Merry Christmas!

Olivia got a Barbie Jeep this year! Too bad we live in a place with a "White Christmas!" It snowed on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, so we had to shovel our deck for her to take a little ride. When she saw the Jeep, she got in like she knew exactly what to do. She slammed on the gas and ran into the table in her playroom. No one could even do anything about it because we were all laughing so hard! She got the hang of it a little better once we moved outside. As you can see from our red faces, it was FREEZING...but she was not happy about having to come back inside! At least we will have all spring and summer to learn how to drive! She also got a basketball hoop to play with her Daddy. She loves playing with him at the gym and now they have one at home! Nothing is better than having kids at Christmas!

Opening presents

K.C. is so cute on Christmas...he is like a little kid in a candy store! The difference is he is so hard to buy for. This year, I got his college jersey and framed it with his profile and cool pics from college. I think it was a hit! He likes anything about him:) It may appear he doesn't like his Lacoste sweater, but this is the face he and his friends at work make when they think eachother look sharpe...I know, total metrosexual, but it has many perks!! We had such a great Christmas!

Family time at Christmas

We had everyone at our house for Christmas this year. It was so much fun! We somehow got talked into opening Christmas presents among the adults late Christmas Eve...K.C. pleaded his case and we eventually gave in:) We saved some for in the morning but, Christmas Day was ALL ABOUT OLIVIA! She loved opening presents and helping everyone open their presents. She would say, "ooh..I got pretty shoes. I love them! What did you get? Do you like it? I wanna open ANOTHER present!" Who doesn't!! We are really trying to get her to use the big girl potty. Her new potty books are her favorite, so hopefully it pays off!

Uncle Jared and Aunt Nicole are HOME!

K.C.'s brother, Jared and his wife, Nicole came in town for Christmas. He could only stay a couple of days because he is in the middle of his college basketball season, but he finally got to meet Gabi! We loved having them home! We can't wait for them to move back!!

Gabi-O

Our little Gabi is growing up so fast! She smiles and laughs and definitely knows my voice...She is even trying to sit up..but as you can see, she is a little too chubby to do that yet! We love snuggling together:)

Dress Up!

Olivia got a dress up outfit from my Mom. She hasn't quite gotten into it yet, but her favorite color is pink and she loves to look pretty!

Daddy's Girl!

Since K.C. has been home, Olivia won't let him leave the room! She loves her Daddy!!

Cute little Gabi in her Christmas onsie!

We opened Christmas gifts with my parents before we left SC. We had so much stuff going home! Olivia loves the piano she got. She knows all the songs and where they are. Her musical talent definitely came from K.C.'s side of the family! Here she is dancing and singing to the songs.

Hangin' in SC!

We are having so much fun in SC with my family. Our Thanksgiving was great with good ole' southern favorites:) You know we can fry anything and the turkeys were great...Thanks, Kevin!

Olivia just loves playing with all her cousins! K.C. and I got lots of Christmas gift ideas hanging out at my sister Kelli's house...Olivia was trying to "borrow" all of her cousin Emily's toys. She is 3, so you can imagine how that played out!

Olivia got to see Santa in the Christmas parade at my Mom's house...yeah, Santa in SC is sweating because this definitely ain't the North Pole...its 70 degrees! We are soaking it up because K.C. called to inform me he was shoveling 6 inches of snow off our driveway! Looks like maybe we will have a White Christmas again!

Hope you all enjoyed Thankgiving!! We have lots to be Thankful for!!

Hangin' in SC!
