Holiday Hooplah! Violet's First Christmas!

It has been a crazy couple of weeks for the Ward family. Sorry we are just getting to the Christmas photos, but better late than never! On the 23rd, we met Santa Clause! Violet wasn't too impressed but was good the whole time. We missed one Christmas because of an ear infection (Vi's first) but had a wonderful Christmas Eve at Grammie and Popi's, Christmas Day relaxing at our home and an after-Christmas "Christmas" at other Grammy and Papa George's in Hot Springs. It was so wonderful to share such a fabulous holiday with our little sweetie. She is cooing, laughing, gabbing, rolling over and having fun in her new door bouncer/jumper. Violet is our best gift of all!

Waiting for the big Santa debut.

Hmmm...Violet is not that impressed with the man in red.
