While some people were hitting the stores for the day after Christmas sales, we continued to celebrate Christmas with family!! We got up this morning and headed to Grandpa Dave and Grandma Donna's house in our p.j.'s for the morning and afternoon. It was great! Everyone was there, including Irie!! I've been really missing him and I was super excited for Myla to meet him. She loved him, by the way. She wasn't scared at all. In fact, we had to make sure she didn't go get him all the time because she was that impressed with him. That is something she has in common with her big sis!!!
We had a great breakfast (that included my favorite...cinnamon rolls) and we opened stockings and presents. We lounged around and had a good ol' time. I got a guitar as one of my gifts and so I spent much of my time writing and singing songs. I even performed a couple!
Before we knew it we were heading back to Muncie so Myla could get a short nap and we could head to Pa and Grandma's place! Me and Myla changed pj's (we changed into something a little cooler because Grandma keeps the heat set on Hawaii) and then we headed off for dinner and our last Christmas stop for 2011.
It was great! We ate a wonderful dinner (the adults ate roast while me and my cousins opted for some chicken nuggets) and we played in the play room (that now features a bigger ball pit) and then we opened presents! We were again blessed by many really cool things to bring home and play with, given to us by some people who love us very much! Then the grown ups talked some and tried to relax while Myla tried her hardest to get into the play room with the big kids and the big kids played until we were all nice and sweaty and tired!
This has been a really wonderful Christmas! I informed my parents it has been the best Christmas Ever!!! We have seen so much family and gotten to spend time with all of them! We have eaten some really great food! We've been given and we've given gifts to our loved ones! We have laughed and played until all 4 of us are just exhausted (but in a good way)!! It has been a BLAST!

Merry Christmas!
We will let the pictures do most of the talking today. It sure was a great Christmas day!! Santa came to see us, we went to church to celebrate Jesus' birthday and then we spent lots of time with lots of family!! We can't even begin to write how happy we are that our families are healthy and were able to get together today!! We saw Grandma and Pa, all of our Sorrell side of the family, and then all of our Filler family! There were lots of hugs and laughs, Myla did amazingly well on her very first Christmas day, we were given great gifts by family who loves us and were able to give gifts to some of our loved ones. There were so many highlights of the day that we couldn't even begin to tell you all of them! It was an absolutely fabulous day!
