Christmas Day 2011

Christmas was a full blessing of a day.

Busy and running around all day left me with just a handful of pictures from the day

Lunch at GG's

Mae woke up to a Panda in her tree :)The Gaston CrewWhat a face!

Christmas Eve time

We had a wonderful morning at Nana's and Papa's for a quite morning

What a face!

enjoying some playtime

for some reason the day past me by and I have not a single pic from the day! From cooking to working at church, the day just blurred away!! Oh well we always have the memories! And a very sweet one was one of the girls friends getting baptized during worship service that night. So awesome!

Be blessed!
