Merry Christmas!

We went to Centre for Christmas...it was awesome!  We left on Thursday after meeting David at work for lunch.  His Shop Boss Dan cooked a pig on the grill, which Dave went late at night to help him start, and it was yummy.  Marlee did so good with the new environment and all the people there.  We left for Alabama around noonish and spent the first night with the Sanfords, Jon and April were there for dinner.  My family from New Orleans came over to visit along with my sister, brother, and dad since they had just gotten in town for the holidays. 

On Christmas Eve day we went to the shooting range like last year and brought Cousins Kelly, Andrew, Lauren and Uncle Joel with us while Mom watched Marlee.  But we were there less than an hour b/c some sherriffs came to shoot and we got worried that they would ask for our license, which we didn't have, so we left.  We had dinner at the grandparents house on Christmas Eve and did presents with the Carpenters, then spent the night at my parents' house. 

Christmas morning was so cool to experience with a child...even though she doesn't get it yet and couldn't open her presents, but she definitely got spoiled with gifts!  Glad my sister was in town too!  Christmas day was also Beth's b'day, so we went back to do Christmas with them and her b'day before going over to Sissy's for Christmas dinner with the Roberts/Formby's.  Natalie and Marlee exchanged gifts...crazy to think Marlee will be up and running around next year.

There was many a good meals and lots of picturesque moments.  The best picture moment was waking up to a WHITE CHRISTMAS...yes, it snowed several inches in Centre, Alabama on Christmas morning/day.  It was magical, and I could just imagine the excitement of many children that morning!

Uncle Jon and Aunt April have been here visiting for a few days back in Nashville as well before they go to Cinci for New Years.  We've watched some movies and made some good food.  Glad they got to come visit since we didn't get to stay in Centre very long this year. 

Now working on getting together with the Auburn girls this week...
