Christmas #3- Blacksburg, VA

Christmas #3 was spent down in Blacksburg at MomMom and PopPop's house! You would have never known it was our third round as the girls were equally excited (more like ecstatic) to see family and of course more presents! While we were there we got to celebrate with MomMom, PopPop, Uncle Kev, Aunt Kris, Uncle Matt, Bellamy, Beckham, Great-PopPop, GG, and Uncle Vince and his boys! We talked, laughed, ate, played games, went to the movies, watched football, ate, had a moon shine tasting, relaxed, ate, played with new toys, and ate (did I mention that one already?!). Our four days were jam packed with nothing but fun and great company! The little ones loved being with each other and I swear they didn't stop giggling, playing, running, and laughing the entire time...literally...the ENTIRE time! As for the "big kids" we were so happy to all be together and appreciated so much being able to slip away to the movies while the grandparents watched the wee-ones. Looking back on our visit, I realized that there was four generations all under one roof. That instantly leaves my heart feeling warm and full. Christmas ended just as it had started, with feelings of love, appreciation, and true joy.  MomMom and PopPop, thank you for hosting such  a wonderful Christmas and of course for being so incredibly gracious with your gift giving. You made Christmas once again feel so magical!

The Minnie piano from Uncle Kev was a hit!








Mackenzie got a Minnie hair and make-up kit from Great-PopPop and GG and she gave Uncle Matt a  makeover (several actually)!

This little boy cracks me up! He LOVED walking around with the dart on his head. 
Of course a game of shuffle board was played...

Cheers to another magical Christmas!
