Christmas in Smithfield

James' Christmas in Smithfield-- He doesn't have a stocking but his train is always filled with goodies.

These are all of my Dad's presents. We were supposed to "cut back" this year!! He wanted us to take a picture.

Kevin and LeeAnna gave James this cute stool along with MANY other gifts. He loves it and has played on it constantly since we've been home. Thanks!!!!

First Christmas as an engaged couple....many more to come!!!

Christmas Eve

On Christmas Eve we went to Gray's grandmother's house. We had a great time and stayed until it was time for James to go to sleep. James got to eat dinner in the living room. We had to take a picture because Mrs. Nancy has 7 grandchildren and none of them have ever gotten to eat in in the living room. I guess great-grandchildren can get away with more! He got a few toys and this adorable outfit. Can you tell what he was the most excited about??? I guess he's been shopping with me too long. After presents we went home and waited for Santa.

Oh How Time Flies!!!!

I know I've posted some of these pictures before but I had just had to again....James has grown so much in just one year!!! Last year he had no idea what was going on Christmas morning ( you can tell by the expression on his face). We are going to have so much fun this year.....more pictures to come in the next few days.

James and Addie

Last weekend we exchanged Christmas presents with Molly and Addie. Addie and James had such a good time together. She made homemade ornaments and gave a start to James.

After the presents were opened James said Thank you to Addie!!!!!

A Little Late....

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!
Kevin and LeeAnna are Engaged!!!!!

Pizza Pizza

James has finally decided that he likes pizza! I have tried so many times but this weekend he decided to give it a try. He wanted the whole piece!

Jennifer

Jennifer, one of my best friends from college came to visit this past weekend. We had a great time and I can't wait for us to get together again soon!!!! James really warmed up to Jennifer and by Sunday he was following her around and climbing in her lap.

Trip to Smithfield

James and I were in Smithfield from Sunday thru Wednesday. We had a great time and I had a chance to go Shopping all by myself for an entire day. I had some much needed "me" time and we also got to catch up with a few friends!

James played with measuring cups.

James and Addie got to see Santa... This isn't a good picture but at least it is a memory...Everyone was happy once they passed out candy canes.

James hung out in his chair with Granddaddy Mark.

I went to Tiff's baby shower in Selma. It was a lot of fun and great to visit with her and Carson. I can't wait to meet baby Lyra Grace!

Christmas Card Photos- Take 1

Last week I took James to his Great Grandmother's house "Gran Gran" to take some pictures for a possible Christmas card. She always has so many decorations so I figured we would have a lot of props. These are all cute but I'm still going to try another photo shoot before the cards go out.

One Year Ago Today...
