Christmas Round Up

First Christmas…what what! It was soooo much more fun this year with Mason. I think my family would just like to buy and watch Mason open his presents. He was so fun. It being his first experience with presents I really didn’t think he would care.  In fact, I thought the box and paper would be more interesting to him then the toys. WRONG. Boy was I ever wrong. It was hard to get him to move from the first gift to the next one. He would find a button or noise and done. And he would say I LOVE IT with a big smile. I am so glad I have the happiest baby on earth.

Each year, we spend Christmas Eve with my family and Christmas night was spent with M’s family.  We spent Christmas morning and day together as a family. It was so much fun. I will probably say that 10 more times. Be prepared for picture over load. I restricted myself here.

My parents and Michael and I took Mason to see the lights at the park in my hometown. He was sleepy, but he liked the light.MasonAllen_Nov_12_15_2013_3828.NEFMasonAllen_Nov_12_15_2013_3830.NEFChristmas Eve. I just have to say that my dad, Mason’s papaw, is his favorite person! We could all be in the same room and Mason would pick him every single time.MasonAllen_Nov_12_24_2013_3833.NEFIt is CHRISTMAS!!MasonAllen_Nov_12_24_2013_3835.NEFI love this look.

About Us

My photo
Michael and I have been together since 2006. We met in college at the University of Arkansas and began our life together. We bought a house and moved to Fayetteville from the Chicagoland area in November 2009. We were married in 2010 and had our first child, a boy, in 2013. Our favorite thing to do together is travel and we have gotten the opportunity to go to lots of fun places. We are working, breathing, playful parents. Our fur baby and child are the center of our crazy life, but we wouldn't have it any other way.
