The Wonders of HIS Love

Christmas 2012 was wonderful. We spent five glorious days in Conway followed by a long weekend at home doing some seriously fun family stuff. And by seriously fun, I mean hanging around at the house, running a few errands, and enjoying each other's company. That's serious fun to me. Really. I want to do a "Best of 2012" post today, but it will probably wait until tomorrow. I'm not too good at doing two posts in a day.

Instead of giving lots of details, I'm just posting more than the average number of photos in this post. I don't have a ton of time here...Graham is in the jumperoo, and Reese is upstairs playing. This may not last long.

Our Christmas card. I apologize if you didn't get one. I got them in LATE, and if I didn't have your address handy, your card is still sitting in the stack with no address. It may get done, or you can send me you address, and it will be done pronto.

Christmas in Conway. 

Walker Christmas.

Gran reading a new book to her girls.

Uncle Wes Sandwich.

Mema and a few of her girls cuddling on the couch.

Reese ADORED being the "baby" to all of her big cousins. And I loved it, too. So sweet to watch them start playing together.

Watching ELF in the den.

Baby Reese with Molly. Molly is pretty much a superhero to Reese.

The real baby loving all of the beautiful chaos.

Mema (along with everyone else) was amazed by Ty's skills on the iPad.

What Santa and Buddy the Elf? Clifford is way cooler.

Christmas in Conway.

Frost Christmas.

"Adopted" brother Lovemore and Graham.

High school besties and their babies. Doesn't get much better.

Barrett, Wes, and their girls.

Moppy and her favorite grandkids.

Poppy and the Christmas Tree Train. Reese was enamored.

Not sure what this was, but I think it's cute.

Graham and Uncle Allen. 

We made a visit to meet Savannah Gaines on Christmas Eve.

Settlers of catan has replaced Trivial Pursuit.

Clark! Doctor Smith came for a visit, too!

Some sweet, sweet moments on Christmas Eve.

Ready for the candlelight Christmas Eve service.

Just a few of the gifts...

A Disney Viewfinder for Reese.

Altuzarra glasses for the boys. Yeah, we know him.

Paintings from San Francisco.

A guitar.

The moon.

Hey, cuties.

We LOVED our first holiday in the new house. 

Four generations.

Mom said she wouldn't have much of the new house decorated. She made Boiled Custard. If you know what that entails, you know she majorly underestimated what she would get done before we arrived.

"The Kids"

11:30pm on Christmas night. 

Morning of the 26th. Reese staring at the 10 inches of snow.

Let's go play!

We weren't prepared for this weather, so zip loc bags over Toms it was!

We made it home that evening, and Graham was happy to be back on his play mat.

And two nights later, the Paci Fairy visited. This deserves its own post, but it probably won't happen. Basically, this Momma is just extremely proud and impressed. She hardly missed a beat and is sleeping great.

My boys. Love them.
