Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

A little late for the post but better late than never! Christmas this year was so awesome with Luke. He was totally into it! He loved to talk about "San, San" and kind of understood what was going on. We had a very busy Christmas and traveled the State as we do every year. We woke up Christmas Eve morning at home and Trey and I unwrapped gifts (our tradition since we've gotten married). Then it was time to get on the road and head to Greenville to spend time with my side of the family! First, we met with my dad's immediate side of the family. We had so much fun spending time with each other and Luke was really into the gifts. He was a bit on the cranky side from lack of a good nap and a regular nap time but that was nothing a little Diet Dr. Pepper couldn't fix!

From there we went to my Great Aunt and Uncle's house to spend time with my extended family. We don't get to see them very much so it was great to hang out with everyone. Luke was a ham! He was in a much better mood and loved playing with my cousin's son Stone and playing on my Aunt Ruth's piano. He was "singing" Jingle Bells and Frosty.

After a busy night we headed back to mom and dad's to exchange gifts with them and Erik and Amanda. It's Erik and Amanda's first Christmas as a married couple! Then it was time for Santa to arrive. Last year Luke had no clue what was going on so Santa didn't go overboard. But, this year, Santa had so much fun getting gifts for Luke!

Here's the loot! (Presents wrapped are from Nana, G-Diddy and Erik and Amanda - it took a while to open everything!)



Luke woke up Christmas morning and was so excited. I asked him who came to visit while he was asleep and he said "San, San" It was so cute!

Here he is playing with his new Spiderman car!

We ate lunch with my parents and then headed to Union to spend time with Trey's side of the family. Gran and Papa Mok went overboard with all of the presents! Here is Gran helping Luke so I could take pictures! Luke is reading his book that Aunt Ashley and Uncle Brett had made for him! It's an Elmo book with all of our names and our address in it! It is so cute!


We had a great time in Union spending time with the Anthony's! We left the day after Christmas to head back to Batesburg-Leesville. We had to switch cars with Will so we could get everything home!

This is what happens when you have the first grandchild on both sides, the first neice/nephew on both sides and the first baby in 10 years with my extended family!

The sad part is, this isn't all of the loot! My parents had to make a special trip to Batesburg the day after Christmas to bring the "big" items that wouldn't fit in Will's Expedition!

Now...what to do with all of this stuff?????

Happy New Year!!!!!
