Christmas Day!
Wow this holiday has been jam packed with fun, family and well honestly a little feuding with the kiddos. Really, we have had a great holiday, it all started Sunday afternoon when we got together with my side of the family and had lots of good food and fun, then it ended with a trip to the live nativity with my Grandmother who was absolutely thrilled to get to ride by her church who always hosts the live nativity. Christmas Eve, we went to Craig's family and had a lot of fun catching up with his family. Then we made another stop by the live nativity, this time getting out, the kids were thrilled and it was freezing. Then we came home and got in pj's and read the Christmas story, in the middle of the story Tessa breaks out in song singing "there was no room for him, there was no room for him there was no room for him" it was adorable. After, the story we sang all the Christmas songs we could think of and the kids went to bed to wait on Santa. Craig and I proceeded to watch Christmas Vacation, but both dozed off and didn't wake up until around midnight. This morning Emma and Isaiah woke up at 6:30 but we didn't actually get up until 7:30, they were pacing the floors ready to see what Santa brought. Everyone was happy, even Tessa although I think she had the most fun terrorizing everyone elses gifts, by 8:30 she had everyone of them upset trying to get their gifts. Then Dad came over, and we had breakfast, oh I forgot by the morning our heat had quit working and it was a very chilly morning, so Dad tried to work on the heat but no success so we had to call the very nice great guy that we rent from and he came straight over and fixed it in less than 10 minutes flat. Dad played with all the kids toys and then he left to go to my sister's house. Then we went to see Nanny, and came home and took a nice nap. After we woke up, we did the only sensible thing and that was eat, so we went to the Waffle house where everyone else in Rome was, it was fun and the food was delicious, we only go there once a year so it's becoming a tradition! So here are some pictures from this Wonderful Christmas.

Actually, your Christmas started on Friday night when Me and Jack came over and we opened Christmas Presents, and then you and Craig went shopping, and when you came home Craig, Mandi and Me (Mama) went to the Kitchen to make a Pound cake, Sorry I couldn't eat it, I just don't know what we did wrong with it, but I am glad that you made another one with whatever we left out. But we had a glorious time that night. And yes when you got home after we put the cake in the oven and started watching the Grinch, Craig fell asleep on the couch, when he was supposed to be fast forwarding through all of the commercials. Me and Jack had a great time, We have a great time every time we get to stay with the kids and see you and Craig, It is a really special time in my life. I love all of you. Thank you so much for the necklace I have got so many compliments on it, I wear it every where I go, and It has a very special meaning behind it that is the true meaning that I love more than anything all of you are great anytime you need me and Jack to babysit let us know we love it. Love to all of you Mama
