Christmas 2013

Another Christmas in the books for the Neal family and Santa was very good to us. It was our first Christmas in our new home and it was filled with family and making lots of new memories here. Our Elf on a Shelf, Bam Bam, came back to visit us this year and had fun finding new hiding places here too. Mamaw and Papaw came for an early Christmas and got to watch Marissa at her first meet of the season (hence the leotard in the Christmas photos...although that's what she usually is wearing anyway). We had a great visit with them. Then on Christmas Eve Nana and Poppy arrived to celebrate with us and we had so much fun spending time with them too. The kids are so lucky to have such wonderful grandparents who love them so much (and I don't think they mind all of the wonderful gifts from them either). I don't think I'm going to commit to a 365 blog this year but do plan to get back to blogging regularly and taking more personal photos. Probably a lot in the winter and then less once I get busy with work again in the spring, but we will see what happens. I'm starting to get more into Instagram too and might try a 365 on there. Feel free to follow me (or whatever you do on instagram)...hmneal74
