We had a great time seeing friends and family at various Christmas parties, dinners and events, and Mary Grace definitely got spoiled by having something special to do every night. She got such a kick out of dressing up and going out on the town.
We celebrated Christmas morning at our house, just the three of us, before driving down to Charleston to have Christmas dinner. Molly and I stayed up late on Christmas Eve in order to make sure Santa Claus found his way to our house without any problems. Believe it or not, we actually had to wake Mary Grace the next morning because she was so exhausted from all of the week's festivities. I bet it’s the last time we have to do that on a Christmas morning…

Mary Grace is very serious about her tea parties. She will insist that you have your napkin on your lap.
