DECEMBER 2009

December was a great month...we were preparing for Christmas just like everyone else.  We were also getting ready for our new little cousin, Olivia to be born.  Brooke was having several showers and getting so excited. 

Also I got to be a part of BEST GIFT at Pinelake for the first time.  It was wonderful. Every other year, Pinelake does their Christmas program for around 15,000 folks.  It was AMAZING!  I had so much fun.

Here was our Christmas Card photo this year...

Wil Franklin is the CUTEST!  HA! We also had a lot of fun with decorations this year, because he was INTO all of them!  So we really had to pair down from our norm.  BUT Wil Franklin did get his own Christmas tree again with the ornaments that my friends made for him at one of my showers...

Then came Christmas Eve with the Collins Family...

We decided to spend the night at our home for the first time and have Christmas morning/Santa by ourselves since this was the first Christmas Wil Franklin would somewhat understand.  It was really sad for me and happy for me all at the same time.  Here's our Christmas Eve traditional photo before bedtime...

 

Matt and I did have fun settin up all Wil Franklin's loot, though...for Santa that is...=) (notice the Mt Dew)

We woke him up really early so we could get to Mimi and Dadaddy's house in Ecru.  He was still kinda asleep but I think he was liking what he was seeing...

After playing with our toys for a little bit, then we got in the car and headed North.  We were so excited to see Aunt WhitWhit and Uncle D and Mimi and DaDaddy...

Christmas PJs in front of the Tree...classic!

December was a blast and we had a GREAT time saying goodbye to 2009...
