It was Ethan's first Christmas, very special,

You tortured that poor baby in the cold. :) Just kidding. I would have done exactly the same thing. Good job Papaw!
Our yard still looks just about like yours. Brrr!! John B. had to bring over his 4 wheel drive truck over to pull my sister in law out of the neighborhood the other day. Funny girl was ready to go to a warmer place.
That is a lot of snow! Ethan is so cute in his little outfit!
Happy New Year!

Awwwww! Ethan is adorable! I know you had a blast with this little one -- my favorite pic, I think, is the one of him and his Pawpaw. (Aren't our men just precious with those grandbabies!)
Thanks for joining me over at Texas Preacher Woman. I look forward to sharing a cup of coffee with you there.
Grins!
