post pageant

After the boys Christmas programs, we stayed and chatted with friends and family for awhile. Jill and Gray had come to see the boys as well as Noni & Papa AND Uncle Casey, Aunt Rae and Elia. We were so glad to have them all with us!! 

Maddox and Gray are actually alot alike! They are both very mischievous but also know how cute they are and so are able to get out of trouble by just smiling or saying "I love you." They also both have their mommies wrapped around their little fingers! Ha! I think they're going to get into lots of trouble together in the future...

Elia is growing up so fast. She's such a pretty little lady!!

Before we left, Elia wanted to give everyone a hug. My boys still try to get out of hugging but they've said good-bye to Elia enough to know that they ARE GOING to give her a hug! Gray, though, wasn't too keen on the idea and tried to run away. I think Elia was getting her hug one way or another...haha!!

After a week of preparing for the Christmas program and then a full weekend of dress rehearsals and lighting set-ups, it didn't take but a few minutes for both the boys AND Brandon to be out cold!! So, while all the men in my life snoozed I got some much needed quiet time to myself with the TV.
