We had 4 different family celebrations. The first started off the few days right before Christmas at Papa Richard & Mimi's. We drove down Friday night & woke up Saturday morning to a fresh blueberry pancake breakfast made by Papa Richard & little munchkins eager to open presents.
MiMi's house is always decorated so beautiful. She had a lovely holiday tea set ready for the kids to have a tea party with Auntie Cecie & all of the stockings were hung "with care".
One of my favorite things about going to my parents during the holidays is, that I get my very own stocking filled with goodies just for ME. It's like being a little kid again & I secretly (well not so secret anymore) enjoy it every year.
Reagan had been asking for a Little Mermaid costume & fell in love with one that her friend Hannah's mommy had made at Halloween. Auntie Cecie got creative & got Reago a Ariel dress up skirt & a training bra. Okay okay.... so your thinking, "a training bra!?" Don't worry. Later in the day, Auntie Cecie & Reagan took a trip over to Hobby Lobby to get "shell boobies" & sparkles. They came home & got to work decorating. The result was too cute!
We had a non-traditional Christmas meal & it was spectacular. Papa Richard & MiMi order an array of 3 different delicious sandwiches, corn chowder, a goat cheese & fig salad, & a scrumptious assortment of tasty treats for dessert.
My Christmas present from my parents was a gorgeous Coach purse & some money which I used to get a Coach wallet. I LOVE them!
In the afternoon, Papa Richard took Reago for a movie date to see Monster's Inc.
Earlier in the day, I picked up a high back booster seat. She was super happy to move into a bigger girl car seat.
Oh, & this is just me sporting the new beanie I got in my stocking :) Reagan & I have matching ones & the boys got matching grey ones. They will be great for our snow trip in a couple of weeks
Our weekend was so lovely & relaxing.
Christmas Eve, Christmas Morning, & Christmas Day all coming soon. Stay tuned...
