Winter Wonderland

Christmas night we went to sleep with flurries beginning outside. First White Christmas in FOREVER or 60's. Same difference {snicker}

Sunday morning we woke up to 6-8 inches outside and it was STILL SNOWING!

We bundled up. Heck yeah ski bibs & boots! Although not a big fan until we got outside. Those suckers make you sweat! sheesh. anyhooo...

Daddy taught me how to throw snowballs! We only pegged Mommy a few times!

Then it was time for serious business! 4 wheeling in the snow. Power Wheels style.

Power went out for awhile. :) Daddy is resourceful!

After being out for a bit it was time to head back inside and snuggle in to watch some movies and take naps. Christmas and Snow sure do make a boy tired!

Christmas Day!

Santa came to my house! WHOOOOOO!!!

I must have been REAL good :) Santa left a train table and set, huge Lego set and awesome old style wooden blocks with letters & numbers!

I checked to see if he ate the cookies and drank the milk I left. Yep! He only left 1/2 cookie but he has to eat cookies at all the kids houses, so that's okay!

Stocking had goodies too! SCORE. I love this morning!

After prezzies, we ate breakfast and relaxed until it was time to head to see Grumps, Gigi & Uncle Jare. Grumps had to work that day so off to the Fire Station to eat lunch and hang out.

I got a set of wheels!!!!!!! Too bad all those cops were lined up. Remember "Click it or Ticket" :)

Time to ride off into the snow! Radio blaring & all..

Hope you had yourself a Merry little Christmas! I know I did :)

Love to you all -

Holden

Christmas Eve!

On Christmas Eve we headed to Wilson to celebrate with Mema & Grandaddy. Great Grandma Hare, Uncle B, Aunt Mimi & Conner were all there too!

Of course we got to open presents right away! Uncle B got the first gift...not sure how that happened! Daddy said not to worry about what was on the corn hole boards, we were throwing to HIT the Carolina emblem anyways!

After playing with Uncle B's new toy we headed inside so Conner & I could tear open the presents! This year we finally got the whole ripping the package open and...seeing TOYS! :)

Getting ready to start!

Conner's present was a big as he was!

Conner and Uncle B reading to see if it was assembled. Um nope! It "ONLY" had a bazillion parts! Sorry guys! ha...not really

rocking out with my new Toy Story Drum set from Aunt Mimi & boys

After all the toys were unwrapped and everything untwist tied, screws removed & zip ties cut we had dinner INTHEDININGROOM. big stuff I tell you.

Now its off to set cookies and milk out for Santa. I know I'll get some good stuff tomorrow, mine are set on a NCSU plate! :)

Merry Christmas Eve!

SNOW DAY!

Okay so it really was a sleet/rain day but in North Carolina that equals no school! WOOOO

I only went out for a bit this morning since it was so nasty outside but I had fun while it lasted. Word on the street is Snow for Christmas Eve/Day. SWEET

Hope everyone stayed safe.

Also don't hate the outfit ;) it wasn't snowing enough at all for my ski bibs :)

fa la la la LA!!!!!!!

December, oh what the best time of the year! Christmas Trees, Santa, Prezzies and Mama's favorite...Christmas Cards! My first Christmas they couldn't decide which picture to use so they got two different cards! The next year was a bit easier as it was hard to catch me looking at the camera! This year they haven't taken "the one" quite yet but have some front runners for sure!

Mama loves using Shutterfly for her cards. They are sooo easy to use and they have tons of options to choose from. Makes it kinda hard to pick when they are all so fun! Between picking the card & getting me to stand still for a picture, it's quite a mission!

The designs this year are wicked awesome so Mommy needs YOUR help!

Here are a few front runners and you can help decide what's coming to your mailbox this year :)

or

or

clearly there will be a picture of ME in them. Sorry I can't show you those yet, but soon you'll get a little bit of Holiday cheer & me in your mailbox!

& Since today is December 1st...the Big Man coming down a little chimney countdown is ON!

Bloggy friends - you can get can free cards too! Head on over Shutterfly and see what giving is all about!

24 days & counting!

Merry Ho Ho Fa la la Christmas!

Gobble til you Wobble

Thanksgiving 2010 was a blast! We made the trek to Fountain to see my Great Grandparents & the rest of the family. After tons of food & lots of people in one spot, the boys headed out to play. Conner & my second cousin Jameson & I LOVED playing at the "park" aka swing set on the farm! After playing and hanging out there for awhile, we ventured back towards home to our second stop of the day for dinner with my other Great Grandparents. What a long day!

Pictures for all my peeps!

Daddy helping Jameson & I up the ladder

Con-man with a weapon!

I LOVE Uncle B

Giving Grandma Cobb a squeeze!

Aunt Julie stealing snuggles too!

and yes that is Mama and I ON A TRACTOR! Daddy took the picture as evidence :)

No pictures from the second stop. I was not in such a good mood! :)

Hope everyone had a Happy Turkey Day!
