Christmas In Virginia Part I

Well Christmas has come and gone :( Tomorrow M goes back to work after 10 days off...not sure what we will do without him! We drove to VA the Thursday before Christmas, it was an awful drive, it poured the whole way :(  M was amazing and drove the whole way, I stayed awake with him.  We pulled into my parents  driveway around 3:30am and went straight to bed! Our trip was fast, exhausting, and fun all in one. I loved being home but am so glad to be back in my own bed, in my own space :) There are a ton of pictures, here are the ones from my camera, I got M a camera for Christmas but we cannot find the cord to connect it to the computer so those will come later ;) Enjoy!

 sleeping on dog beds is a theme....

Friday night we went on the Richmond Tacky Light Tour and only took 1 picture :(

Christmas Eve, Hudson became obsessed with my cousin Mallory and followed her around all night!

We headed down to M's parents after Christmas Eve dinner and got ready for Santa

Santa came and left a note for H

When H came downstairs Christmas morning he could have cared less about any of the presents, he promptly sat down and started playing with his own toys....mommy had to open his presents


Mommy got a new pair of Hunter boots and a Barbour jacket....score!
