Christmas Day Part 2

We had such a grand day on Saturday. After we all settled in, played, changed butts and just generally spent time together as a family, Amy wanted the kids to see the horses. We braved the cold Kansas winds to go up and see them. The kids were in horsie heaven!







Aubriella was fascinated with Dakota and I think he was fascinated with her too!















Aubriella couldn't get enough of the equines. Mia was enjoying herself as well.

My precious showed her cousins just how to feed the horses. She grabbed some fresh grass, flattened out her hand just like I have taught her and fed Dakota.



Of course I made a huge deal out of her showing them 'just how to do it the right way' She was pleased with herself.







Can you believe just how precious these babes are? Look at the monkey mittens! I swear, I could just eat 'em up (like Abby says).







Let's face it folks



Does it get any better than this?

The day after Christmas aka to me as Christmas Day part 1

I have so many things to share with you guys. Some text but mostly some of the most precious pictures I think my Cannon has ever taken. I don't have them all uploaded to my flickr due to being too busy play/changing/feeding and just generally loving my granddaughters that are still at my house.

I have had to work this week but I sure have had some kind of fun when I get home! In the meantime here are some pictures taken before the presents were opened.

Shall I start with my precious? Oh yes, I think so. Besides, Amy and her family had not arrived yet.





This is Greg, Steph's boyfriend. He always has his tounge out. We just try to not talk about it.



Just kidding Greg. You're a pretty good guy.....................I guess.

Who invited this dork? Oh, sorry, that is my Christmas present.......Ryan.



Then it happened. They got here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!





Hey Ryan....why don't you move your behind over?



Awwwwwwwww cousin Abby giving cousin Auby a kiss!



Amy and Jeremy with Mia and I think that is Leah! The babies had matching outfits on in no time so it was hard to tell them apart.







Look at this handsome devil.



Someday he will have a family of his own. In the meantime he really enjoys his neices.

My precious Emmeline



Ryan holding Emmeline and Beth holding Leah. Oh my! They are only 3 weeks to the day apart.



Amy is holding Mia in this one. I swear, I don't think Steph took her coat off all day long. Silly girl



My wonderful, better than we could have ever dreamed of, son-in-law Jeremy holding Aubriella.



Santa, er I mean Joe, holding Emmeline. Such a doll!



Busy mingling and loving continued!





Patty is introducing herself to Aubriella.



The day would not be complete at Trailboss' house without a horsie ride!





Why lookie there. Greg has his tounge under control. hee hee. Abby really likes Greg, can you tell?



Cut back to the horsie rides





Hello my precious darlings. I swear I could eat you up! Aubriella on the left and Mia on the right.



Hello my precious!



Wow! Look at all of the loot under the Christmas tree!



Patty was SUCH a good girl! We thought we were going to have to crate her quite a bit but she did so well. Not bad for a 4 month old pup.



Ryan caught Greg playing with Woody from Toy Story.









How did I ever get so lucky to have such a wonderful family?



How did I ever get so lucky to have my son and his stepday together again?



I don't think I will dwell on how I got so lucky and blessed at the same time. I am just going to love every second of it!

Part 2 to come soon.
