Santa's Little Helpers!

Our Merry Little Christmas started right her in Knightdale...a wee bit early...but maybe Santa just really likes us a lot, so he feels the need to visit us a few times throughout the holiday season.  Kelsey was super sweet, helping sissy open her presents...I mean that's what Big Sister's are supposed to do...right?
Two little girls...smiling at the same time...hard to come by ;)




 Then we traveled all the way down to Florida.  We went to Disney (another post) and then hung out with the family for the rest of the 5 days we were there.  Kelsey and Ashlyn loved every second of their stay.  Kelsey loves Skyping with Grandma and Papa, so to actually have them at her beck-and-call made her feel super special!  We love you guys!

 Me with my Sissy and Cousin Brittany!
 Kelsey's obsession with olives...yep...she has my appetite!
 The FAB cooks!
 Kelsey inspired tree...well she claimed it anyways!
 Spending quality time putting princess posters together with Uncle Shane!
 Dad and I hanging out at by the pool!
 Jarrod and Ash (smile)!
 Big and Lil...time for round two...remember, Santa REALLY likes us *wink*!

 Kelsey's doll house...let's just say, it was hard to pull her away from it to open other presents!
  Helping pass out all the presents.
 Me with Jon...we need more picks of us!  Goal for 2012!
 Meg with her super sweet bf Billy...my hero!
 Happy happy happy!
 My littles...they are so special to me!  I think about them all the time!
Kelsey at the beach...it was warm, but not at the beach...YIKES!
All 4 generations!
Then we drove ALLLL the way back to NC just in time to see Alena and the family!  The kids had a BLAST playing together during the day and through the evening.  Presents, presents, presents...boy was I glad I had cleared out some old gifts to be replaced by the new ones!
 Grandma and the Grand-daughters
 Fav new towel...seriously...she doesn't want to use our "regular" ones.  This one has her name and mermaids (Aunt Mel and Uncle Ben know well).

 Some secret message...Jon's favorite gift!
 Kelsey's Trunki...thanks Aunt Tonja and Uncle Tim!

Well, I guess Santa won't be seeing us til next year!  Thank you for all our gifts and the love of family during the holidays!  We are forever blessed!
