Christmas 2020

This post maybe a bit jumbled so just try to follow along with me.  Lot's of Christmas action all rolled into one crazy post.

A little late night Christmas light in PJ kind of night.  Checking out the gingerbread house in the Arlington.
A Christmas break afternoon spent with Nicki and Pop and of course our Santa Sacks!
The Bobo cousins!
A little sock exchange for the cousins

A little ride for Eli and Ollie to church one day.

And school the next!
B working hard on her teachers' presents this year!
AB's volleyball Christmas party..root for each other!!


B all ready for the last day of school in her Christmas pjs!
And a little apology from B to the elves...sometimes we get a little bit too excited when they are around!!!

A little Christmas sleepover with friends for AB to kick off the break!

And a little "me" time for the girls before the holiday rush.
Fun with G on Christmas Eve!
And as usual our elves had to make an entrance!




And this was me...most of the break.  Mitch got me an UGG weighted blanket and it was as if my body got stuck under it for the majority of our time off!
G had lots of stuff in store for the kiddos..and lots of stuff indeed they got!


A little Christmas lunch downtown


Chirstmas Eve Candlelight Service at church
Dinner with Bobo and Sheshe
This is one true statement!!  He loves these kiddos!
The hooverboard is back in action!
Cookie are ready for the big guy!


A little message left from the elves...
Charlie contemplating whether it is worth it or not..I feel ya!
Even Charlie got some presents!
And the scavenger hunt that really gets these girls excited!





B opened an early gift...the chair she had been wanting for her desk!
Always sad to see Ely and Oly go but they always leave us something to remember them by.
B had asked Santa for a backscratcher, camera and lots of crafts!!
And to our surprise look who I caught a glimpse of that night...so glad he never saw me!  But how cool is that??!!!

An Apple watch, makeup containers and headphones for AB
A hoover board, robe, slime...all B's favorites.



The girls were super pumped to open this gift.  Seats to the upcoming Broadway show of Wicked in Little Rock with all the Fowler girls!

Charlie taking in all the festivities and excitement!
Dad didn't think this clue was as funny..but the girls knew exactly what couch I was referring to!


New boots...
hdydroflasks...yes, we are bit late to the game on these I realize.
My favorite Christmas present all year!  We sold our home in Hope earlier in the fall and I had reached out to a local artist to draw the home for Mitch as a Christmas present.  AB heard me and said I can do that, and that she did!  Dad could not have loved it more and the fact that she did it so well was just a bonus!  We will miss that house but so glad to have this photo to remember lots and lots of good times and many Christmas memories there!


And more hunting that morning...

New dance leotards!
B helping in church again...just a little mixed in video roll from her help in service.  This girl is becoming quite the little speaker!
Nana and Pop's Christmas day fun!

In front of all Pop's hard work as he strings the white lights each year to make the house just perfect for all his girls!



And a little memory with Aunt Jill
Christmas baking with Nana!
A visit from cousin Lindsey!
Aunt Bettye and Uncle Art
And Pop opening the gift of the year...A remote clicker into our gate at home.  No more getting out of the car in the rain and cold!!  He was so excited!
Truth!
These girls love their Nana!


Trying out the new toys!
And just like that another volleyball tournament is on!!!  This time in Conway and our girl scored 9 serves in a row with no return!!!  Say What??  That girl is on fire!


Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!  Sorry there were not many pictures to report from the rest of the break we were too busy laying on our bums and enjoying each other's company, sleeping late and eating...lots and lots of eating!
