Lilypie 5th Birthday Ticker

We went to my dad's hunting camp just outside of Greenwood the day after Christmas.
My dad's birthday is the 27th so we went so Tal could hunt and so we could celebrate my Dad's birthday!

Mary Bratton told me that we had to have a 'hunting camp' themed birthday party for Paw Paw... so we did!
We made him signs and hung balloons all over the place.

tried to take a picture of Paw paw and his sign and a balloon ended up in the picture!



















trying go get a picture of the sign that MB colored and a balloon ended up floating in the picture!
the kids had lots of fun with the balloons!

We don't have that many pictures of Christmas morning because we made video of most of it.
Mary Bratton found the most perfect gift that she had to get for Ta Ta and Baby!

























a puppy travel bag for baby to get it so she can travel with Ta Ta!
Baby loved it!


















And she just HAD to get Baby a mirror so that she can look at herself. it is just this little mirror that we found at Stein Mart.
NOT meant for dogs - but Mary Bratton took one look at it and said that it is perfect for Baby.
Ta ta said that it will be perfect for Baby to check her bows.
Look at Mary Bratton putting the mirror in front of Baby's face!


















Here is Mary Bratton at the Hunting camp playing with some of her dress up clothes that Ta Ta gave her

Mary Bratton got a Leapster LMax for Christmas. I started crying when I saw her sitting here playing it.
She is getting so big and seeing her do big girl things just makes me want to stop time and keep her as little as I can for as long as I can.

























She has crossed her little ankles like this since she was a baby. Ta Ta first noticed that she always did it.
Ta Ta - I took this picture below for you!



















Mary Bratton also got a pink digital camera that she loves!
After she opened it - she would take pictures of all of her other gifts before she opened them.

I love this picture.
We tuned in to get Barbie Bassett's radar forcast on Santa.
She was telling us that Santa had been spotted and was on his way.
I could see how nervous Mary Bratton was all night. She was so excited but skiddish of every noise.
I remember feeling that way when I was a little girl!!
