Full of memories made with my happy little family...

Twas the Night Before Christmas...

We hosted what has become our annual Christmas Eve drop-in.
I snapped a few pics early on, then got caught up in the hub-ub of the party.




BABIES!
On our first Christmas at our house, we hosted a dinner party that included three other couples with babies under 6 months old. The Cantrell's were there with Toby (2 months older than Cora). Here, the Cantrell's were back with Toby and their TWINS 6 weeks younger than Quinn.






I think I can say this without shocking anyone or hurting anyone's feelings or stepping on anyone's toes:
Other than Landon and I, my dad is Cora's favorite person.
If you've been around Cora for anytime at all, you know that the most frequent person she mentions is Papaw. When she talks stream of consciousness, it often involves Papaw.
"I have a swing at Papaw's house". "Papaw has a tractor" (actually, it's a lawnmower). "Papaw likes green beans". "I was talking to my Papaw". "Papaw's FUNNY!"
If I even mention Mia, Cora starts spouting what she's going to do when she sees Papaw.
If you look at that last picture, you'll understand why. There's dad, standing around in casual conversation, with lovey draped over his shoulder like it's an accessory!
