Hanging Out In Hickory

We enjoyed some good time in Hickory with my parents. The kids and I went down last Saturday and stayed through Christmas Eve day. Jon joined us on the 23rd. It was good to relax, visit with Mom and Dad and see my friends!

Dad, Ava, Mom and Emet
Ava enjoyed playing with the remote control Corvette Dad got from someone at work!

Eli and Emet
We went to Kellie's for dinner and the kids exchanged gifts.

Eli and Ava...so sweet!

Leigh Ann, Kellie and I usually get together with our kids at the same time, but Leigh Ann couldn't make dinner that Monday night. She and Davis made a special trip down on Tuesday and had lunch with us at Mom and Dad's house!

Me and the kids with Catie

Ava loves Christmas. She is so into the reason we celebrate...the birth of Jesus and Christmas being his birthday. It was no surprise that she enjoyed the manger scene. Notice how she had to line them up...a little obsessive!

Pops gave Emet his bedtime bottle.

Ava enjoyed snuggling with Granna!
