31/40

So this blog normally gets updated on Fridays...but it has been a little busy with traveling. :) This week has been spent enjoying time off for Christmas with family. 

First - we celebrated Christmas in Nashville, just the two of us! It is the last Christmas where it will be just the two of us in Nashville for Christmas. 

We love to do stockings! Its a tradition

Every year Christopher gives me an ornament that has  also been a tradition. This is our 6th Christmas together married. He did good on the ornament! :)

Baby Phillips first ornament!

On Sunday, the 23rd we left for Douglas, GA to spend Christmas with Christopher's side of the family. We arrived late Sunday night and enjoyed some good time in South Georgia.

His family has a street!

We have gotten lots of exciting heirlooms and vintage items from when Christopher was a baby. We looked through lots of photos, tractors, blankets, and clothes. Our baby is going to be able to enjoy his dad's toys, blankets, and outfits for a long time! I love it!

Christopher was quite a cutie! :) We might need to re-enact this photo with our baby!

Christopher's baby clothes! So cute!

On Christmas day we went to Christopher's grandparents for Christmas lunch. On the way, we read from our first Bible for our baby, the Jesus Storybook Bible. My friends who have kids all say this is the best story. So we read the Christmas story on the way to granddaddy and grandmommy's house.

On Thursday, we left for Florida and went to visit my grandparents, parents, and siblings. We drove straight to Orlando, the happiest place on earth. We didn't go to Walt Disney World; rather we walked around Downtown Disney and Celebration. 

Downtown Disney with the family!

The whole family at Downtown Disney! :)

My Grandpa turned 80 this month, so we had a birthday party for him Friday night. It was good to be with my grandparents. We ate, laughed, and enjoyed some good family time.

Christopher and I with Grandma and Grandpa at an amazing Greek Restaurant in Tarpon Springs, FL called Hellas!

We have really enjoyed being off and just enjoying down time in addition to our parents. Baby Phillips has been great on the long drives and multiple beds. I hope that the ease of the pregnancy translates into an easy baby! Cross our fingers...

Until next week! :)
