2011 Wrap Up

{I'm not sure what's up with this new blogger business. I can't get my words to line up above/below my pictures!! Ugh!!}

We arrived home late Tuesday afternoon after a quick stop in Birmingham to see the Lawdrence's {and I took no pictures!}. Emma, thanks for being such a good sport about letting Avery Claire play and make a mess in your room!

We got home and immediately got to work unpacking our clothes, getting Christmas decorations put up, and getting the house organized!! I cannot go to bed the night after a trip until all of that is done! Avery Claire pulled out her new vacuum cleaner and got to work right beside me!

The next morning, we had visitors! Avery Claire tried to get Chambless to play with her new toys, but they were all a little too girlie for him! Thanks, Chambless, for letting Avery Claire dry your hair. We promise she won't pull it next time! We have played and played and played all week! We put together a few things Avery Claire got for Christmas that were too big to travel assembled.

Nana and Papa came for a surprise visit Friday. You were sooo excited when we told you they were coming, although you did ask "Matt?" You really wanted bff Uncle Matt to be with them! You were even more excited when they knocked on the door!

Mommy and Daddy got to have a date night!!

You were our little waitress and took everyone's order. You were so funny "taking" pizza from the tv. Every time Dusty fast forwarded, you said "I wan see." And you picked little pieces off the pizza for us.

Papa and Nana both toured your new house {claustrophic as it may be}! You had lots of fun with them and didn't want them to leave.

You were worn out and couldn't stay awake when we woke you up at 6 pm from your nap!

You may just make midnight tonight after your late afternoon snooze!!
