Christmas this year was one of life's best moments. Seeing the excitement in all of the kids running around the house was truly a gift and we were happy to be able to share it with a lot of the family who traveled great lengths to get to Dallas. Here's Fayte waking up to find evidence of Santa's visit:

The kiddos feeling the Christmas spirit

They were smiling all day

Mommy gave Daddy some beautiful art from his beloved NY

Santa didn't forget Champ

Connor and Fayte work a carnival machine from Aunt Vian
Fayte went nuts for these Dora roller skates from Aunt Kristi and Uncle P

Some homegrown, homemade organic persimmon jam from Fayte Farms
Connor's swimming in gifts
Hudson too

Fayte renovates her gingerbread house

Fayte models her new winter jacket

Like father like daughter

Hudson rolled over for the first time that morning and Mommy was excited!

Too excited

Aunt Yvonne, Uncle Patrick and Aunt Kristi
Ready to chow down


Hudson the reindeer

And while we're sharing new videos, here's round 2 of Mommy antagonizing poor Hudson:
We'll be uploading some more pictures this weekend so check back soon!
