First Christmas



Lola had a great first Christmas. This year we spent the Holiday in Atlanta with my family. We had so much fun watching Lola take everything in, it just made it all a little more exciting. I didn’t think she would be into the gifts, but she loved getting to help open everything. She was mainly interested in eating the bows and the wrapping paper.



On Christmas Eve, my brother Jonathan had us over to his house for dinner. He got Copeland’s to cater the meal (which was nice since they closed all the Nashville locations), it’s not his style to cook. We had a delicious meal, my favorite was the Chocolate NY Cheesecake!

While in Atlanta we got to visit with my good friend Joni & her little girl Lilly, she was such a doll!

We got back from vacation on New Year’s Day and had Christmas with Andrew’s family. We had a great dinner of yummy prime rib and so much fun opening more gifts. Thanks to Andrew's parents for keeping brother Jack while we were gone! Helping Grams open her gifts

Aunt Whit & Uncle Ed gave us a year pass to the Nashville Zoo, we can't wait to go!

Lola is just too cute! She has more hair than Mckinley did at that age, which I didn't think was possible - Mckinley had a lot!
