The next day we had dinner and did a little shopping with Darren's dad at the Partridge Creek mall. We had dinner at Brio after watching the Imagine Christmas play at church. Grandpa gave Brooke a super sweet rocking chair, but we did a video of her first sitting in it and I haven't taken any actual digital pictures yet ... those will come as soon as we get home. (I was a total picture slacker that night...sorry!!)
And then there was today.... lots of family, lots of gifts, and lots of excitement for a little girl! Brooklyn did well today, despite a few periods of fussiness because (as we found out the other day), she is cutting 4 teeth on the top!! (Sorry, Ella!) At any rate, she had fun with all the family, and I think overall she had a fairly prosperous day!!
That may be just a bit of an understatement! :) I don't know if you can tell, but this is the first grandbaby/great-grandbaby and this family is excited about having a little one around again!!
This was first thing this morning. We had to get up and see what Santa brought....
Opening her stocking...
She got her first apron so she can start cooking with Mimi.
Who needs a rocking horse when you can have a rocking butterfly?
Brutus getting in on the action.
Brooklyn and her great-Mamaw.
Some of the grandkids - we don't look related at all!!
My mom and lovely sister!
Brooklyn and Mimi
Brooklyn and her cool shades that her Aunt Katie got her.
My sister is very talented and this is a picture that she painted for Brooklyn. Awesome!!
THE SPOILS!!!!! Good thing we brought a U-Haul!!
Oh...happy day!

wow, Santa really loves that little girl! She looks so cute in all her pictures, glad you all are having a good holiday! Merry Christmas!
Looks like you guys are having a good time in Arkansas. And it looks like you guys can now open a toy store. I'm sure Ella will be shopping there soon! Oh yeah, no teeth on the horizon for Ella! haha!
