Christmas 2014

We had such a wonderful Christmas this year! I feel like last Christmas was such a blur because Corban was still so small and NOT sleeping! ha! I really enjoyed every moment this year!

Christmas Eve we enjoyed a service at our church and then had some of our family and our neighbors over for dinner. AK, Corban and daddy made cookies for Santa and Mimi worked on getting stuff ready for Christmas breakfast. Anna Kate was so excited she did not fall asleep until after 10:00!!








Christmas morning was so much fun! Anna Kate was so reserve as she came down the stairs and stood quietly and just stared at everything. I know her mind was running a mile a minute! We enjoyed seeing what Santa brought and eating a yummy breakfast. Then, we opened presents Mimi, Papa and Uncle Jay had brought....





















 We rested and then headed to Nanny's and Grandma's houses for more eating and present opening! We were able to head to Swansboro and Beaufort the weekend after Christmas to see more family and friends :)













New Year's Eve we were able to have our friends over for an oyster roast and gift exchange. I hate I didn't get more pictures!




Aunt Cinni and Aaron (bobcat) came by and brought presents too!

Getting Ready for Christmas!

We have been up to some really exciting things recently! This may be a really long post to include all that we have been doing...

Lots of bday parties for friends! Anna Kate got to go to a cowboy themed party at a stable. She absolutely loved the horses!







Corban enjoyed a cupcake at Mason's bday party!!

At Thanksgiving the kids made cookies together and enjoyed lunch on the back porch :)




I took both kids to Painted Peacock (by myself) to paint some Christmas projects. It wasn't such a good idea to go by myself.....but we came out with some pretty cute stuff...






We decorated our Christmas tree the weekend after Thanksgiving...




We went to a church event and made a family advent calendar.....

Anna Kate also got picked to dress up as Olaf




We went to the Greenville Christmas  parade with cousins :)

We went to see Santa. AK took her Christmas list and read the whole thing to Santa ;) Corban was not a fan!



Anna Kate and Bryant have become quite the bakers this season....




We attempted a Christmas card picture....



Anna Kate is at the most fun age! She is so stinkin' excited about Christmas this year!

Last weekend we went to Disney on Ice with our buddy Leighton. The girls loved it!!


(look at Leighton's crown ;)






Anna Kate had her program at preschool. She had a little part this year and rocked it!!










After school yesterday, some of Anna Kate's buddies came over and had dinner and decorated gingerbread houses. The girls had such a good time playing and decorating and I really enjoyed visiting with their sweet mamas. 



My next post will probably be after Christmas day!! We are so excited!!
