Hoping Everyone Had a Fabulous Christmas

 

I know I haven’t posted in a while which is not surprise.  It seems I just feel like my life is boring and nothing really interesting to blog about!  That is so far from the truth!!! I have 3 grandbabies that I have everyday of the week so therefore my life is FAR from boring!! We have a lot of fun, crazy days around here and it just seems like I have bloggers block (if that’s even a saying/word).

So I will start with the grandbabies visit with Santa in a picture!!

So that’s how that went!! Ha! I’m sure we aren’t the first to have 3 different reactions from 3 different kiddos trying to sit on Santa’s lap at the same time!! It was definitely a rushed experience since there was a line a mile long so we weren’t able to really take the time to situate the kids like we would have liked.  But this will definitely be a great picture to look back on years from now.

We started our Christmas celebration on Christmas Eve by going to the candlelight service at church and then heading over to my SIL’s house to have some finger foods and exchange gifts.  We draw names and this is the second year we have done this and it is definitely less stressful this way.  I definitely missed my family in Florida but was able to get some pictures from my nieces Facebook.  All the pictures from our Christmas are on my MIL’s camera so I don’t have them loaded yet to post.

We ended up having a white Christmas which was a first since we moved to TN 14 years ago so I really enjoyed it.  On Christmas day I baked a ham and made a side and the girls brought a side and we enjoyed a traditional dinner and just chilled out the rest of the day.

On Sunday Lee had to work so I just kind of chilled out until he got home then we went to see Tuff and Ada so they could show us all their toys that Santa brought them.  Tuff was pretty excited and he was to happy to show us all his presents and Ada was glad to see MeMe and PaPa come visit.  After picking up some McDonald’s and heading home we watched a little TV and I finished a book I have been reading and then it was off to bed.

So I will leave you with a few random pictures of my sweet grandbabies.  Hope everyone has a blessed week and a very Happy New Year!!

OH.MY.GOODNESS!!! My daughter Ashley bought these for me last night and she said, “you probably won’t even like them”.  Oh boy was she wrong!! I have eaten half the bag already!!  I saw these on the end of an isle at Wally World and this lady comes by and puts 2 or 3 bags in her buggy and I said they must be good.  She says “oh you won’t be able to eat just one and you can only get them this time of year.”   So I snagged me a bag and can’t stop popping 1 or 2 or 3….in my mouth!! They are soooo smooth and have tiny little pieces of peppermint  mixed with white chocolate!! Yummo is all I have to say!
