Christmas Parties!

We celebrated Christmas with both sides of Pat’s family over the weekend.  Unfortunately, I didn’t get very many pictures.  There were a couple of reasons for this.  1)  My kiddo would not sit still long enough for me to take her picture and 2) I wasn’t feeling well at all that day and didn’t have the patience to run around after her to try and take her picture.  Regardless, I did get a few pics and we had a wonderful time celebrating Christmas.  Evie got to hang out with Stella at Marker Christmas and boy did she have fun.  Stella was so good with Evie, let Evie follow her around and even read her a book.  Evie loved it!  She also enjoyed meeting Baby Lucas and playing with all of his toys.  She also loved all of the delicious Christmas cookies that we had there…YUM!  We had such a nice time seeing everyone and catching up, and although Evie was shy at first, she warmed up after a while.  She even hugged everyone and told them ‘thank you’ for her gifts.  After a brief trip home for Evie’s nap, we headed over to Grandma Rita’s house for another party.  Evie had a ball playing with all of the toys and hanging out with Andrew and Jonathan.  She had fun exploring her grandma’s house (even though it made me a nervous wreck that she was going to break something).  And she loved playing with Mickey the dog.  She loved him so much that she decided to try and give him an entire bag of saltines in his food dish…geez!

This year Evie’s Uncle Dan and Aunt Nicole were in town for the Christmas parties.  It had been over a year since we’d seen them and I think they were impressed at how much Evie had grown.  They brought Evie a present all the way from Prague!

We had so much fun celebrating Christmas with Pat’s family this year!
