Christmas: Round One

This morning we had our first round of gifts. Having family so far away means strategic planning of the gift exchange. Mamaw and Papaw came down on Friday and Bobo and Iggs drove into town late last night to celebrate Christmas. Throw in Nonny and Team O'Bryan and there was quite a bit of gift giving going on...


One of Robbie's family traditions is to leave the presents under the tree unwrapped. Since Santa will not be coming until we go to NY, we left the gifts from Mamaw and Papaw unwrapped and placed them in front of the tree. As you can see from the pic below, the kids were really excited...


That Mamaw is committed to getting her boy whatever he asks for. So this summer Tate told his Mamaw he needed a fly swatter for his house, she got her boy a fly swatter. Here's a pic of Tate going after Nonny with his new gift...



And what would Christmas be without a sweet baby doll compliments of QVC? This one talks and sucks on her bottle. Needless to say, Lily is still rocking her baby as I type this post.


And then the grand moment occurred. With a joint effort from Mamie, Pops, Mamaw, Papaw, Bobo and Iggs, the kids got a Wii and several games for Christmas. Here's Tate doing the Wii dance...


Hours of entertainment...I am right now watching Nonny and Tate practice hula hooping on Wii Fit.

Looking forward to Rock City tomorrow and our big trip to NY on Tuesday. Happy Holidays everyone!
