This Christmas we were in Waco at my parents house. We had a whirlwind of a time. As always it was crazy but, so much fun! We went to meet Santa, went to Build-a-Bear, had a birthday party for Jesus, went to the children's museum, went to paint pottery, went to lots of movies, played outside in the snow??, ate and ate and ate and still managed to have time for the usual traditions.On Christmas eve we got our usual healthy Purdy buffet ready (chick-fil-a nuggets, queso, cake balls, cookie cake, and a little fruit). Then we started opening presents:)
Lila was a little overwhelmed by all the chaos, but LOVED playing with all her great new gifts. The drumsticks were a big hit! Seriously, where are we going to put it all??We paused for a brief minute and went to the FBCWoodway church service. My dad did a great job leading the service and Angie sang beautifully! Lila didn't really understand the idea of sitting quietly, so Honey took her out to play!
When we got home we opened our matching PJ's (thanks mom) and took our group shot. Always interesting trying to use the self timer!! Turned out pretty good though:)
Then Honey and GP opened their annual snapfish grandchildren book. Caryn put together a book of all the events of the past year with the cousins and Honey and GP. Such a treasure! I loved looking back on how much Lila has changed and grown this year!

Then we put the hooligans to bed and opened grown up gifts! *** side note***After the Wood's had gone home we got a phone call that Ryan had asked Jesus in his heart before bed!!!! What an amazing day!
The next morning we woke up EARLY and went to see what Santa had brought!
Lila must have been a good girl this year!
She was in awe of all the new toys! Thanks Santa!
The whole day was spent enjoying all the new goodies! Hello Batman:)
Another wonderful memory this year is Lila started walking on Christmas with all the family around!
I LOVE my extended family of Purdys and had so much fun, but oh how this duo makes me feel so blessed!!! Merry Christmas 2009

Yea, she's walking! The world is about to change, and more fun with it. I love Josh's glasses - make him look every bit the doctor that he is! great to see you at Starbucks for the little bit that I got to.
Great post sis! That last picture is awesome. I am so thankful for y'all, and I absolutely adore miss L. It was a Merry Christmas:-).
