So far we have enjoyed 2 Christmases, each with their own highlights. Our first Christmas was with the Browns and we had so much fun enjoying delicious food, great gifts, and the best part which was torturing Pip with Christmas bows. Doesn't Pip just look so happy in this picture? Watch the video, it's even better.
Matt and Billy sporting their matching head lamps, aren't they just so cute?
Every year at Thanksgiving and Christmas I love to bake goodies for my neighbors. This year I made Harvest loaves at Thanksgiving and then yesterday I made these yummy truffles that we handed out to everyone. Matt hates going and passing these things out but I love it because it's such a fun way to show people love during the hectic holidays.
Next we spent Saturday evening having Christmas at my mom's house with my sister's, their husbands, and my cutie pie nephew Parker. Parker loved all of his gifts but his favorite part was sticking everything in his mouth. I guess it's okay when you are 5 months old but it might be a little weird if he does this every Christmas. :) Actually I'm not sure who enjoyed his gifts more, him or my mom, she was freaking out at all the toys and wanted to play with all of them. She's so weird, but definitely a fun grandma!
This hat that my mom got Parker was so cute!
Matt got lots of fun stuff for running, like energy drinks, endurance candy and an awesome shirt to run in that repels the sweat off his body.

  1. Yay for multiple christmas celebrations with the ones we love! That video with Pip was so funny. I can understand why Heather eventually took the bow off him to end the misery - I had the same urge the entire time I watched that video!
