It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year

We had an amazing Christmas weekend. We are so blessed to have such a loving family on both sides. Christmas is always a fun time, but this year it was even more special through Kyri's eyes! She loved everything about Christmas and would make her voice high and squeaky every time we talked about anything that had to do with the holiday. Here are some of her cute quotes from this weekend...

"These are beautiful decorations!"

"Look at the wonderful holiday lights!"

"Have to be nice or Santa won't come."

"It's Christmas Eve!" (She said this every day the whole week before.)

Singing, "Say hello, to friends you know" in the car all the time.

Singing, "Jolly Jolly Christmas" through the halls at Grandma B's house.

"Make a wish!" Every time she saw a candle.

"These are all my friends...everybody's here altogether!" (When the families got together.)

"Aww, thanks, how fweet (sweet)!" With her head tilted to the side.

"I'm a lucky girl!"

And she is a very lucky, blessed girl. Thank you so much to everyone for loving our little girl so much and making her Christmas so "wonderful!"

Here are a ton of pictures to recap our festive weekend...

Christmas Day

As soon as Aubry and Kyri walked into Grandma Nancy and Grandpa Mike's house, they ran to these unwrapped presents and started playing.

Sporting matching Minnie backpacks.

This new lion moved and made noise. Kyri went around telling everyone that it wasn't real, but we're pretty sure she thought it was. She was talking to it and feeding it all night.

Taking a time out from presents to read what Christmas is really about.

Training her new puppy.

Cousins being silly.

Kyri and Kailey playing.

Kyri trying on Aunt Sherry's glasses.

Pop and Kyri telling each other stories.

Traffic jam in the living room!

Matching new cars.

Sporting her new accessories.

Drawing on her new easel.

The girls both got dancing Mickeys, and they cracked them up!

The Day After Christmas

We went over to Grandma B's and Grandpa Larry's for some more fun!

Kyri trying out her new princess sleeping bag and pillow.

She got a new suitcase, too. All ready for sleepovers!

We took tons of videos, too. I'll post those later. Check back soon!
