Moudy Christmas

We had a great Christmas with the Moudy Family, although we were disappointed that more of the family couldn't be there. Robyn & Vernon were not able to come as planned because of family health issues and Matt & Keely's family was not able to come either. We missed them all dearly, but made the best of it and enjoyed being together for a quiet and relaxing Christmas together. Lynsey got to come earlier than Robby, so we got lots of time with her! She is always so sweet to play with Avery and participate in whatever games Avery thinks up. This time, it was mostly about having "total makeovers", so this is what you will see in the photos below. Aren't they gorgeous? Lynsey spent a night with us and slept on Avery's bottom bunk, which made Avery so happy.

Lynsey and I got to have a fun afternoon of shopping together one day and I had so much fun with her. Lynsey is one of the sweetest people I've ever known, and so much fun too. I'm so glad to have her as a sister.

We didn't get nearly as much time with Robby as with Lynsey, but the time we had together was good. We celebrated our Christmas Eve early with our traditional Baked Potato Soup and then had a Dirty Santa exchange with the adults and Avery got presents from everyone!! Our pretend "Christmas Morning" we had our big brunch and Grandmother & Grandad Mimms joined us for that. We went to a movie and had a great day.

Aren't these 2 girls GORGEOUS??

Robby and Lynsey went up to Fritch to celebrate on actual Christmas Day with his family, so we had a quiet morning at home together and Avery woke up at 6:30 to see what Santa had left. He left this adorable Groovy Girls bicycle for her!

Granpappy & Mam came over for breakfast and spent the day with us. Granpappy took Avery to the park for her first ride on her new bike. We took a drive to Plainview and through the country and came home for a late lunch and a game of "Family Fued" on the DVD player. It was a fun and restful Christmas Day.
