Christmas was a glorious time in the Wells house. Christmas has always been a fun and joyous time but experiencing it this year through the eyes of a child was amazing!
It's crazy to think how much life has changed since this time last year!
 |
| Here is Blakely (and me) last year at Christmas time and Blakely this year! |
Here are some pictures highlighting our life during this first season of advent with Blakely.
Hanging of the Greens and All Church Potluck that kicked off our Advent celebration.

| Blakely spent a lot of time with Nana this evening as mommy and her friend Jolene are in charge of this event and were very busy! |

Blakely as Baby JESUS
 |
| Every year our church has the children of the church dress up to reinact the Manger Scene and they hang the pictures in the sanctuary foywer. Miss Blakely was asked to play the part of Baby Jesus. Needless to say this canvas will be hung in our house every advent season! |

Christmas Morning at Home.
We woke up at our house Christmas morning and spent the first few moments together, just our small little family.

Christmas at Nana's
After we opened presents at home we got ready and headed to Shawnee to eat breakfast and spend time with Nana, Papa and Uncle Ronnie. We had our tradional Ebelskievers (Danish Pancake Balls) and exchanged gifts.
 |
| more interested in the packaging than the actual gift. |
 |
| Papa got Blakely her first KU basketball. No Pressure, Beemer ;) ROCK CHALK! |
 |
| Her Bib says "Who needs Santa, I have Grandma" This Christmas proved that saying true! |
 |
| Everything goes straight to the mouth! |
 |
| Blakely opening her new buddy Violet. |
Christmas Evening at Home
We went home after breakfast so Blakely could nap in her own bed. That afternoon Noah's parents and sister came in town and we were able to celebrate Christmas evening with Nana, Papa, Uncle Ronnie, Uncle Eric, Soon to be Aunt Kaitlyn, AND Grandma and Grandpa Wells and Tia. It was so much fun and Blakely was SPOILED!
 |
| She is now a pro at opening gifts |
 |
| I know she is thinking "I want to put this in my mouth!" |
 |
| Blakely got her first set of Prince and Princess from Gma and Gpa Wells. Little People's version of Jasmine and Alladdin. Momma the EC Teacher loves her some Little People Toys! |
 |
| Fancy hat from Tia that she got on her semester abroad at the Famous WIMBLEDON Tennis Tournament. |
 |
| Where did Blakely go? |
