Mema & EG

Ella Grace and Mema playing after our delicious lunch together at Jim's Place.

Meewes Christmas! On Monday, we went over to Brian's parents to celebrate Christmas. We had a yummy dinner at a local italian restaurant and then headed back to their house so that Ella Grace could open her gifts. She scored big! Lots of toys, some clothes and PJ's, books, and a plush bunny chair. Of course, she loved eating all of the paper!

Half Dressed

Being half naked is the way to go! At least it is for Ella Grace:)

Christmas with the Phillips Fam

Christmas Day, our tradition is to have Christmas with my mom's side of the family. We headed over to Gran and Pop's house and enjoyed some good ole' southern cooking (ham, turkey, potato casserole, dressing, sweet potato casserole, ambrosia to name a few) and each others company. Rusty gave the best present to Gran - his teeth impression with holly berries in between:) It came in a Mednikow bag.

Christmas Morning

Christmas morning, we opened presents with my parents before heading over to my Gran's for Christmas with the Phillips family. Ella loves wraphia and Remy! Brian received some clothes and an iPod docking station with speakers. I received a lot of clothes, some really pretty picture frames, a new purse (yay!), desk calendar, jewelry, toggle coat, and I'm sure I forgot some other things. Ella received a kitty cat stuffed animal, some cute outfits, a beautiful winter coat, wagon, and some toys. We all did good!

Looking cute in her Christmas PJ's

Ella loves Remy...and Remy loves her. If only Otis could be this sweet!

Some pictures of the decorations at my parents house. It always looks so beautiful:)

A Kelley Christmas

The Kelley tradition is to get together on Christmas Eve for some Christmas cheer with my dad's side of the family. This was the first year since 2004 I have been able to be here with them. It was nice spending quality time with everyone and sharing Ella Grace with all!
