A Christmas To Remember

The presents have been opened, our tummies have been stuffed, our visitor Glovey has gone back to the North Pole with Santa, and the snow has melted.  Looking back on the Christmas season, I think it was a good one for sure.  Hoyt was so excited Christmas morning when he came running into the living room saying Santa came, Santa came.  There was a stocking overflowing with treats & sugar, there was a walking talking bigfoot, there were games and cars and movies and on and on and on.  The faces in our house were bright with wonder!  As Hoyt marveled in all of the new toys and adventures that awaited him, I cooked a Christmas breakfast that was fit for a king, while poor ole Danel had the pleasure of putting hot wheels tracks together, loosening and tightening screws, and helping Hoyt get things out of packages that were harder to get into than Fort Knox.  It was a day of memories, fun,  family!








A white Christmas in Alabama...that doesn't happen!  It was so exciting and the perfect way to end our eventful Christmas season.  Danel & Hoyt laughed and played in the snow, built a snowman, chased Chewy (who was completely freaking out, I might add); all while I snapped pictures of the moments while enjoying a blanket in a rocking chair on the front porch with a BIG mug of hot chocolate!  As I said before, perfect ending.
