The day after Christmas we headed to Mobile to celebrate Christmas with my family. We had a great time! The night we arrived we had a nice steak dinner and did our family Christmas which of course involved several more fun gifts for Maddox. The next day Maddox opened more presents from his great-grandparents (I was hoping that he wasn't going to get used to having presents everyday since we were now on day 4 of gifts, but he has adjusted to no presents quite nicely...ha!) That night we had most of our extended family over to my parents' house. It was great to get to see most everyone, however there were several people we missed that we would have loved to have seen. Hopefully we will get to visit with them again before too long! We even got to have a short visit with my friends Melissa, Christina, and Kate. This was actually the first time that Maddox had met Melissa and Kate so it was great to get to introduce him to them. All in all we had a great trip and are so thankful for wonderful family and friends!

Ooh a cool V-tech nursery rhyme book from Gigi and Grandaddy!
Gigi helping me open my presents (or probably keeping me from falling over since I climb on just about everything now)...
A cool activity table from Aunt Erin along with a jammin' band resulted in lots of smiles...
