We have had such a busy Holiday season that I have had ZERO time to update. We have now moved to Pensacola, FL and are STILL trying to set up everything in the new house, but I have so many pictures to put up I had to do a little catch-up session. We had family in for the Holidays. Papa, Gigi and Jordan were are at our house, and MaBevy and Opa were also in town and stayed at Grandmama's house. We went to Folly Beach for a few days to enjoy a little get away, but the weather was bad and the house was small so we only stayed about 4 days until we went back to Summerville. After that EVERYONE got sick, so we really did not do too much during the Holidays.
Then the family left on the 26th and we immediately started packing up. We left Summerville on the 31st (after much help from friends and family) and went to Atlanta to visit Kaitlyn and Jake for the New Year. Then we drove to Pensacola on the 2nd. We are renting a house in the North Hill District of Pensacola. The house was built in 1909, but has been renovated over the last 10 years. The house is interesting, but has some INTERESTING challenges because it is so old! Anyway--more on that later, but here are some pictures of the last month before we moved. I will get pictures of Pensacola and the house, but right now we are still in set-up mode and it's a MESS! Thankfully it is roomy and has a spare bedroom so feel free to come visit. We're only 5 minutes from the beautiful beaches:)!
We were so lucky to spend sometime with them all week.

Waiting for the Christmas parade to start--what a windy, nasty day!

Decorating Josie's Christmas tree after the parade.
The girls had a blast.
Riding the carousel at the Festival of Lights.
We told Josie to put her hands up for the ride--she was ready for a thrill.
Eating our s'mores in the FREEZING cold.
The little elves got to play in the mushrooms.
Zoe and I went to the Aquarium to see Albie--the albino alligator. She wasn't a huge fan.

We got to listen to the "Elf" (the headmaster at Jocelyn's school) read the children Christmas stories--that was a special treat.

We had a party at Redeemer, and guess who showed up!

Santa! We got to see him a LOT this year!
We bounced at the Christmas Farmer's Market.

And saw the biggest Santa I have ever seen! Zoe was not intimidated in the least!

We made Reindeer food and cookies for Santa.
MaBevy and Opa came to the beach to see us.

Daddy and Zoe played at the Beach when it was finally warm enough to even go outside.

We opened up a ton of presents on Christmas morning.
And got A LOT of princess stuff!

Then Papa took Zoe to see "Tangled" again--what a special treat.
And then we had dinner at Grandmama's house and opened even more presents.

Finally we had to say goodbye to Gigi, Papa and Jordan.

But we will see them again soon.
More pictures of our new house coming soon. We miss Charleston and all of our friends already, but we will hopefully be back to South Carolina soon.
