We start with Thanksgiving at our house with the Drake family... we really missed having Milbry and Zach and their families!!
Drake family Thanksgiving Feast... Carlie burned her finger on the curling iron and said that she was having a terrible day. Poor girl it was pretty sad.
Sarah Jane didn't enjoy a lot of the great food but she for sure didn't miss out on the olives... yum!
Sarah Jane wanted her turn at the big table and was playing more than eating... a common theme with her.
Another picture with Gus... (Carlie had a mug of cold water to keep her finger in). We had a great time with the Drakes and love having the family at our home often! Thanksgiving at the Waltman's
We had a good time but as always it is pretty crazy! This is the adult/teenager table... so many people so little space!
This is where the little kids sat... including Carlie! In this picture I think she was under the table.
The littlest kids were at the bar. Sarah Jane happens to be ON the bar!*********************************************************************************
The day after Thanksgiving the guys (Gus, His Dad, and Sam) did a great job of finding a perfect tree!

Christmas Eve
Christmas Eve at my parents house during the Grandkid drawn name opening.
Grady just stared at Santa in awe!
I think it's safe to say that Sarah Jane doesn't care for Jolly Ol' Saint Nick at this point in her life!
Carlie was so excited and got in line to sit with Santa several times! We could hardly get her to stop hopping to go sit with him.
The kids and all of their varying emotions as they sit with Santa on Christmas Eve.
Grady, Carlie, Kara, Sarah Jane, Emily, Kenedy, and Cami all singing Ruldolf the Red nosed Reindeer.
Sarah Jane got a baby doll!
Carlie got Snow White at our Waltman draw name gift exchange from her cousin Ethan! She was so excited!
Grady is such a cute boy... in my opinion. I just love him, he is so happy all of the time, he is such a good baby and is learning to roll over!
Carlie is so into the Santa thing! She loves Christmas... she insisted that we set out treats and milk for Santa, and some friends of ours gave us Reindeer food that we had to set out too! There are also some pictures that she made for Santa! She is a riot, she gets so excited!This post is to be continued... (our camera is being dumb)
