! I came down with a bad cold and I think it affected my brain :-) Anyway, the day after Christmas we went to visit my family in Olive Branch, MS. It was Lily's first road trip and she did AWESOME....I was so thankful! Here are some photos from our visit -

Glad you guys got to spend time with your family for Christmas! Good to see the updated pictures of Lily. She is so precious! CAN'T WAIT to see her in person! Maybe 6 more months? Come on summertime! :)

Too cute. Do you remember me from the Christmas dinner? How did you upload the music? You Are My Sunshine is the song I always sing to my kids. If you don't mind, I would like to add you to my follow list. I read Daisy's as well. We have one if you are interested http://grinerfamily.blogspot.com/
