The Lucy Family

The Lucy Family

Sunday, January 4, 2015

the week of christmas 2015.

and yet another month gone without a post.  i'll do a december picture post soon (maybe).

we have had a wonderful christmas break.  sk heads back to school tomorrow and hayes goes on tuesday.  looking forward to getting back into routine but i surely have enjoyed having my little lucy family altogether for the past couple of weeks.  we've really enjoyed having trey around so much!

the weekend before christmas, we traveled to folkston to celebrate with my family.
we all spent friday and saturday night with mimi & papa.  the lucys stayed sunday night as well.  so….sk had fun but none of my pics reflect that.  her lips were really chapped which apparently means no smiling for pictures.  seriously irritating.
"i just can't smile….it hurts too bad." 

these 2 funny girls will cooperate for aunt katie!
crazy haysie!
all 4 girls road diamond on saturday…


we had christmas lunch over at my mom's sister's house.  all the little cousins enjoyed playing together and exchanging their gifts.
this is not an easy task.  back row…reagan & sarah kate (still obviously suffering from the chapped lips).  front row…that could be lucas or gabriel - i can't tell them apart - ava, bryce, hayes, riley and the either lucas or gabriel.  i don't know if i'll ever be able to tell them apart.  

 goofy girls...


we came back to charleston the monday before christmas and spent the days leading up to christmas doing fun family things and just getting everything ready. 

on the 23rd, we went down to the charleston place hotel to see the model trains and to eat lunch at the cafe there.  we enjoyed starting some new lucy family traditions.

just a few nights of rubbing aquifer on those lips and all was healed.  taking pics is still painful for the most part….just not physically painful for sk's lips.

followed by a trip to jeni's for some delicious ice-cream!

 it was our first time spending christmas at our home.  we have always been down in folkston but thought it would be a good time to start making our own family traditions here in mt. pleasant.  my parents came here christmas eve and stayed until around lunch on christmas day.  sarah kate was an "angel" in the 4pm family service so we all went to that.  it was very cute & very crowded!  our church has a 3 and 4 pm family service.  then a 6, 8, and 11 pm more traditional candlelight service with scripture and hymns.
