Christmas in Paducah

When we arrived in Paducah, we headed to GP's house.  We had a lot of fun exploring.  We had a great dinner and had fun exchanging gifts.  We had a wonderful time and enjoyed spending time with family.  God has blessed us greatly and we are thankful.  Merry Christmas!

 
 
 

Si looks fairly comfortable.  Maybe he will play the piano someday.
 
 

Beau's Baptism was beautiful.  Carol, Katherine, and Kirk were the Godparents.  I was trying to photograph the event, which was maybe not the best idea.  Si and Anna got a little rambunctious during the ceremony.  Kirk said later that he kept wondering when I was going to take them out.  That said, it was a very nice baptism.

 
 
 
 

Ok, maybe I shouldn't have included this one.  I just couldn't resist.  I guess it was just too inviting.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 


And the party continues.  We had a great time opening gifts and witnessing Santa's deliveries.  Merry Christmas!

Almost Christmas

We enjoyed a quiet family Christmas before our trek to Paducah.  I am hoping one day we will be able to celebrate with family and return to our home.  It is hard to drive 6 to 9 hours to see family.  Not that it is not well worth it, I just would love to see the kids at our house enjoying Christmas and opening presents from Santa on Christmas morning.  For now, we will keep driving, but maybe someday we will live closer.

 Heaven pouring out from above or so it seems....

Anna's First Christmas Party!


Anna was invited to Cameron's 2nd Annual Christmas PJ party.  She had so much fun!  A lot of new toys to play with and great food!  She got to design her own Christmas cookie and play pin the nose on Rudolph.

Meredith and Steve's Visit





Uncle Steve and soon to be Aunt Meredith came for a visit.  I took them hiking at Moss Rock.  It was nice the small waterfall was flowing, given it had just rained.  We were glad to spend time with them and enjoyed a great weekend!
