Busy Weekend!

We had a very busy and fun weekend! Saturday morning, we saw Santa Cow at CFA. The girls took pictures and Emma finally warmed up to him. The highlight of the weekend was next: meeting Anna and Elsa. Greg and I have a Frozen fanatic on our hands and, luckily, the two girls were in our small town, sitting for a meet and greet. Emma was able to talk to them and sing 'Let It Go.' After Anna and Elsa, Emma had her first haircut and then we had some pictures taken of the girls. .


Sunday, we took the girls to the zoo. It was a great day to be there as it was 75 degrees and the zoo was empty.

Christmas Parade

We met some friends at the Christmas parade in Athens and had a great time. I had Sadie sitting in my lap on the side of the street and a hippie from the parade said that she was tiny and I needed to wake her up in the middle of the night to feed her. Thanks buddy! Emma had a fantastic time with Naomi.

Chips and queso, staple foods for Emma

Popcorn, another staple.

It's SANTA!

Thanksgiving

We drove down to Savannah and had a great time with the family. Greg and I got up at 5am to leave by 5:45 so that the girls could sleep most of the way. Ms. Chatterbox Emma talked continuously for over an hour, so I couldn't sleep. We enjoyed our trip and everyone got to see Baby Sadie, who stayed content, going from one person to the next.

Obsessed with coins.
