Ready for Christmas!!


Claire, James and I are definitely looking forward to Christmas this year. We have had so much fun the past few weeks going to parties, decorating and watching Claire get excited about Christmas decorations and lights. We all have one more day of work and school, and then it's time to celebrate. Claire went to visit Santa Clause this past weekend. We stopped by the Bass ProShop in Prattville on Saturday and noticed that you could have your picture taken with Santa for FREE and the line was super short!! So yes, Claire and I went to join the other children. At first I was afraid Santa might be in Camo, but saw that he was dressed in his usual big red suit. Of course the Bass ProShop Santa had a real "stuffed" reindeer behind him....gotta love it! Claire didn't have on her cute "Santa picture" outfit, but I had a feeling she would cry this year anyway, so away we went. At first she did cry and it was the typical toddler screaming picture....but they ran out of ribbon while they were printing our picture and asked us to go to the front of the line and take another. Somehow the miracle working elf was able to get Claire to smile a little bit, and they snapped her photo fast! I'm hoping we can access her picture on-line today and i'll post it this afternoon along with some other pics from the last few weeks. We've been to Granny & Paw Paw's rib party, dinner with our friends and a few other family celebrations. We will be at home in Alabama for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day and will celebrate Christmas with the Creel's, and then we will drive to Baton Rouge for a long weekend afterwards with the Spradley's. We hope everyone has a safe and happy Holiday!
