Christmas Weekend Recap

We have spent a long weekend celebrating Christmas.
Let me just warn...these are way too many pictures on here. Just so you know. But I just could not resist with all of the fun times we had!
Friday Night - Harbison Family Christmas
We celebrated at Nana and Papaw's house with Matt's mom side of the family.
Ellie had a great time playing with her cousins Clay and Les!
She got lots of fun toys too that she loved!


Saturday and Saturday Night - Carpenter Family Christmas
We headed over to Starkville on Saturday morning to spend Christmas Eve with my Mom's side of the family...a total of about thirty people. We love, love, love going here. It is a special time and I hope that Ellie will know how special these times are.
We spent the afternoon playing outside with cousins.






Aunt Melissa read the Christmas story like she always does. Ellie helped out.
Granny cooked a wonderful meal
then we opened presents!
Ellie got a grocery cart and she was not very happy when her Daddy has to put it together.

We had a great time Christmas morning seeing what Santa brought us!

Ellie's Santa!
Santa made the kitchen all by himself...well Ms Santa helped too!
I thought it turned out SO, SO cute!
I hope Ellie will love to play with it for many, many years.






Sunday Night - Matt's Family Christmas
We headed home from Starkville around lunch then went over to see Papaw Henry then we went to have Christmas with Matt's parents.
We finally took a family picture in front of the Christmas tree!


Ellie had a great time opening presents there and playing with her Aunt Em, Uncle Seth, Pop-Pop and Mamaw!
She loved openning gift, ecspecially her Rock and Roll Elmo. I tried to talk her Mamaw into letting it stay at their house but she said it needed to come home with us. Aren't we lucky :)
Monday Night - Jones Family Christmas
We went over to Matt's Aunt and Uncle's house to celebrate Christmas with Matt's Dad's side of the family. Ellie really loved playing there and had a great time riding their rocking horse!
Ellie loved it so much! Santa built have to build her one next year :)

Ellie and Riley Grace had a great time playing!
Even though we put away all our Christmas stuff yesterday, we still have one more Christmas to celebrate with my Dad.
