A Few Of My Favorite Things

Well, Christmas has past and a new year has begun (Yay 2010) and I am STILL playing catch up. I just can't seem to find the time to make myself sit down at the computer. It's just so much easier keeping up with things on my iPod and it is not an easy task to try and type a post on my iPod. All the decorations are down all the new toys have found a home and I have regained some normalcy in our house. (Note to self: It is not as much fun taking down Christmas decorations as it is to put them up..think twice before putting up so many trees!)

Christmas was wonderful...magical even. Madie is at the age where you really can experience the holidays through her eyes. Her quote for Christmas morning was, "Mommy, Daddy all my dreams have come true!" Priceless and good for the soul.

This years holiday activities was much like all the others. A trip to Muscle Shoals, home for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day and then a trip to Jacksonville. We were so lucky to see just about everyone in our family and those we didn't get to see we hope to see them soon.


Here are a few of my favorite candid shots from the holidays.

Madie bouncing on her bouncy ball that Santa brought.

Hubby putting together the Barbie Trike we gave her for Christmas. She is still riding it in the house and has mastered the art of taking turns on two wheels.

Madie posing net to her new toy kitchen. She's a good cooker. Makes the best pumpkin pie I have ever eaten. (secret ingredients are carrots and cabbage...her words not mine)

Bring on 2010! We are ready for the best year ever!!!
