Christmas Pics

I hope everyone had a nice Christmas.  We sure did.  We had two really nice services on Christmas Eve and one on Christmas morning.  Later that day we drove down to Indiana and had Christmas celebrations with our families.  Thankfully, the weather cooperated and didn't cause us any trouble while driving.



Lena's Christmas Day dress.  She was pretty happy that morning.


That's my leg she's grabbing on to.  Whenever I try to take her picture, she comes at me because she wants me to hold her.


Christmas evening at Aunt Amy's apartment with Grammy Tammy and Roger, and Great-Grandparents Zink.  Aunt Amy got her a nice selection of pretty bows and hair clips.


Trying out some new hairstyles.  She's definitely getting enough hair to work with!


Dancing with Aunt Amy to some Christmas music.   Amy made us a lovely lasagna dinner.


A new coat and hat from Grammy Tammy.


Opening presents with Aunt Amy.  Her favorite part of opening presents wasn't the toy inside, it was eating the paper she just ripped off the package.


The little high chair seat Aunt Hilary got her for when she visits.  It is really nice and keeps her entertained.  Thanks, Aunt Hil!


Playing with Grandma Sheryl on Friday.


Time for more presents.  She got some fun bath toys from Grandma Sheryl and Grandpa Lee.


Aunt Hilary and Uncle Scott got her a pretty duffel bag with her name embroidered on it.  I didn't get a pic of it, but after she opened it, she looked at it and pointed to her name on it!  It was so cute!


Helping Mama open the great big present for her and Daddy.  It was a new garage door opener from Grandpa Lee and Grandma Sheryl.  Yay!


I think this was actually my gift, but I appreciated the help with pulling the bows off!


Uncle Scott got black vodka for Christmas!


Again, she loved eating the paper as soon as she pulled some off.


She really liked this book that she got.  She should have opened it last because we had trouble getting her interested in her other presents because she wouldn't put it down.  It does have lots of shiny colors on it.  Pretty!


Surprise!!


Lena with Grandpa Lee and Grandma Sheryl.  She's really into waving right now.


Lena with Daddy at Grandpa Brian's.


Lena had fun playing with Aunt Amy's friend, Heather.


Silly Grandpa Brian.  He is re-creating the look he chose for his new driver's license picture.


Naptime at Grandpa Brian's house.  So tired.  That is a blanket I made for her for Christmas. It says "sweet pea" all over it.


Lena with Grandpa Brian and Great-Grandma Marian.  Waving again, of course!


Thanks so much to all of our family for a wonderful Christmas.  Lena's first Christmas was really nice.  

Happy New Year, everyone!!
