Christmas 2009

Like most of you we had a busy and fun Christmas with the Celebration of the Season, programs, family gatherings, and the engagement of my brother & his girlfriend, I haven't had time to post.

Here is what we have been up too:

• Celebrating the Christ birth at our Church's Christmas. Grace after the program.

• Enjoyed gift giving at our Babysitters house, going to WalMart, and special supper for the girls at Mr. Gattis on Tuesday, then a mean GI bug attacked our two lil princesses on Tuesday night (Grace) and Wednesday afternoon (Iz).
• Thursday morning and afternoon was spent cooking for Christmas Eve dinner at my parent's house. Then it was time to head out and enjoy supper, gift giving, and laughter with my family

The grandkids anxiously waiting for gift giving

Grace's Surprise!!!Izabelle and all her new baby & Baby stuff. O' and she named the baby, Baby Braxton.

• Celebration continued thru Christmas Morning with some gift giving at home, then to Memaw and Papaw's for breakfast, gift giving, and just some good family time.

Iz and B checking each others' gifts. These two lil girlies wanted what they other one got, even though it was the same thing. They would ask each other 'you trade'. Too Cute!!!

• We had lunch and fellowship with the Matt's family and then we headed to the Harper's Christmas gathering. Then it was back to Memaw and Papaw's for more gathering. Their were cards to play, movies to watch, and some good ole razzing. The girls ended up playing Dutch Blitz. I love this game, but far from being as good as Greta and Jennifer. But one day I will, I am sooo buying this card game and practicing until next Christmas. Watch out girls!!;) I am going to be above the negative mark (yay, I'm that bad).

We have been beyond blessed with wonderful family & friends and we hope that everyone had a Blessed Christmas as well.

This is going to be another busy week, with New Year's on Thursday and a Surprise Party on Friday, we are ready to get back to some kind of normalcy, but love being with all the company and the celebrations.

I hope everyone has a wonderful New Year.

Happy New Year.

Until Next Year...

God Bless
