Christmas 2009- Santa

The big night was finally here and we all couldn't wait! We read our Christmas books, set out our cookies, fed the reindeer, and wrote Santa a little note. Santa blessed us all in wonderful ways!

Reindeer Snack!


Santa's cookies (behind Cy) and our special note!

Check out the shaving kits! Probably taken 2 baths a day since we got them.

Go Titans!

Future Chris Johns*on!

A batman cave and many other boy treasures!

Christmas 2009- Lankford Family

Christmas Eve we headed over to Poppi's house for some yummy dinner and fun presents! We had a blast hanging out with some of our most favorite people and remembering how we have been blessed so much this year.

Not sure who was more excited about the motorized boom booms, Colby and Barron, or Uncle Gavin! So fun!

Sweet big boys! Brax is one of Cy's favorite friends and Brax is so sweet to let him always tag along!

Probably won't be able to take this pic next year so it will have to last for a while! Wonderful Sis-in-laws!

The Goof troop! Jade had not arrived yet when we preformed this stunt. We love our cousins.

One of the sweetest pics from this Christmas. These two are too cute.

Christmas 2009- Watson Family

This was a big Christmas for the Watson family. It was the first time I had not spent the night at my parents home on Christmas Eve. Also only 1 of my 5 living grandparents joined us for Christmas lunch. It was also the first time we gave sibling gifts before Christmas Day. Overall, I thought things went great and we established a few new traditions.
We headed over to my parents house Thursday morning for a yummy pancake breakfast and gifts from all the siblings. Then we stopped back by that evening to get presents from my Dad's parents. We had already done gifts from my Mom's mom the weekend before.
The next morning my parents and brothers came by to see our Santa treasures before we all went back to open gifts from my parents. Lots of back and forth, but no stress and we wore our pj's the entire time!

MoMo and Pep spoiled us all! Thank you!
Thursday nite with Grandad and Grandmom

Thursday morning breakfast in our PJ's

Papa Jr is the only grandparent that made Christmas lunch. Colby loves him some Papa Jr!

Not afraid to spread the Christmas love, here is Colby saying "thank you" to Nanny for his new movie.

Another great year, our first one in this house with so many fun memories.

Birthday Pics!

Happy Birthday again Mom! We love you and hope your day was great!

Oh and thanks Mom for the fun new hair cut!

Happy Birthday Mom!

Today we spent the day celebrating my mom's birthday! It was great! I went to the Titans' game with the fam and then had a fun dinner at Changs. I took a couple of really cute pics, but I will have to post those tomorrow. Mom, thanks for being so wonderful to ALL of us kiddos! You are an amazing woman, that loves and gives us way too much. We all love you, Grandmo or MoMo, which ever you prefer!!

A date night and a 40th b-day!

Saturday night Nate and I had a date night to our good buddy Nick's 40th bday! Bec had planned the surprise party months ago at a fun restaurant in Franklin. We had a great time visiting with old friends and meeting new ones. Oh and the cake was so yummy, how can you go wrong with chocolate chocolate chip.

Jingle all the way.....

This crew bundled up and did the Jingle Bell Run 5K on Saturday. This run benefits the Arthritis Foundation and we had a blast. We ran in honor of our MoMo and sweet friend Beth! Next year our crew needs to grow!!

Wordless Wednesday- Ponderosa Deer style

His lastest prize! Way to go Nate!
