Drew's First Christmas

Yes, I am just now posting our Christmas pics. My apologies, but i have come to grips with the fact that i may never be "caught up" on things in my life again. And, i'm ok with it, at least in the blogging world. (clearly) Thanks to great-grandma Lou for outfitting Drew with all the adorable "First Christmas" gear. It doesn't get much cuter.




We really do have friends, and here they are. After much coaxing & face making from Trent, i think Drew's almost smiling in this one.

Now, let the games begin...

We got to spend Christmas with Grambee Beth. She drove up from Arlington with a load of gifts for all of us. Mostly for Drew.

Presents are really only good for one thing...munching on.

And, the gift wrap's good for snacking, too.Yummy...


Grambee hooked us up with some new clothes, cool books & fun toys. Thank you! And, Drew's Mamaw & Papaw (or is it Nana & Papa??) in Alabama sent us some much needed gift certificates. Drew's already spent hers & says they were also good for chewing on.

Poor Angel must have been lamenting over not being the baby in the family anymore. She's still so cute, though. And, don't worry, she & Coy got chewy bones for Christmas.

Toph's Dad, Mr. Bill, & his wife, Sandra, came up a few days after Christmas to celebrate together. Drew once again enjoyed both the paper & the toys! While they were here, we all went to church to share in the Lord's Supper. Topher (wearing a suit!) got to lead us, and it was just our family praying & celebrating in the Lord together. I can't really describe how special it was.

We got a surprise in the mail, too. Our sweet Gossett friends sent us (me, and i'm not sharing) a super-snuggly blanket & a cool phone for Drew...

hmm...what's this?the chew test...and...i love it!

well, i guess we'll be back in June to post our Valentine's Day pics.
