Our Christmas!

Whew...Sorry it's taken a few days to update, but I've been being a complete slacker this week! We had a great time over Christmas! We got to spend lots of time with our family, and we truly enjoyed Anna Kate on her very first Christmas. Christmas Eve we hung around the house for most of the day, and then spent the evening at Tyler's dad's house. Anna Kate had a fabulous time opening her presents, though, as most parents with kids Anna Kate's age would attest to, she enjoyed the bows and ribbons SO much more! ;) Then Christmas morning, Tyler and I got up a little earlier than the little one and had our Christmas, then woke Anna Kate up to show her what Santa had brought her! Then, Tyler's mom and stepdad came up and we exchanged presents and had brunch. That evening, we went out to my parent's house and had a wonderful dinner and Anna Kate opened up one present per Granna's request! :) Uncle Ben and Aunt Lacy came in last weekend, and we had Christmas with them Saturday night. In the midst of all that, Tyler had the grand opening of the Callahan store...here are a couple of pics from that! We are more than thankful for its success so far. It is definitely due to a lot of hard work and prayers from everyone involved!

If you guys haven't had a chance, you must see the store. Tyler, his dad and everyone involved did an amazing job, and Robin, I have to say that I haven't seen THAT many stores in my time, but this one has to be one of the most beautiful showrooms EVER!!! Congratulations guys!

Okay, here's the montage. I must apologize for the 80's Sandi Patty song, but it's one of my favorites, and it seemed perfect! Enjoy and Happy New Year!

Everytime I have seen a commercial for the new store I have thought and prayed for you. It is exciting but I know challenging all at the same time. Miss you.
