Savannah was blessed with many presents:

Savannah's new bike from Mr. Craig (with no training wheels!):

Gran and Grandma Barbara gave Savannah some adorable new clothes:

Barbies

Savannah's Stuffie has 7 secret pockets:

Perfect for drawing princesses:

Harper and Savannah each received an El's T-shirt 

(El's is Tal's favorite restaurant):

Our family, as well as Uncle Benny, Aunt EJ, and Harper, 

chipped in to buy Grandma Barbara a Keurig:  

Keurig, Carousel, and K-cups

Here's how Grandma's new Keurig and carousel look on her kitchen counter:

For Gran and Grandaddy, I created a photo book with 

pictures from their 60th Wedding Anniversary Celebration:

Cutting the Cake

Throughout the book, I included quotes about faith and family:

"Family, where life begins and love never ends"

"Count your blessings

Name them one by one

Count your many blessings

See what God has done"

Savannah helps Gran turn the pages in the photo book:

For each family, I also made a calendar that included 

some of our favorite photos and memories from the year:

Savannah's Pixie Cut

Harper's Birth

Visits from Grandma Judy

For Harper's first Christmas, we gave her some personalized gifts:

This personalized ornament shows that Harper was 

9 months and 2 days old on her first Christmas in 2013:

This custom placemat and plate have a little girl who looks like Harper with her 

blue eyes and strawberry blonde hair:

On the back of the placemat, Harper can practice writing 

her name and ABC's with a dry erase marker:

Here are some new books for Harper that she can lift-the-flap and touch-and-feel:

 After opening presents, we all ate lunch at Buffalo Wild Wings:

We're so thankful for our family, for their generosity, and 

for being able to celebrate Christmas with them!
