Christmas 2010

A quick Christmas review in pictures. Of course, they are all out of order, but at least they're on here, right?
Sitting like a perfect angel waiting to open presents in OKC. If only we had taken pictures of the before and after of this pose!
The famous picture with Grandmums and Grandpa...always a fun shot to try!
Family in OKC!
We went to church with the family in Denton.
She looks so sweet, but I bet she was planning her escape route!
Christmas Eve 2010.
Sally seems a little overwhelmed by the wreckage created by our Denton family Christmas.
Let's open presents!
As a perfect kick-off to the holidays, we decorated gingerbread houses with all of the cousins at Aunt Jill's house. We were so glad we could join in the fun this year!
Aunt Jenni helped us eat, er, decorate the gingerbread houses.
My favorite picture of the holidays...
After we were all out of school on Christmas break we were able to get together with Chris, Taylor, and Piper. We decorated another gingerbread house and Christmas cookies. We had such a great time! The picture above is evidence of how much Piper and Sally enjoy each other. They were taking care of their babies together. It was wonderful to see them play!
Piper carefully decorated the house while Sally sat on the table and ate the candy.
We celebrated with Andress and Patrick (and Jack!) by a girls' shopping trip and dinner at Two Guys from Italy. Andress and Patrick gave Sally a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse set of bath toys. We don't go anywhere without our four new friends now!
Merry Christmas from Sally~

**On a sidenote- something I want to remember from Sally's second Christmas: All Christmas lights were "happies." And all "happies" were put up by Pop Pop. Sally decorated the tree with Nana and Pop Pop. No matter where we went we discussed all the happies and Pop Pop. Apparently he has been busy-- he decorated every neighborhood in the metroplex and even had time to do Highland Park Village! Pop Pop is amazing in Sally's eyes! :)
We also tried to teach her to say Merry Christmas and every time she would clearly say, "Merry Happy!" There was no convincing her otherwise!
