Christmas with the Bartley's

After church on Sunday we hit the road for Arkansas. Reagan was a perfect traveler and slept most of the way. (We later learned that she was a little sick and that might have been why she slept so good!) We took two good stops and made it there in about 12 hours. We had a great time and enjoyed spending time with my mom, dad, and sister. My brother is stationed in California and he didn't get off for Christmas. We missed him but we hope to see him soon.
Reagan really hit it off with Laura, they became fast friends. Laura let her open one of her gifts early and she and mom had fun letting Reagan knock over all the blocks.
It has been a Christmas tradition of ours to have a Christmas Eve "party". We make everyones favorite appetizers and desserts then watch a movie and play games.

On Christmas morning we waited until Reagan woke up and then we got to open presents. Reagan enjoyed opening the first two and then found other things to get into. It was an Elmo Christmas. She got lots of Elmo toys to play with from Nana.
Poppy made Reagan a special Mickey Mouse pancake for breakfast.
Taking a break from all the excitement.

And she's out! What a great Christmas.
