Wow- a new Car! Look out world, here I come!

Look what Santa brought me! (This was the look on his face when we showed him his new wheels :)


The sit and spin that scratched the hardwoods, and in now an "outdoor only" toy. Oops.

Our little family at Church on Christmas Eve




What our living room looked like after Santa came :)

Santa and Mrs. Clause go to our church, so we always save our visit for Christmas Eve. This is as close as Wyatt would go. He was a little freaked out :)

The holiday mischief is in full swing as you can see...



The Southern Living inspired bucket I made for my BIL, Joey. Beer, BBQ stuff and Bullets- what more could a guy want?



Merry Christmas!We had a spectacular Christmas. We went to church on Christmas Eve and celebrated Christmas day with Mark's family, then we packed up and headed to my parents house for the weekend. Both of my brothers were in town, so they got to spend time with Wyatt, and it was good to all be together in the same house again (okay, a little chaotic and loud at times, but nice :)

Wyatt has started calling my parents Mimi and Papa, and it is really cute to see him recognize them and call them by name since he doesn't get to spend as much time with my family as he does Mark's. Wyatt was about attached at the hip with my mom all weekend, and wouldn't let her out of his sight- of course, she was eating it up! They hugged, played and kissed constantly. He would run up to my Dad with his arms outstretched yalling "pa pa!" and my Dad would just melt. He was an absolute angel all weekend, and we had a ball with him- he wouldn't even take a nap since he was having too much fun!

We also got to see my best friend, Amy and her family. Amy was my matron of honor in my wedding, and her little boy is 11 months older that Wyatt. Wyatt and David had a blast playing with each other, and it was wonderful to see them again. They live in Warner Robbins, Ga. so we don't get to see enough of each other.

Hope you enjoyed the long ride on The Olis Family Christmas train. See ya in 2010!
