On Friday we had our Christmas with Boots and Banty ... we had a wonderful day spending time together ... the kids always have so much fun playing ... and the adults do too ... :) ... It went by way to fast ...
Ellie getting into her stocking ...
This was our gift from Boots and Banty ... talk about something we will treasure forever ... the beach is one of Ellie's favorite places to be and I love it ... I don't know how Boots found the time to get this done... but what a special gift ! I wish I could have gotten a better picture of it, but if I use the flash it causes a glare ...
We had a blanket made for Boots and Banty ... now they can wrap up with their grand babies every night ...
Months ago I saw an idea for memory bears ... so with the help of Aunt Courtney and Banty ... the kids got a teddy bear made out of one of Grammy's jackets ... thank you Banty for giving up the jacket and thank you Aunt Courtney for making such a sweet and special gift for the kids !! Also ... thank you to the Kennedy family for the bear pattern !

Boots and Banty got Ellie an easel ... maybe this will help keep her from coloring the walls in our house :) ... probably not... but hey ... I can at least hope
All the kids loved Tate's tent ... Boots was in there reading books with them ...
