The Christmas Season

We got a few more pictures at church last week in the same spot as before. 




Love, love, love this picture of Rachel!  


The kids last week of school before Christmas was last week.  Since we have four teachers to buy for right now, we don't go big.  But I saw this and thought it was super cute.  It's wrapping paper, tape and the tag reads:

Since November, you've been shopping, barely sleeping, hardly stopping.
Now it's late, you're in a scrape, out of paper or out of tape.
Hope this wrap helps save the day!
Have a Happy Holiday!

Everyone loved them.


We left Saturday morning and drove to Charlotte for the weekend to spend some time with my side of the family.  We spent Saturday with mom & Jim and Jeremy and Cathy's family.  Rachel and Jackson love getting to play with their cousins!


Separating presents!


Loving on Ted...



Both got new umbrellas and love them!



Julia, Anna Grace and Rachel.


All of us.


Jackson loves to play with Jeremy...he was being so silly.


And this little guy isn't so little anymore!!  Samuel, my oldest nephew, turns 13 this week... can't believe that!  Happy birthday, Sam!  


Sunday, we went over to the Davidson side and spent time with everyone there.


Rachel and Tori were sharing cheers with each other. 




Playing hide-n-seek!




Group picture #2.


And with my grandparents... four generations here.


And before we headed out, we went by and saw my Grandma Perkins.  It was so good to see her as well!


Yesterday was a long day since we drove home.  Everyone was tired - the kids got a short nap and then we went out to Petit Creek Farms to look at Christmas lights.  I had a Groupon for the hayride but it was supposed to rain.  We got there and saw it was covered, so we attempted it anyways.  It was fun.  They saw goats, camels, zebras and an emu along the way.  I had hoped to get a picture of us in front of the lights but it started raining harder and I forgot.  


The white baby goat was so cute!



The camels came right up to us to be fed!


Jackson got a little freaked out by them being so close...



And behind the kids here are two reindeer laying down... Comet and Cupid.  

 
 Tomorrow is Christmas Eve.  We're going to our first Christmas Eve service as a family.  Merry Christmas!
