Guess Who Came to Town?

Lily Grace discovered Santa had come before the sun did.  She has been all giggles.  She's enjoying everything Santa left for her as well as thoughtful gifts from family. (and so is Darby)

She also reminded us that today is Jesus' birthday!  We sang Happy Birthday to him at breakfast and pause to remember how blessed we are.   Thanks be to God!  

Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Christmas Eve

This morning, like each Christmas Eve, we enjoyed breakfast at the Peabody.  There is something so magical about the Peabody during the holidays and much of that has to do with the decorations.  Lily Grace loved the big gingerbread house this year, as well as the train constructed of gingerbread and other yummy treats.  However, according to Lily Grace, nothing tops The Ducks!

This evening, Magic Reindeer food has been spread on the lawn and cookies have been left for Santa.  Lily Grace is all tucked in and another day of special memories has been made.

Holiday Cuteness

What makes for a wonderful cold afternoon after a long nap?  Having friends to share it with, that's what.  Lily Grace welcomed good friend Kaitlyn over for milk, cookies, dress up fun and gift exchanging.  The girls had a great time!  They are too cute!
