Hard to believe another Christmas has come and gone. This weekend we will usher in a new year! 2012! The holidays seemed to fly by quicker than ever this year. I always hope that things will slow down and we'll be able to sit back and really take in all the magic of the season, but, as usual, that didn't exactly happen. I was sick the ENTIRE time I was off for Christmas, so that alone was a big hindrance. We spent Christmas proper in Ocean Springs and came back to Oxford on the Monday after. My nieces rode with us from Mobile to spend a couple of nights, and it was so wonderful to spend some time with both of them! I wish I had felt better for all the family time, but at least the mucinex, zyrtec D, nyquil, dayquil, etc kept me out of the bed and mostly present for the festivities.
this is a video of Sullivan checking out his loot from Santa. He still doesn't quite understand the concept of Santa, but has definitely enjoyed singing carols, talking about Jesus' birthday, and pointing out all Christmas related decor. He was also an avid un-wrapper this year! He really does make Christmas so special!
The next video is of the nieces and Sullivan singing Jingle Bells.
He had the best time hanging out with his cousins! They kept him happy and entertained the entire ride back from the coast! It was wonderful!
The four of us had breakfast out at Big Bad Breakfast as well. I sure wish they were closer, so we could do stuff more often! I hope they'll come up this spring and go to the Tupelo Buffalo Park with us. I know they would love to feed the giraffes!
For any of you who might not have received an Christmas card in the mail, below are the photos from the card. We had
Bill Dabney come take photos for us again. He did a great job with what he had to work with. Of course Sullivan had no desire to smile or sit still!
And this photo we snapped ourselves.
May you all have a safe and very Happy New Year!
