Jonathan took me to the North Pole! Well, Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge really. We had fun looking around with no kids.
We even had a meal by the fire. It was excellent food!
Regan ran in her first 5K. It was a cold rainy morning, but they all did great in the Jingle Bell run!
Santa was there, too. He was supposed to be in a Santa chase after the race, but they decided it was to rainy, so he just talked to all the kids.
Emily and Regan crossing the finish line together. Fun memories.
Lauren was there cheering on Auntie Em. We needed some hot chocolate afterward.
We got home and found that they were setting up for a parade. The start line was just on the other side of our house. The kids had so much fun watching and got tons of candy just standing in the driveway.
We celebrated Christmas with Marsha and Judy. The kids had so much fun having them over and opening presents.
As you can see, Lauren and Katherine are right there when someone is opening a gift. They don't want to miss anything.
Benjamin got a Hot Wheels Track and has had a blast with it. He even has his sisters intrigued :)
Grandkids with Mamaw and Papaw
We went to Columbia, Tennessee, to visit Granddad and Mammy. I never knew this street was right down the street from where I grew up. So cool.
Hanging out at in the living room watching Granddad's big screen tv...lots of Christmas movies, Hallmark shows, singing-offs, and Disney Channel.
Little Bit decided that this was the best spot to sit because she could get her back scratched. Smart Girl :)
Granddad and Regan also got to celebrate their birthday together! Regan missed Granddad's birthday by 7 minutes. They technically get to celebrate on the same day when we are overseas because of the time difference :)
