Christmas Poole Party

The Pooles hosted an amazing Christmas party this year.

Lexie looked like one of Santa's Little Helpers that pushed the kid down the slide in the movie "A Christmas Story."

We had a great feast

Even Willie was invited to the Poole Party.

Thanks again Lexie and Wes for the outstanding family party. As we can see, we really tuckered her out.

Thanks everyone for all of your gifts we had a great time.

Christmas Morning at Grandma & Grandpa Iannace's

After opening gifts at our house, we packed up and went to the Iannace's for an outstanding breakfast and way too many gifts.

As you can see, way too many gifts!

Unfortunately, we did not take enough pictures. Uncle Joe, Grandpa Joe, and Willie were also there. Thanks everyone for all of your generous gifts.

Christmas Morning at Our House

Andrew was so excited for Christmas he woke up several times before the morning (or it could be because he usually wakes up everynight several times)

No coal in Andrew's stocking

Santa gave Andrew plenty of presents

Andrew had a great time opening presents

Santa did not forget about Willie on Christmas. He got a present as well.

Lots To Be Thankful For......

Not only was it Andrew's first Thanksgiving, but it was his first time at Papa and Hon's house.

I don't know about Andrew, but that would give me nightmares.
