Christmas with Mimi and Pappy

Lots of fun was had at Mimi and Pappy Ratterman's house for Christmas, Ella was thrilled with her new Radio Flyer Wagon...and though not pictured...Aunt Katie and Uncle Nick were gracious enough to give Ella her first set of musical instruments! We'll make sure she has a sleep over and brings them with her!

Christmas with the Claytons

Ellas was pretty worn out by the time we got to the Clayton's...but she made it through, and was up the next morning, up to her usual mischief!













Christmas at Mamaw's!

Ella had a great time at Mamaw Ray's on Christmas day, everyone enjoyed watching her negotiate the presents, and try to figure out exactly what the tri-cycle was! She'll learn soon enough!

Merry Christmas!

Christmas Morning...and look what Santa brought....a playhouse for Ella! Once she saw this...the rest of it got forgotten about pretty quick. Her reaction when she first saw it (photo #2) made the whole day!
