A busy busy holiday season!

Wow! The end of the year came and went like a blur. It was a holiday of mixed emotions. We kicked off the festivities with a wonderful visit with my Godmother Aunt Sally (I hadn't seen her since I was pregnant with Aiden) and was able to introduce her to my two boys finally! :) Aunt Keri come into town that night too to meet Keegan and spending the night with us - always a good time. Gramps and Muck arrived on the 23rd along with Uncle Chad and Aunt Mimi with our super cute nephew Boston. They came and met us at church and then we went to dinner. Christmas Eve was spent at Ga and Mammy's with Uncle G and GGMA and GGPA where of course the boys were spoiled absolutely rotten!

How many adults does it take to put a children's toy together??? :)

All the excitement wiped Keegan out

Santa even came early

On Christmas morning Aiden woke up to find this.... Thanks Santa

Unfortunately Drew also lost his Great Aunt on Christmas Eve which was sad but not unexpected. Christmas Day was spent in Temecula with Drew's whole family including Uncle B, and Uncle Tyler & Aunt Debbie along with the rest of the crew. It was a great day.

The 26th was a little more somber as we attended Grandaddy's memorial service whom we lost earlier this year. Muck put a slide show of Grandaddy's life together and it was amazing to see how much Keegan looks like Grandaddy when he was younger. Unreal! After the memorial we celebrated Christmas with the Schuessler side of the family which was great as well. Grandma
"GG" got to meet Keegan for the first time. With Drew just starting his new job just the week or so before the holidays, we weren't able to make it up for Cox Christmas this year. It's the first one we have missed sense we've been together which was a big time bummer.

Muck decided to stay in California so she could attend Aunt Genell's funeral so Aiden and Keegan had an extra week to soak up Muck time. For New Years we all went to Mammy and Ga's for dinner and a "spirited"
game of Mexican train and then rang in the new years. Both boys were well asleep when the ball dropped. We are looking forward to seeing what 2011 has to in store.
