Emma Grace Estes - Christmas 07, Dec.30th

Wow what a first Christmas for Gracie!!! Pretty well the whole month of Dec. was full of parties. We started with our Sunday School Christmas party which is a blast the dirty Santa game is always so much fun. Then Kim hosted our annual friends get together, another good time as we all got to catch up on all of our lives and eat until we were stuffed. Then we hosted the families with children from China Christmas party and had a super time. We had kids everywhere with their families and it really was a good time of fellowship. We then had Christmas with Uncle Tom and his family out at Memaw's, we had a great meal and exchanged gifts. Everyone had a wonderful visit. Then we had Christmas with Memaw's family, Uncle Virgil and his family didn't get to come as he had an accident, we hope he's healing up well. We got Faith the Fri. before Christmas so Santa came that night and left a toy pony at the front door!! Wow the girls loved it. Memaw and Papa also came that night and the girls opened gifts forever, I think the play make-up was the hit of the season! LOL!! The next day Tim's dad, Renne, Kimberly and Chandra came and the girls got trikes, wow they LOVED ringing the bell!!! My sister Glenda got sick and wasn't able to come for Christmas, I hated that but knew she really felt bad. My brother, Anita, mom, Nicholas and Thomas then came for Christmas eve and we opened more gifts and ate more. Michale's great-g'mother died so he wasn't here until Christmas day. On Christmas day Tim woke Gracie up and told her Santa had come her eyes were so big when she saw the kitchen and vanity that he left!!! Then we went to Memaw's and opened more gifts. The day ended with my mom, my brother and his family coming for the eveing. It truly was a blessed Christmas and we are so thankful for everything. I really missed my dad this year and I know it was hard for mom to get through!! Ok now for some pics!!!
