We spent Christmas this year with Bryan's family in Vicksburg. We had a nice visit with everyone and enjoyed the company of family.
The fun started on Christmas Eve with a trip down to Lake Bruin to see Les and his family. Les is a friend of Bryan's from Baton Rouge. They met one summer when Bryan was working down there. He and his family are SO nice (even though they had an LSU decorated Christmas tree!) We just could not be so close to them without making a stop by.
Then, we headed to Allyson and Syd's house for a visit with their 3 children.
Banks really enjoyed all of their cool toys.
Sweet cousin Andrew had just celebrated his first birthday on Dec 20th.
Sarah Beth, Andrew, Banks, and Sophie really had a great time playing!
This is the "Johnston Family toy piano" and boy oh boy did Banks really bang it out on the thing. I hope it survived!
Banks enjoyed pretending to drive the car with Daddy while we waited for the family at the cemetery.
We all went to Crawford Street United Methodist for Christmas Eve service. Banks enjoyed the service from the Narthex (anyone surprised??)! Then we all headed over to Jennifer Lynne and Stephen's house for dinner and fun.
Weejie had 4 of his 5 there. Ricky and Brooke came the day after Christmas.
When we got home, we had to leave some cookies out for Santa. Thank you Leigh Anne for the adorable plate.
Santa Came to Vicksburg!!!!
Is all of this for me???? Wow!
Too much fun on my Thomas the Train riding toy.
Oh yeah! I got this real John Deere tractor from Weejie and SuSu! It is so cool!!!!
Now that I am a Johnston, Santa has to "wrap" some of the toys.
We enjoyed a yummy lunch of filets, baked potatoes, and salad.
Jennifer Lynne and Stephen (and baby girl)
It is a Johnston tradition to start a fire and burn the wrapping paper.
Banks was mesmerized by the fire.
Last but not least, Michael with his pups. Max, Sophie, and Big Girl.
