Christmas '09

Well...this is a long time coming--a VERY busy beginning to 2010!

Flash back to the end of December...

My little angel posed for our Christmas cards
(for only about 10 minutes)



We headed North for actual Christmas. We really enjoyed ourselves and I swear that Carson put on a few pounds along with the rest of us. He really began to develop his personality and we experienced his first smile. The first one ever was coaxed from Daddy...and below is a shot of a smile that happened all on it's own, for Grandma Johnson!





Santa Carson made an appearance on Christmas Eve for the Johnsons...

Christmas Day brought our little (grown) family together:

Tony, Julie, Carson, Dad, Mom, Brett, & Ashley

The Pates



Grandma Johnson and her sweet boy

Men and their naps...priceless!

Carson loves his Grandpa.

Carson got to experience his first snow!!

(I think he slept through most of the outside experience...)

Snow angel!!

(But really he just slept)

And so....we headed home to Texas. Another wonderful and VERY memorable Christmas!
