Bartlett Christmas Part 1

 We went up to spend the weekend with NaNa and PaPa and to have Christmas at their house.  We always have such a fun weekend!!  We got there on Friday night and NaNa had a HUGE dinner fixed for everyone.  We had roast, potatoes & carrots, mac & cheese, pinto beans, rolls, and LOTS of dessert.  My boys think NaNa makes the best roast ever!!  Trisha and Malory were there and the boys had a blast playing.

The next day NaNa, Trisha, and I went shopping in Fayetteville.  We found a few bargains and had a good time!  Thanks to Travis for being super dad/uncle and staying home with all of the kids!

That night we got ready to go to Monte Ne chicken for our annual Christmas fried chicken!!!  We all look forward to this meal all year!

A few pics before we left...

Ev and me!

 The cousins!

 My sweetie:)

 Beau being Beau:)  He insisted on crazy hair like Ev.

 I'm telling you, if you have never been to Monte Ne chicken, you are missing out on one of life's greatest pleasures!!  The best family style fried chicken meal I've ever had!!!

 View from the other end of the table...

 Beau LOVED the bean soup.  Obviously.

 After we ate we headed to the Fayetteville square to look at lights.  Nana and her grand babies!!  (It was too cold for PaPa, so we dropped him off at home:).

 Beau rode his first "horsey" and LOVED it!!!  His name was Alex and he has talked about him non-stop ever since!

 SO cute!!

 He had to pet another pony after he rode Alex.

We took some fun pictures with the lights.

 Me and my boys!

 Sweet Beau Beau and I:)

 Evan and Malory rode a camel while Beau was riding Alex, so I don't have a picture, but they loved it!

A few more family pics before we opened presents!

 Always a clown in every pic:)
