We pray that all of you had a blessed Christmas and are enjoying the excitement that a new year brings. We found ourselves immersed in Christmas tradition this December as we prepared gifts, baked and decorated cookies, traveled, and soaked up our time with family. Here's a little photo journey.

Baking Mocha Shortbread cookies with Mommy. Yes, it is 10:45 and he's still in his 'jammers. He loves to wear 'jammers.

"An early Christmas" morning at Lolly in Pops with special guests, cousin Reese and cousin Ellis.
Baby's First Christmas!
Candleight Dinner
Finishing off the day by opening up our stocking before bedtime.Popping Poppers on Christmas Eve. A wonderful celebration hosted by dear friends after our worship service.We were able to make it to Memme and Grandpa's at there new home in Virginia on Christmas night and in time to still celebrate with the entire family only one day late. Rowan enjoyed jumping into life with his grandparents and cousins. From left to right, Connor, Kyle, and Tyler.
Evangeline came out of her shell the longer we visited and really grew by the time we left. At Memme's she proved she can roll and spin to get to her toys and even rolled from her front to back for the first time!
We did it! A rare shot of all of us in the same photo! Pintos, Sr. Rudnicks, and Jr. Rudnicks. Now it's time to start all over again with a new year - how fun!
