Christmas Part #1

"Lots of people to see, traveling to do, and food to eat!" Yes, this was the motto of our Christmas this year! Lets see, I will try to go through this as quickly as possible without leaving out any of the good stuff. hehe.
Thursday, (two days before Christmas) I drove up to Mississippi to Chris's moms house. He was supposed to be getting in early that next morning and his older brother and his family were in town so I headed on up. It was my first time meeting Derell, Lorie, and their kids, but I really enjoyed it! We spent most of that night just talking and sitting around. I was so excited to see Chris, but with his job there are a lot of uncertainties. This is really the biggest part I don't like. Where as he was supposed to be home early Friday morning, he didn't pull into the yard until that night around 6:30. Friday was one of the longest days for me! But, I did enjoy the fact that others were there to make it go by a little faster. I really enjoyed getting to know Lorie. She is someone I can easily relate to. Good to know my future sister in law and I can get along, right! :) Later that evening everyone but myself had to go to town and see some people, I stayed behind, hoping that Chris would be home soon......

Yay!!!! He made it! This was a pic of when he first pulled up in front of the house! I was one very happy girl! Our greetings were sweet and I didn't let go of him for I know a good while. Finally went in the house, got settled and waited for everyone else to get home. So... everyone comes home, everyone loves on Chris, everyone goes to bed. Lol.
Christmas Eve: Chris and I spent the morning and some of the afternoon with his mom and family. His brother and Lorie were having to leave really early Christmas morning so we enjoyed them and the kids as long as possible. But for the most part, we all were just around the house. We all ended up outside for family pictures. This was fun... and playing outside afterward was nice to. I love being in the outdoors. And the weather was just right!

No, we didnt really all wear santa hats lol. I edited them in!

After family pictures we spent a good while just hanging out outside, playing in Chris's truck and enjoying each others company. The kids chased each other around, Jonanthan was taking pictures of everyone, and then it was truck horn blowing time. Lol.
