Christmas among other stuff...

We have a had a really fun week! Chris' grandma, Gran, has been here since the 21st. There has been lots of shopping, eating, and enjoying family time! Here are a few pictures from the last week....
Chris always picks up Parker and holds her like a baby (no, he doesn't love his dog at all). Gran thought it was pretty funny!
Chris being silly with the girls.


The girls on Christmas Eve before we headed to church. They looked awfully cute!


Every Christmas Eve the girls get to open one present. It has always been our family tradition (starting back with Aunt Sissy and me when we were younger) to get jammies for the Christmas Eve present. I found these great jammies on sale at Carters and the girls LOVE them! They are so cute!



Chris got online and had the girls "track Santa" before bed. When Santa got to the United States they rushed off to bed! Ireland thought this was really cool... it showed exactly what country and city Santa was in and told little facts about the country. It was really neat.


Pouring Santa some chocolate milk. Chloe asked if we could give him chocolate milk because, "he probably gets tired of drinking regular milk all night... 'cause I would."




They both asked for Pillow pets from Santa... Chloe wanted the dolphin and Ireland wanted the whale. Needless to say they were very pleased when they woke up on Christmas morning and those were exactly what was waiting for them!



Later on Christmas day Chloe decided Parker needed to share her Pillow Pet. Parker was taking a nap and Chloe ran upstairs to get her pillow and bring it down to share with Parker... pretty awesome if you ask me!



Tonight is Gran's last night here. We decided to go do something fun and enjoy our last night together for awhile. So we went bowling!
The girls both really love bowling!



Every time after Chloe threw her ball she wanted to sit on Chris' knee... it was pretty cute!


They both did really good! We played 2 games and by the middle of the second game they were starting to loose interest.... here's the proof...




All in all it has been a pretty good week! We will really miss Gran when she leaves! We are already looking forward to our next visit!
