Caden's First Christmas...Part 1

Christmas was here and over before we knew it.  It was extra special being Caden's first.  We couldn't thank God enough for this special blessing in our lives!

Our Family Christmas Card...(not sure why my hair looks red!)
We ventured over to Bass Pro to see Santa.  Christie, Braxton and Grandpa joined us.  While we waited for our turn we went around the carousel.  Caden was pretty indifferent to it. 

Finally his chance to meet Santa...
Could Caden be any less thrilled and Santa be a little extreme?  At least we didn't have tears!

We started the celebrations first with Grandpa, Christie and Braxton.  We had them over for dinner and then opened presents.
Braxton and Caden...
First time opening presents...


Getting the hang of it...




Thanks Grandpa for my gifts...


He is a happy boy!
We were going to Kansas for Christmas so we had our family Christmas on Thursday.  We all got comfy and got around the tree.  Caden checking out the gifts...
We gave Allie her gift first and that was Caden's favorite of all.  It took some convincing to get him to come back over by the tree.
Once he started opening his gifts, he was having a great time!
Got a Dinosaur walker from Nana and Papa.
Some great gifts from Great Aunt Debbie, Uncle Ronnie and Matt.
The Texas Rangers book was hit with Caden and Daddy!
He loved the monkey! He just gave it big open kiss and hug!
A moose pillow from Aunt Sara, Uncle John, Ella & Ryder...
Once he opened all his gifts, he moved on to a favorite activity of re-decorating the tree...
Daddy and Caden...
 Mommy and Caden...
There still more of Christmas to come...stay tuned!
