Party Central

Oh how I love Christmas...but I also LOVE when it is said and done! It has been a busy few weeks that have come and gone so quickly, it almost makes your head spin.
I love this time of year as it is always a time for family and friends to get together and enjoy each others company. I have wonderful families and a fabulous group of friends, all who mean the world to me. We all get caught up in the chaos of the season, but I want to make sure these special people really know how much they mean to me and our family.

The picture below if the Grimsley family-minus a few. My mom's side of the family has always been pretty close. I enjoy getting to see my cousins, aunts, uncles and grandparents. It is fun to catch up on the last year. It is really fun to see the family growing-we added a few this year between a marriage and babies! Congrats to them!

Christmas Eve has somewhat turned into the tradition night for the Jones' family Christmas party. We always have a special visitor, which makes it fun for the kids.
As you can see below, Zander didn't think he was so special!

Maizy loves Santa and is so into the whole Christmas thing this year. It has made it fun for us.

Zoey isn't so sure of him quite yet. She just wanted the gift. She wouldn't talk to him and got off his lap as soon as she got her present.

This was Zander on Chrismas morning. He was having so much fun opening presents and playing with the toys.

Not the greatest picture of Maizy, but this is the coveted Ariel doll that goes in the bathtub that she wanted.

Zoey just wanted to open everyones presents and try out ALL the toys. This is her trying out Maizy's scooter.

It also seems to be a tradition lately that we have the Wilde family Christmas party on Christmas Day. Maizy and Zoey are not so patiently waiting to open their presents with their cousins.

My parents got all the kids bean bags. The girls are trying theirs out below.

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas.
