Hanging out with Grandpa.

Christmas morning. My parent's living room was a mess!
Maddie's favorite Christmas present: a ball popper from Grandma and Grandpa McGee.
We had such a wonderful Christmas this year! It was so nice to be surrounded by family. It was a McGee/Nickels/Romano Family Christmas. Maddie loved being able to play with her aunt, uncle, grandma and grandpa. Maddie has been able to say "grandpa" for a lit bit now, but this weekend she really started saying "grandma" (it sounds more like "Nma"). My mom LOVED that!
Our weekend started out with a wonderful Christmas Eve service at my parents church. The whole family played a part, even my sister's hubby, Brandon, (or Uncle Brandon as we now call him) who took on babysitting duty while I was singing with Jason on stage. Maddie loves her Uncle Brandon! :) My mom and sister also did a beautiful duet. The service seemed filled with Joy and anticipation for the birthday of our Savior.
Christmas morning was crazy. I think that is the only way I can describe it. Toys and presents filled the living room. It was so much fun to see Maddie excited about her new toys. The rest of the day was filled with family fun and a delicious Christmas dinner complete with turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, sweet potatoes, stuffing, jello, rolls and pumpkin pie and mint chocolate chip cheesecake for dessert. Maddie learned a new word while we were there: "pie".
Sunday, we headed home after lunch, but first we stopped by my aunt and uncle's for a visit. It was so nice to see them. We made it to my grandparents around 7 (about 40 mins from home). We visited for a while and then headed home.
It was a tiring weekend, but a great one.
