Christmas with My Mom

She loved this gift the most!






Little Danny asked for some Under Armour gear.  He got two shirts.



The aftermath.

On Friday, December 26, we exchanged gifts with mom.  First, we ate a really big and delicious meal.  We had baked ham, dressing, creamed corn, green beans, yeast rolls, home made mac and cheese, and cranberry sauce.  For dessert we had all of the left over pies, fudge, and cookies.

Mom, Mallory, and I got up and went shopping.  We went to Jerry J's for fuel, Walmart for discounted wrapping paper and candy, Belks, and Kroger.  This was my mistake.  I was extremely tired and sore after all of this standing/walking.  I will NOT be shopping like this again until after the baby is born.  Although I took a short nap, it wasn't enough.  I was not feeling well enough to pass out the gifts this year so Melissa stepped in and did it.

Still it was a great time.  We had so much fun eating together, playing together, and celebrating the Christmas holiday.  The way we reproduce, it seems like the fun will never end.....at least not for a while.

It's amazing how quickly a few hundred dollars' entertainment lasts!  Especially with this bunch!
