Sick, Sick, Sick

We went to Cass’ house this weekend to celebrate Christmas since the Powell family was in Texas durning the holidays.  Braydon had a great time with his Grandma!  She got him a very cute firetruck themed rocking chair!

Christmas in Texas

We spent Christmas in Texas this year and it was so wonderful!!!!  It was Braydon’s first Christmas which made it the most special of them all.  I think he had a great time seeing his grandparents, aunts and uncles again!
