Christmas was an especially fun time this year with Kate! She took every experience in and enjoyed every minute. Christmas "McKethan" style starts out with the McKethan Family Christmas party. This year it was hosted at Aunt Jo Ann and Uncle Johnny's house. We ate, visited with family, and had our traditional white elephant gift exchange. 
Finally, we got a family picture with our wiggle worm!
This picture is for NuNu of her future ballerina.
This is as close as we got to Santa....Kate was so excited when he walked in the door, but she liked him best from afar! :)
Kate has really started to LOVE her Uncle Brian!
Papa Hollis just thinks she hung the moon!
Kate and Papa Boone 
This wagon is very special. It was actually Keith's when he was a boy. Papa Boone has worked very hard to refinish it. It looks brand new! Kate LOVES it!!
And....the doll buggy! This little girl probably walked 10 miles around the house pushing this buggy. She would walk by and say "Bye Mama, Bye Daddy, Bye NuNu, Bye Papa" every time she passed us! She is also very particular about what goes in the doll buggy. Too funny!
Aunt Betty taught Kate how to say "cheese". She will say it now when we take her picture. :)
Papa Hollis and all his grandchildren and great grandchildren...very special picture.
Silly Uncle Brian! It is no wonder she is starting to LOVE him so much!
Little present thief!

Kate and Papa BooneNow, on to Christmas Day at Papa Boone and NuNu's house. We had a blast watching Kate open her presents. No paper and boxes this year...she LOVED all the toys! Her favorites were definitely her doll, doll buggy, and red wagon.

**Stay tuned...for Christmas "Hudson" style, where we attended the Christmas Eve service at church, started a new tradition of going to Ice at the Gaylord, and had family fun on Christmas Eve! ...as soon as I get the pictures from Grammy (hint hint!)
