Peabody and Christmas Eve

Tuesday (21st) we decided to go downtown to ride the trolley and go to the Peabody. The weather was very nice and warm that day which was wonderful! We went back downtown on Friday and it was miserable cold and windy!!


Here is CeCe on the trolley

Tried to get a cute pic of the kids.....I picture Bryce saying "Come on CeCe, Mama said stand still and smile. And CeCe replying "Geez Bryce, we don't always have to do everything Mama wants us to do you know"!

That week in Memphis we also went to the zoo, the Enchanted Forest at the Pink Palace Museum, the Children's Museum, Bryce's favorite park, and the mall. My camera battery charger was left in Pensacola so I was scared to take too many pictures. We had a blast everywhere we went though, even if it was pretty chilly most days!

Now for Christmas Eve......

No cute picture of CeCe in her Christmas dress....Miss Thing was in no mood to pose for the camera. I didn't get a single decent picture of her that afternoon. I'm so glad I let her wear her Christmas dress downtown that day, I did get a couple of cute pics that day.

We've started going to a Children's service at Idewild Presbyterian Church for Christmas Eve and it is wonderful! They have little head pieces for the kids to get them involved in the service. And it doesn't matter if they won't stay quiet or still! CeCe and Jasper as angels, Bryce as a wiseman and Jude as a shepherd.
