Christmas Blessings

We kicked off Christmas at Stone Mountain on 12-23 with my sister and her family. The kids had a blast on the train, loved the sky lift and thought the 4D Shrek movie was the bomb! That certainly got us in the spirit!

We spent Christmas Eve with Doug's family at his parents house. We got to watch baby Pierce (so cute) open his presents. Caroline and Tate followed their cousins Claire and Cole around for a good part of the night. Cole gives a mean typewriter and gave Tate quite a workout. Claire sat with me and Caroline and told us about being a senior in HS and getting accepted into Berry College. We're proud of Claire. She's a sweet girl and will do well.

Our family had the best day today. The kids were healthy and happy. Santa hooked them up and we enjoyed time with family and friends and "BCF's" (best cousin friends!LOL) They laughed and played, laughed more, played more. Their laughs were contagious. Couldn't help getting a little giddy myself. This was our first Christmas without my grandmother, Nanny. We sure do miss her. Mom surprised Trisha and me with videos she had put on DVD's of us growing up. Sniff, sniff. She presented them with a box of tissue. I blew through mine in less then 5 minutes. Caroline enjoyed watching me grow up and finally agrees that yes, she does look a little like me afterall! :-)

It was a wonderful Christmas making many new memories.

Goodnight and God bless!
