Christmas at GG and Papa's

We had the best time at Mom and Lee's beach house the week after Christmas.  It is always so special to us to go back to Amelia Island.  We love it there and it will always be a place we call home.  Paul was so excited to get back on the beach.  He must have spent a few hours out there walking the beach the first day we arrived.  The first night we had our Christmas together and then the days following, we just enjoyed the warmer weather, the beach and our family and old friends!

Landon and Elle so excited to see GG.
Their cute little Christmas tree.
They love each other so much!
Mom and I excited to be back together again...looking a bit tired, but happy.
Elle got so excited when she saw yet another round of Christmas presents!
Mom opening up one of her gifts.  :)
Landon received all 4 Ninja Turtles and has not stopped playing with them.  And now he's all about the TV show...we need to show him the good ol' classic movie now though!  And I still have my Game Boy with the Ninja Turtles game card!!
Daddy helping Elle open a gift.
Haha, look at her face!  More play food for her kitchen!
Landon loves opening gifts...
This is his 'crazed and excited' facial expression over all the gifts haha.
Elle loved her new light up telephone.  She's stylin'.
Mr. Potato Head!
Opening gifts from my grandparents!
Baby girl looked so pretty in her brand new headband.
Landon LOVED all of the books he received.
Paul made out like a bandit this year haha.  Let's just say he received A LOT of socks from his favorite stores...practical Christmas this year from the wifey.  :)
Landon got all his turtles on the back of his new truck and pulled his dragon on the trailer...smart little guy!
Elle loving all of the Christmas movies.
So did Landon....all snuggled up with Pierre.
Elle received so many baby dolls this year...so fun!!  She loves them all!!  And tucks them in at night...very cute.  Except her concept of tucking in is chucking them over her crib rail and as they land in her crib yelling, Ni-Night!
Playing with Cinderella.
GG and Papa enjoying Christmas!
They both got ear warmers for the chilly weather that comes through FL in January...Funny pic of them both wearing them and trying to figure out 'when' they are going to wear them since it's been in the 70's all winter haha.
Mom asked for a sign for their new beach house that had all of the last names of she and Lee, and their children to officially make it feel like home for Christmas...so here it is!  Turned out pretty well!  Gotta love the lizards...Mom is not fond of these little creatures, but Landon loves to chase them when he goes to their house.  So, we thought it would be a nice addition.  :)
Later that night, we made pigs in a blanket and Lee asked if we could do some fun designs haha.  They turned out pretty well I think!
Elle loves her new baby doll named Lily (written on her birth certificate that Cabbage Patch dolls come with).  Lily is the perfect name for a baby girl!!  Wink Wink.  :)

The next day, we were all gearing up for our Girls Day Out and Daddy-Son movie day!
Enjoying a lovely lunch at the Cafe at the Ritz with Mommy and GG.
She was quite the little princess all afternoon.
LOVED to get pampered.  :)
It was really nice to have a girls day out.
So sweet.
She loved the 'wa-wa'!
Taking one last stroll through the halls which were so beautifully decorated!
More pics to come of our great little visit!
