Christmas in Kentucky

We went to see my extended family in Kentucky after Birmingham. We all stayed at Tim and Debbie's house. It was so nice to be there and see all my family and cousins who I haven't seen in about 3 years. We had quite a sweet setup at the compound. They had a playroom stocked full of toys- dollhouses, GI Joe cars, dress-up clothes, matchbox cars with tracks... you name it! The kids had a BALL! All the kids slept on a huge pallet in the room with Mallie and Dallie. It was a giant slumber party every night!
 Saturday morning, Tiffany and I hosted a baby shower for Amelia and baby Fox. Julia was so nice and let us host it in her home. Everything turned out great!
 Next, we had Christmas with Tim, Debbie and their kids. It was just like the old days growing up and going to Louisville for Christmas. We had a big brunch and then opened gifts. The kids continue to be spoiled and received so many great presents.

 Uncle Tim and Debbie's Big New Years party! Once again, it was just like old times. So glad most of my cousins made it! It was so fun to meet their kids, too.
 We went bowling the next day with lots of our family! It was a lot of fun.  Thanks to Mallie and Dallie for arranging all these fun activities and coordinating our whole trip to KY. It was a lot of effort to get car seats, pack and plays and everything there, but they made it all happen!
 Anna LOVES my cousin, Brittany! She won't go to many people, but she would jump into Brittany's arms anytime she saw her. Thanks Mommy #2! We sure do miss you!!
 Uncle Tim and Debbie spoiled our children rotten. They love them so much!! We are so grateful to be able to spend so much time with them and that they have gotten to know our kids so well. Wish we all lived closer!
