A Verry Nice Visit...

We had a verry verry nice Christmas this year. Gma and Gpa Taylor were supposed to come for the week of, but unfortunately Paulette's mother died so she went to be with her family in New York until friday *we won't even get into the yucky traveling she had to do, poor thing!*.

Christmas Eve we spent with Matt and Mindy *beans anyone??:)* and Grandpa Taylor, it was really fun. Our Christmas shared with Grandpa Taylor was very nice. He helped us hold baby William and to open those pesky Christmas presents out of their binding packages. What a joke some of those are! Do they really need to chain down a doll's hand AND legs AND neck with impossible twisty ties?? crazy. We took it really easy and had breakfast first and got dressed, you know, actually woke up for the event of present opening. We let everyone open a present and then get them out of the packages so they could actually enjoy them for a bit instead of ripping open everything in site. You know it's good when your kids exclaim several times that "it was the bestest Christmas EVER!" hee hee

then on friday, Jeff and Star flew in for the burial of Grandma Great Wallace. It was really fun to be with them and spend some time together. We played some wii games, and Star and my favorite was to watch the boys play the boxing game. hee hee.

And then a tired Paulette flew in too and we were really happy to see her!

Then William's blessing was on Sunday. It was really great to have so many of the family there to help us in the blessing!

I love this pic of the three of them, how cute!
