Christmas Numero Uno

Well this is a pretty late update but hopefully you'll enjoy hearing about it. The weekend of Dec. 16th Granddaddy (Jim) and Mema (Sarah) came up from Florida for a visit with us and Aunt Joni drove down from Clemson. We had a great weekend together visiting and hanging out. Saturday morning we had a Christmas breakfast with some of our local friends and it was nice to have family here for that too. Saturday nite the family went out for dinner which was my doing since I got a hankering for Oriental Chicken Salad. During this time I basically ruled where we went since my list of foods to eat only included about 10 items! Anyway, when we got back we had our gift exchange and had a general festive time. Katie Jo loved the tea set she got from her Grandparents and she also got an adorable outfit. The old folks got gifts too but none of them made noise or played music so their not worth talking about! It was a good time and we were sad to see them go. Joni stayed on till Monday and Aunt Mickey, Uncle Pepper and cousin Nathan stopped by on their way back to Florida. Nathan was only home for a short period before he had to head back to Japan to continue his service with the Marines so this was a special treat indeed. It was a great holiday weekend with lots of family to share it with.
