Sipping hot chocolate and uploading photos go hand in hand as I try to fill you all in on our Christmas extravaganza!We had so much fun! I am so glad that we got to visit with my sisters and see my folks new house. We have become so spread apart between Boston, Austin, NJ, VA and OK that getting together doesn't happen very often. The only person who could not make it was my bro, Mike. But he was with his kids. Right where he needed to be. We had so much fun in OKLAHOMA! that we are excited to go back!
This my new nephew Noel. He was born 3 weeks after Peter.
Noely Poley! Such a sweet smiley guy!
My sister Emallie and me.

Horsen around.
Christmas morning the horses came over for some Christmas apples. It was so fun to see then at the fence. We all grabbed our shoes, coats and kids and raced outside to feed them.
Not a bad view, eh? My parents backyard. Kinda.
Back inside we got started on the gift opening!
Sarah, Claire and Noel opening presents. It was so fun to see my older sister and her family. We love them so much and really really really hope they get the Delaware gig. Claire has gotten so big! The last time I saw her she was 9 months.
Daddy helping Pete open one of his presents. Peter seemed to really enjoy himself!
Peter loved his cousin Noel. He loved to climb on him and give him great big slobbery kisses! Pete was really distraught when his couisns went back home to Texas. He got really fussy and wasn't himself for a couple of days. I really think he and Noel used to hang out before they were born. 
Grandma and her newest grandbabies!
Uncle Matt reading to Claire.We really kept ourselves busy with cookie baking, tree decorating, singing, and playing. We had such a great time, the only regret I have is that we really didn't take a family photo. Pete loved his first Christmas and he made it so much more enjoyable for me. HE was my greatest gift this year and my second greatest gift was seeing my family, Sarah,Aaron, Claire, Noel, Jennifer, Emallie, Mom and Dad and of course Matt and Pete. I love you all so much and can't wait until we can get together again!

I can't believe how adorable Pete is! He's looking like a little boy now... and I must say, a little more like his mommy too:)
