Our Christmas Visitors

We were blessed to have some very special Christmas visitors from Maryland. Our cousins, the "M" family !

*

While they were here in Tennessee, we had a grand time ... we baked cookies and then decorated them, we played card games, rode bikes, played with the "kittys" outside, went for walks, were taken on tractor rides, and more.

*

Thank you for coming to visit M family !! We are already missing you and are looking forward to your visit this summer !

Everyone was hard at work.

Dumma and GranMickey ... or Aunt B and Uncle M ... depending on whether a Beck or an "M".

Miss A, very pleased with her Make-up Kit.

Later, she and Little Miss M put on make up

... lots of it ... and each little lady looked ADORABLE

with their pink noses and purple eye lids.
