a very merry christmas

it began on christmas eve at gg and pops.

and continued at grandmama and grandaddy's...

where 4 (plus two in-utero) cousins ages 3 and under slept under one roof. fun times.

if you don't count trying to get those 4 little ones to sleep, the madness didn't begin until after the traditional reading of the christmas story. but it was the best kind of madness. paper ripping, kiddo squealing, battery hunting madness (though not captured due to participating in it).

the one thing he (consistently) asked for ~ a dump truck. thank goodness one was found (two, actually) on a last minute trip to walmart.

oh, it's the little things.

checking out the snow flurries ~

and enjoying them with the cousins.

a very merry christmas was had by all.
