A White Christmas

We indeed had a white Christmas! Addisyn was fascinated by the snow, the gifts, and the celebration of baby Jesus' birth (Addisyn says, "Baby Jesus is a nice pretty boy.") We got in some nice visits with all of the family, ate til we could not eat another bite, and enjoyed some time off work. Here are some pictures of our eventful holiday...

Christmas Day at Dave's...

Christmas morning at our house...






Christmas Eve at Linda's...





Did I mention that I like to open gifts early?? Here is Addisyn trying on some of her jewelry and shoes (an early gift from mommy)- Just like Brian opening his new grill and shop vac prior to Christmas (I just get so excited I can't help myself!)...


Addisyn eating snow off of the dog...


We hope everyone has a Happy New Year!!!

We will post again soon!

Love,
Lindy, Brian, Addisyn, Bear, and Cody

Jingle all the way

As usual, I have uploaded my pictures in reverse order (i.e. the first pictures were actually the last ones taken). Anyways, here are a ton of pictures from the past few weeks- Mt. Holly Christmas Parade, our trip to the Christmas tree farm, Asheville, and more. Enjoy...

Our last day in Asheville we went back to the Fun Depot before heading home...




A quick swim before packing up the hotel room...



Asheville's Fun Depot...













We stayed at the Brookstone Lodge (a new hotel in Asheville)- it was very nice and conveniently located near everything- the Biltmore, downtown, and Asheville's Fun Depot. It had a nice indoor swimming pool and gym too...



We spent our first day at the Biltmore and visiting the petting farm at Antler Hill Village...









Monkey Joe's...





At the Schiele Museum (We highly recommend the yearly membership- it gets you into 3 different museums in Asheville and 250+ around the nation)...





We went to a Christmas tree farm and got to experience a true "winter mix" of wind, sleet, and snow. It was quite chilly! We did finally get a Christmas tree though, and Addisyn helped us decorate it! Here are some pics...








For my birthday (I am 25!!) we decorated cupcakes. Addisyn LOVED decorating cupcakes. Afterward she took her cupcakes, sat on her potty, ate her cupcakes, and watched TV all while going potty on her potty ;)...






Addisyn is still dancing with Carolina Dance Explosion. They participated in the Mt. Holly Christmas Parade on December 1st. The little ones got to ride in limousines!...






Cody...



The professional picture of us taken at the Biltmore...


We will post again soon!
Merry Christmas!!!!

Love,
