Christmas at Aunt Sandra's with the Herringtons

Saturday we had another Christmas celebration, this time in Wetumpka, AL at my Aunt Sandra's house (you know, the one who spoils our kids to death with love and gifts?!) CeCe especially was super excited to go to Aunt Sanda's house this year.  She's been talking about it for weeks! 
 
CeCe and Winnie dressed and patiently waiting for the crazy boys to get ready to leave. 
 
 
My beautiful neice!

Jude went first and opened his birthday present from Aunt Sandra
 Then the kids each took turns opening Christmas gifts.  There were so many of them we opened some before brunch and more after brunch! 


Thank you Aunt Sandra!! 
 
I love you Aunt Sandra!

 The crew!  Minus three.  It's still hard to celebrate these holidays without my Uncle Charles and Grandmother and Grandpa.  The last year we did Chrismtas in Wetumpka (two years ago) Uncle Charles thought he was sick with a cold or sinus infection.  It turned out to be much worse than that and would be his last Christmas with us.  My mom's cousin Milton joined us again this year from Birmingham and Sandra's good friend Carolyn was there with us.

 We got back to the lake and Bryce couldn't wait to try out his new marshmallow bow and arrow from Aunt Sandra.  It is FUN!  The next day we had a bonfire to burn old wood and he had a blast shooting the marshmallows into the fire and watching them grow and pop!
