Let's BEGIN to Play Catch-Up...

So, a lot has happened since my last post. I am NOT even going to ATTEMPT to catch up in one post. I'll start with Christmas Eve!

Christmas was extra sweet for us because we had a new little Williamson to open presents with this year...Luke was wide-eyed at all his gifts and enjoyed being held and loved on by grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, etc. Of course, JT is at the really FUN age for Christmas...his excitement was contagious...to say the least! He has such a grateful little spirit which made my Christmas heart just swell with joy!

Thanks to Luke's generous birth mom and birth grandmom...our Christmas started on Christmas Eve. We told JT that he could open one gift from us and all the gifts from Luke's birth family before going to bed. Luke also got to open his gifts from his birth family...he got a little help "opening" his gifts from his big brother :) It was such a sweet time of remembering the sacrifice by Luke's incredible first family. Among Luke's gifts were some cute clothes, a big :) BIG :) stuffed doggie, a turtle toy, and Momma Tori's childhood book (with the sweetest letter to Luke)...There may have been tears (from the girl in the family) :) They were so sweet to include JT...they gave him a firetruck (which he l.o.v.e.s), a GIANT monkey (which may or may not have scared me the other day...it's as big as me...and, well, I thought it was someone in JT's room...haha), and some very cute pjs!
THANK YOU, MOMMA TORI AND GRANDMOMMA SUE!!!!

HAVE I MENTIONED HOW MUCH I ADORE CHRISTMAS?!!!?
