Christmas in Alabama

We went to Alabama this past weekend to see my parents and celebrate Christmas with my brothers and their families. We had a great time. The girls loved playing with their cousins and seeing grandparents, aunts, and uncles.

Avery is getting stacking up her presents. She loved opening the presents!!! After she finished with hers she started trying to open other peoples.


Allie with a big present. It turned out to be a Hannah Montana keyboard!!



Avery got a princess set. She lined them all up and then stood in line with them. I have no idea why she took her shirt off. It was hot, but princesses sure don't dress like that!!!

CALLAWAY GARDENS

So last night we decided to go to Callaway Gardens. The Nobles, Ms. Charlotte, Ms. Sandra and Madison went with us, so Chris had the idea for us to take a school bus. We all loaded up and went. Here is a tip if you want to go to Callaway Gardens, buy your tickets the day before. If you try to buy them online the day you are going, you will not be able too. We had to buy them when we got down there. $$$$ Anyway we had a great time. The kids loved the lights and they loved the bus about as much. It was a little difficult to get the littlest ones to sit still when they are used to being in a car seat. While we were on the lights trail, Chris let the kids drive the bus. We had a good time.
