It's a Looney, Cleek, Smith, Huff, Summerford Family Christmas

The weekend before Christmas we traveled to West Memphis for Christmas with my family. My brother, Brandon, came in from Kentucky. We all decided to celebrate Christmas early because he was able to come, so, Mommie Cica, Uncle Todd, NeNe, and Uncle Alvin drove in from Hot Springs to join us all.

Friday night on the way into WM...we decided to stop at Bass Pro Shop for some last minute shopping and for Miles to see Santa.


Miles wasn't afraid of Santa at all.


In order to make sure Miles got the attention all on him, Friday night Miles opened his presents from Honey, JoPa, and Uncle Joe. He received tons of toys and a few clothes.



Miles liked taking off bows more than unwrapping gifts...


He got an Elmo chair, blocks, clothes, a cell phone...


...and a Sesame Street House just like the one I had as a kid.


Even though I received plenty of presents...this little blessing is the best gift of all!


Then, Saturday, the Huff's and Smith's came in town for an old fashioned crazy Christmas at Meemaws--equipped with present exchange, turkey and dressing, sleepy Papaw and a game of phase 10. Miles racked up at Meemaws too. (I don't know how we got home with all of his loot along with everything Matt and I got. The truck was packed to the gills.)



Miles had fun opening presents and playing in the wrapping paper.


And the "big kids" had fun playing Phase 10..which took until 2:00 AM!!

We planned on hanging out with Honey on Sunday, but she came down with a case of the stomach bug. So, we ventured over to Mary's for some fun with the Summerfords. And boy was it a fun time....Miles and Ava Kate are just 5 months apart so it is entertaining to see them together now. Ava decided to try and share her Ritz crackers with Miles...here's some of the action:



Needless to say...both of these kids LOVE their Ritz crackers! When we left Mary's house we decided last minute and very late to head on back to Jackson. Honey was very sick and we didn't want Miles or anyone else to catch whatever she had (MORE ON THAT LATER). Miles was exhausted...so much so that he fell asleep in my arms while playing with Joe's keys.




More to come from our first Christmas/New Year with Miles! Stay tuned.
