Christmas with the Horton Family

Christmas in Maggie Valley was awesome!  Evans came from Wofford and with Sid, Molly, Kara, Logan and brand-new baby Rachel only live 20 minutes away!

Kara loves to read and wanted to read to Connor

Just the beginning...

Connor got this microphone that plays Christmas music and you sing into it to the background music.  She hasn't put it down.  Really.  And if she realizes she doesn't have a audience she will gather everyone together to perform.

My new wallet!

Have you ever heard of "Evolution of Dance" on youtube? Well Kara can perform the whole thing.  She is musically and theatrically talented.

Microphone still in her hand...

 Molly, Rachel and me

All the December babies at the hospital received a knitted Santa hat that was made by a volunteer.

Probably one of Connor's favorite gifts so far... other then the the microphone, of course!

Meme reading to Connor one of Justin's Little Golden books from when he was a child.

Connor absolutely loves Evans.  And he loves her just the same.

Welcome, Ladies and Gentlemen! My name is Connor Ellory Horton...

We ate, enjoyed each other and our the kids and their craziness, opened presents from one another and got our hands on that precious baby girl.  We can't wait until Santa visits tonight!

Santa Claus...

 ... is coming to town!

Before we left for Maggie Valley, Connor received a letter from Santa.  The doorbell rang and POOF! a magical letter from Santa appeared.  We told her that Biff is probably who told him her address.  She loved receiving the letter.  We read it to her and reminded her that Santa wants her to be kind to her friends and also listen to all her teachers.  She said she would; we'll see!
