We are having the after Christmas Blues!


Merry Christmas to all!!!! Happy New Year too!!!!
We are all sitting here after a wonderful, fun filled visit from our Parents in New Jersey and Sister and Brother-in-law from New York, missing them all. It was so much fun having the house full at Christmas time and always having something to do. The kids will suffer the most. They started their day off with climbing into bed with their Mamie (for the girls) then sitting on the couch cuddling with Pap Pop, jumping on Uncle Jon's shoulders, and getting pampered by Aunt Marissa. It was very nice sharing the holiday together. They are all on their way home or home now and life here is slowly creeping back to normal. I am taking down the Christmas tree and all the decorations around the house. Getting everything down is not as much fun and getting it out I have to say.

The entire family went to My Ma Maw's for Christmas Eve Lunch, thank goodness it was nice outside because we had 36 people there and her place is tiny. Everyone had a great time there eating, playing football, watching football, and spending time chatting. Did I mention eating?



We had Granny and Grandaddy, Aunt Brooke and Uncle Curtis( they had to leave to go to their third but not final destination of the day after opening gifts) here for Christmas day they came for brunch we all opened presents then they spent the rest of the day playing with the children's gifts with them. Julia even got a mani pedi from Granny and Mamie.....What a treat!!!
