O'Kelly Family Christmas

We celebrated Christmas with my mom's side of the family the Sunday before Christmas at my aunt and uncle's house in Columbia. We started getting together before Christmas a few years ago and it is SO much more enjoyable than trying to cram it in on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day. No one is in a rush, no one has anywhere else to be, and no one is stuffed full of turkey from someone else's house yet! The children get to open gifts and we eat until we can't see straight...that's what everybody does, right?!? ha!
Unfortunately this year we were short 2 family members from the Wilkes clan. Cambell woke up with strep throat that morning so he and Chad had to stay home. He was so disappointed and I hated it for him, but we didn't need to share strep throat with the family for Christmas! We left in time for him to open his gifts when we got home and that made all the difference for him! He was a good sport and, most importantly, was feeling better within 24 hours of antibiotics!



Addie Grace and her baby, who looks to be about 4 months old! I promise you could buckle this one up in a car seat and fool someone with her being real!

Sa-Sa and uncle Roy gave all 3 of the kids a wash-tar! They were thrilled!
