Christmas Day 2009

Christmas day we went to Pocahontas to see my Grandparents and all my uncles, aunts and cousins! It was a FULL house. My cousin Joseph and his wife, Diane, came in from W. Virginia with their new baby, John! He's two months old and very sweet and happy...he smiled all day long! We had one gigantic family picture done and then we all took our individual pictures which turned out great! Josh got a really cool nerf gun, Mason got some awesome toys and I got some jewelry and a beautiful framed collage of Mason!


Here's grandpa having fun with Mason

Looks like Ely is very excited about Josh's nerf gun!

Christmas Eve 2009 McArthur/Baltz

Started pulling up all by himself a couple of weeks before Christmas. He's discovered it's not so much fun to be trapped in a playpen and he wants out! He's got his two top teeth coming in along with his left incisor tooth, so a total of 5 teeth! Oh and the child CRAWLS like a mad man! Aunt Sandra and Uncle Clyde came by with Christmas gifts for Mason! They brought him a couple of cute coats, blocks and an Elmo Jack in the Box. He loved them.

Too much fun made Mason very sleepy.


Got to test drive his new car before Christmas! Josh worked hard to put that car together!

Mason's first Christmas was a WET one. We were worried we wouldn't get to see everyone because the roads were so bad. This was Christmas Eve day.
Mason stayed the night with Maw Maw and Paw Paw McArthur the night before Christmas Eve. He could barely wait for his mommy and daddy to get there to open presents!
He officially got to open his new car at the McArthur's and he absolutely loved it!Nanny and Mason eating some lunchDaddy and Mason!

Christmas Eve evening we went to Grandma and Grandpa Baltz's house. Boy were there lots of toys! We got a surprise visit from Santa...Uncle A.J. surprised us by dressing up. Mason was NOT impressed, but I loved it!Grandma and Mason opening gifts
