Happy 1st day of 2014! In the next few days, i'll be taking a look back at 2013, but I still need to finish wrapping up my Christmas posts! Yes, y'all, i'm sorry, we are still wrapping up all things Christmas around here!
But, I hope you rang in the New Year with style and sass and a glass of wine. I can assure you, I would've rather been catching my zzz's in bed!

After we let Adalyn open her gifts, we all started the rounds of taking showers, getting dressed, and fixing Christmas lunch. I absolutely took no pictures during that time, but I assure you we had a fabulous lunch of ham, hash brown casserole, and green beans served with crescent rolls.
Thanks to my momma for doing all of the cooking!
Gretchen played her new video game. A lot. Like, almost all day long. Which, is one reason we've held out to her being almost 6 years old before she received a video gaming system.
Addy and I tried taking a nap on the couch.
DJ and I my stepdad watched movie.
Megan napped, and G rested upstairs.
After we all had a second wind of energy, we went outside for the girls to play.
Gretchen roder her bike.
And Meggie rode her scooter.
Then, we came back inside to open stockings.
DJ and I have a really bad habit of getting all of the gifts opened, and then remembering that we have yet to open stockings. Since we forgot right after presents, we decided that we better wait until my brother, sister in law, and niece left, so my niece wouldn't be jealous of the girls opening their stockings.
We all took turns. Adalyn went first. She received some teething toys, restaurant placemats, and puffs.
Then it was Gretchen's turn. She received a water bottle, play-doh, and Sofia the first lip gloss and nail polish.
Meggie decided to open her stocking while still wearing her new Minnie Mouse helmet. She received pretty much the same things as Gretchen…. play-doh, Sofia chapstick, and a butterfly necklace.
Then, it was my turn. I received a new make up brush, hershey kisses, 5 lint rollers, a filtered water bottle, and peanut butter cup trees. Apparently, Santa does not want me to keep my New Years Resolution of getting back in shape, but he wants my pants to be lint free!
DJ was given a Football cookbook, because, you know, he has time to cook during football season!
The most ginormous peanut butter cup I've ever seen. And y'all, we just finished eating some of it, and it was so rich! And, I love chocolate, and anything rich tasting, but man, that was too much.
He also received a cookie scoop for when we bake cookies. We had one and it broke, and he's griped about it ever since, so Santa brought him a new one!
Then we attempted a family picture!
After enjoying a few left overs for dinner, my parents headed back to Arkansas and we cleaned up, and got Addy and Meggie in the bed.
DJ and Gretchen stayed up to work on her lego house.
I think I have one more Christmas wrap up post for y'all tomorrow, and then it's on to new and fun! I swear y'all!
