Santa Visit

December 23, 2009, Wednesday - Chad's work let out early today and so we headed to the mall with the kids to visit Santa. Hoping to get in a short line. Well after 1 hour and 10 minutes in line the kids were able to talk to Santa. Such a precious sight. They both sat on his lap and actually talked to him. They gave him their list and Santa told them at the end....don't forget to wish Jesus a Happy Birthday.

Thanksgiving 2009

November 25-29, 2009 - We headed to my aunt and uncle's in Weaverville on Wednesday to spend Thanksgiving with family. My mom and dad, grandma, aunts, uncles and cousins were there. We had a great time visiting, catching up with each other and eating yummy homemade food. There were 16 of us. Then Thursday afternoon we headed for Pigeon Forge, TN to spend some time at Dollywood again. The weather was great and we had fun seeing the Christmas shows and riding rides. I am so blessed by God for my family and friends and health. I hope all of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving also.
