Merry Christmas

This year for Christmas we went to Nana and Papa's house!
Nana and the grand girls. The swing got a lot of use while everyone was there.  Amelia loved it and tried to swing on it whenever she could.
 All of the cousins swinging together.
 Amelia and Paige swinging together
 Amelia's first time on Blondie - what a thrill!  Alaina was very helpful showing her the ropes on how to go really fast.
 On Christmas eve, before church all of the girls got to open one gift.
 Amelia was very excited to open her gift.
 Plenty of time to take a ride in the car prior to church!
 A picture of all the girls.  As you can see - no smiles.  None of them were really in the mood for a picture, so they tolerated our attempts to make them smile.
 Then we tried sitting down.  A small smile from Paige, but not much from the rest.
 Amelia and Mommy
 Nana and Papa with the girls.
 James, Jenna and Olivia
 A picture of Mommy and Amelia walking into church.  Both Amelia and Olivia did really well in the service, Amelia made it to the last song and Olivia ended up joining shortly after in the hallway.  With their long poofy dresses and fast little feet they kind of looked like they were floating.  Luckily it was both Patrick and I watching them, because wow - they run fast!
 The black and white version of Amelia
 The Christmas Eve gift from Nana and Papa was matching pajamas!
 More swing time!
 I had no idea they had Herky pillow pets!
 Auntie Mel and Alaina
 The other favorite thing at Nana and Papa's was the 4 bead necklaces!  Very rarely did you find Amelia without them around her neck.
 Olivia opening a gift with James and Amelia wanted some of the action.
 Daddy got a surprise gift from Amelia - the Super Dad book......starring Daddy!
 Is this Olivia or Amelia!?  Hard to tell with the matching pajamas, but this is Olivia!   Amelia got a pink horse from James, Jenna and Olivia and Olivia really liked that gift!
 Here is Amelia on her horsie
More swing time!
