Have yourself a very Nashville Christmas

Nannie had such a good time!
We wore her out, but we had a blast with her!
I am so thankful she went with us.
Sweet Hadlie checking out the lights outside...
and licking the window!?!?!?

Ellie being goofy
Nannie and I braved the cold and went outside to see the front entrance.
We did not, however, ride the carriage in the freezing cold!
This is one of my favorites of the girls together - I especially like this one of Ellie!!
All of us -
this lady started taking pictures of our girls, so we asked her to take one of all of us together. We let the girls get down and run and play and they had a blast!! We were all laughing at them and people we didn't know were coming up and taking pictures of them!!
This is one of my faovrite pictures of Nannie ever!
She loves flowers and we had never seen miniature poinsettias before.
This one is for mom. Didn't turn out exactly like I wanted, but it's still pretty cute.
They were sitting in front of one of the poinsettia trees.
Another one in front of the poinsettia tree.
Hadlie is very laid back, which is why she's looking right at the camera in this one. Ellie is a mama to everyone, so she was making sure Hadlie wasn't going to fall and making sure she was happy and Ava is just happy and silly and so darn cute -
this picture shows their personalities perfectly!
My favorite of Ava by herself!
Going to see Tishie - this was taken at our hotel.
The outlet mall has the cutest train - we rode it once -
Ellie taught Ava how to say choo choo!
Ellie, Hadlie, and Ava waiting to talk to Santa.

We went with Jeff this week to Nashville - he had to go for work, so we decided to go with him and visit with some friends. Then, my aunt Tishie had to go to the hospital and my mom and dad were going to be out of town (my Dad got a cruise for meeting a goal at work!!). Anyway, I invited Nannie to go with us, thinking she could stay with Tishie as much as she wanted, but Tishie got to go home much earlier than expected and is doing much better!! So, Nannie got to stay with us, which was so nice. I loved having her company (I used to be attached to my Nannie like crazy!!) and she was such a big help with the kids! We all had such a good time. We also got to visit with Brad, Julie, and Hadlie, our friends from when we were first married.

Man, I'm missing Nashville. We haven't been since March! But we are going for Christmas this year! And we'll be making a stop by the Opryland Hotel, of course! Love your pics!!! Your Nannie looks great, as always, and I can't believe how much the girls are growing!
