Christmas in Toccoa

After church we hopped in the car and drove to Toccoa to celebrate with the Roberts side.  When we got there mom had all the presents set out in piles and ready so that we could open gifts before Ress Bess had to go down for a nap.  

All 6 cousins if you can find them behind the gifts.  This is the only cousins picture we got all day, so this will have to do.:)

My Aunt Ann (mom's sister) and her family came and we loved getting to spend the day with them.  Ann and Bud have two daughters, Angela and Jackie.  Jackie and her husband, Andrew, had a baby about a month ago.  Presley was a month and a day old on Christmas day.  We loved getting to meet her and hold her.  What a precious little gift she is!  

The adults played a fun game where different items were wrapped up in the ball of saran wrap.  It was SO fun! The game had us laughing hard. 

Mimi saved a big box for the kids to have a puppet show.  The kids were decorating the box for the show that was going to be the next day.  

Claire was very quiet for a little bit and I went to look for her and found her right behind the couch where we were all sitting just coloring away.  Thankfully the markers were washable and her Daddy got her all cleaned up.  

The next morning we had a puppet show with Mimi leading the team.  The kids for sure had fun with it and we had fun watching it!  

5 of the 6 grandbabies with their puppets.  Hannah was fussing as we were taking this picture saying that Jacob was smushing her.  Ha!!  

We forgot to get a cousin picture on Christmas day, so we did it on the day after, but unfortunately Katherine and Brett weren't there.  Angela lives in MD and Jackie lives in Charleston, so we don't get to see them often.  It was a fun 2 days!  

Abby and Presley are almost 9 months apart.  We kept a close eye on Abs to make sure she didn't "attack" sweet Presley.  

Emily loved getting to hold her youngest cousin.  She actually got to hold Presley for a long time and was as happy as a lark.  

Aunt Ann curled Emily's hair and Em wanted a picture in front of the tree with her cute style.  Also notice the new walkie talkie that Uncle Stan gave Em and Hannah.  They're having lots of fun with those things, which make a surprising amount of noise!

This sweet thing had a great first Christmas! 

We're thankful for family and friends and we're especially thankful for Jesus on this day and every day!
