Kirsten loved all her gifts.

His sister-in-law Lisa pets Oddball.
I was happy with my family's picture.
Alec gets excited by this Lego set that he opened from Nonie.
Kirsten picked out Legos also.
We overdid the presents again this year (as I always do), but we had a great time.
Alec was thrilled with his MSU cowbell!!
Kirsten took one look at Alec's bell and looked for another package the same size and opened her cowbell and was just as excited.
More MSU gear, now we are ready for the Gator Bowl!
Kirsten looks pretty in her new coat. Unfortunately, it was a little tight in the sleeves, so we will be returning this one.

Sometimes the kids get tired of posing for pictures.
Sometimes they love to pose -- Pictures with Bully!!
Boo on Colonel Reb!! (we actually wish that Colonel Reb was back at Ole Miss, but we don't actually like Ole Miss!)
Being silly!!
I love having a real, decorated tree every year for Christmas.
Kirsten worked really hard on this gingerbread house.
Notice the detail on the roof. She did much better than I could have done.
Alec decorated the bottom half of the house and did a really great job also.
They are proud of their house.
Alec, Parker, Jackson, and Kirsten are excited to watch the movie.
The movie is about to start. YAY!!!
Alec is excited also!!
Another picture after the movie is over. What a great movie!!
Yummy!!
These two are so crazy -- they have been talking awhile about being mind links, so one of them crocheted this mind link for them to wear. The shirts were not really planned either, thus proving the true mind link that they have.
Drinking coffee and visiting.
Kirsten works hard on her cookies.
She made this very colorful Christmas tree.
I also like this snowman that she made.
Kirsten with some of her friends.
Alec was so excited to see everyone again.
