Package From Santa

Presley got a mysterious green package in the mail today from “Santa”.  She was really excited!  When she opened it, she realized that Santa had sent her the exact same shirt she was wearing!  Presley knew that Santa had to know she already had that shirt, so she figured out that it must have been Aunt Tina.  She really enjoyed the Santa gummy snack! Thanks Santa Tina!

O Christmas Tree

This is our Christmas tree.  I love real trees, but we opted for an artificial tree this year. I wondered if a tree would even fit, so I wanted to be able to manipulate it into a corner if I needed to. It fits, and Presley thinks it is fabulous.  Here it is…

Two for One

Presley and I had a first yesterday- our first visit to the doctor together.  Presley has had congestion for a while now, and she woke up with fever and a yucky cough. I pulled a muscle in my back.  Nick loaded us up and took us both to the doctor.  The clinic we went to is just a walk-in clinic, so we loaded up our Christmas books to keep us busy! Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer is Presley’s favorite, and I love How Santa Got His Job!

Twinkies

Anytime I take Presley anywhere people say, “She looks just like her daddy.” I do think that they do share some similarities, but I think she looks just like her mommy (and I will post a pic sans makeup to prove it). I knew you would agree.DSC_0565DSC_0569

Happy Thanksgiving

We had a great Thanksgiving break, and hate that it is over! We spent Wednesday at home, went to Sheridan Thursday, went to Magazine Friday (we lost), went to Bryant Saturday, and back home today! It is a tradition at the Pope family table to tell what you are thankful for on Thanksgiving, but I wasn’t there so here it is… I am thankful for my wonderful husband and my beautiful daughter, I am thankful that Presley has two sets of grandparents that love her like crazy and she loves them even more, I am thankful that my grandparents are counting the days until they get to see their great-granddaughter again, I am thankful that Nick and I both have good jobs and a house to live in and plenty to eat, and I am thankful that we are members of a great church, and I am most thankful for my God that loves me!
