Santa came early in Texas...

Since we are headed to Michigan for Grayson's first Christmas, I asked Santa if he would come to our house in Texas a week early -- luckily, he agreed! We had such a fun time opening gifts with Grayson -- made me even more excited for our second Christmas next Sunday in Michigan. We're sure that she has been so "good" this year that Santa will have more gifts for her next week too!

Christmas Party at School

Yesterday was a big day for Grayson - her first holiday party at school, Cookies with Santa! It was fun for me to get to meet all of Grayson's friends and some of their parents. For the second time, Grayson loved sitting on Santa's lap! I can't say the same thing for some of her friends....enjoy the pictures!

Here were some pics from before she went to school:

I thought the little shoes were SO cute!

Meeting Santa

Everyone knows that Santa starts making his rounds the day after Thanksgiving, so we were pretty lucky that him and Mrs. Clause made a stop at my parents club when we were still in town. I was worried that Grayson would be scared of the big man in the red suit, but she seemed to think he was pretty neat. She really liked meeting Mrs. Clause too. :-) After posing for pictures, we had a great brunch! Yummm!!
