Christmas 2008










































































































Wow! This Christmas felt like a world-wind! Christmas Eve, we packed up and went looking at Christmas lights and got Maddie to bed so Santa would visit. Daddy and I (a.k.a. Santa's Helpers) were up late into the early morning! We woke up to the sound of Nena and Nite-Nite coming in the front door to share the excitement of Maddie and what Santa brought her. Aunt Izzy and Kevin showep up too! Maddie recieved a kitchen set (which she was cooking all morning long for us), a beauty parlor (my mom gave her a tiara set and she would sit in the front of her mirror staring at herself with it on an brushing her hair...too cute)! Maddie now also has a "bebe" which she strolls her around in her stroller and carries her like a football!

After we all had our Christmas breakfast, we loaded up and headed to Hot Springs to celebrate with Wade's mom, dad, sister and nephews. Did I mention that Kamee and Papa gave Maddie a cedar playhouse that took daddy and friends 2 days to put together (be looking for those pics soon)!

We then headed back to LR and went over to some friends and celebrated with them. This past weekend we went to my dad's house to celebrate Christmas with Pops, T and Papa D.

This Christmas has been so special to me! We were able to celebrate it with all of our loved ones. I think that sometimes we forget the meaning of Christmas..to me it is, family, hope, love, faith and forgiveness. I hope everyone had a blessed holiday and we look forward to what 2009 has in store for us and Little Maddie! Happy New Year!
