Wow, January is almost over. I've been trying to find the time to blog about the holidays but a walking Mr. Mitchell keeps me busy. Oh well I guess better late then never. We had a wonderful Christmas mostly because Mitchell was almost a year old and was very much into opening gifts. We spent the weekend before Christmas, 20th of Dec., at Granny and Papa Wiggins house. For a fun fulled time with 20 plus nieces and nephews and Jason's 5 siblings and their spouses. This is what Rylee and Devon look forward to every year. The gathering is a loud and exciting time for all. Christmas Eve was spent at Mawmaw and Papa Stark's house for a quite relaxing evening of dinner and gift opening. Papa Stark has a love for trains and had set up a train with tracks around the Christmas tree. Wow this was a big hit with Mitchell. He might follow in Papa's foot steps with his love for trains. Mawmaw's house was beautifully decorated and we all enjoyed her decorations. Christmas day was spent at our house. It began early somewhere around 6ish, with Ms. Rylee waking us up for Santa's visit. We then proceeded to wake up Devon and began opening gifts from under the Christmas tree. After mom and dad woke up and had several cups of coffee, as a group effort we started preparing Christmas dinner. What a great dinner it was too. The rest of the day consisted of laying around the house and watching Christmas movies and the children playing with their new gifts. We had a lot to be thankful for this year. The birth of our wonderful, handsome, great baby boy Mitchell. Devon graduating high school and starting college. And Rylee continuing to grow into this wonderful, caring girl. Her love for natural and animals is a huge part of who she is and continues to be so. Happy New Year to all and thank goodness 2009 is finally here!!
