Pre-Christmas Weekend



The weekend before Christmas was a full one.  It started out with my work Christmas party at the Mad Boar.  It was the first time we have been there in a really long time & it did not disappoint.  The food was SO good, I can't wait to go back!
Saturday morning, we went to Jack's 2nd birthday party.  It was a barnyard theme complete with a petting zoo, pony rides and a bounce house.  All the fun that toddlers could ask for, right?!  Mallory was in heaven.




How awesome is that cake?  It tasted really good too :)


I guess Mallory decided to take a break from partying??

Jack was anxiously awaiting to get some cake (& so was I).

Later that night, we had Christmas with Patrick's dads family at his Uncle's house.  They always have chitlins and krout.  (I have no idea if either of those foods are spelled correctly?)  I will have to take pictures next year.
The next day, Mema, Pepaw and Aunt Whitney came to visit us to celebrate Christmas with them.

She LOVES this horse.

Then, that night we had our church Christmas play where Mallory participated for the first time as an angel.  She was dead set against putting the costume on until the very last minute.  I was desperately trying to convince her to put it on and she finally gave in and was a trooper.  She ended up doing really good!

'Mary' told me that the angel held onto her hand the entire time.  I guess she did have a little stage fright but you couldn't tell from the audience.
