The Holidays...here and gone!

The Holidays are gone now and they were bittersweet. I loved having my parents in town and they greatly enjoyed being around the kids. But we sure needed to have all of our family around. That would have made it ideal. Hopefully next year, we'll come out and visit. Hopefully before then cause that seems like a long time to wait. Christmas was good. It was like 65 degrees outside and very sunny. A very non-White Christmas. Rueben was off for 10 days the week of New Years. It was so nice to have him home. Unfortunately he is back to clinical this week, so we're back to the daily grind. Here are some pictures of when my parents were around. Love you all!


Look Dad! Look Mom! It's finished. We finished it before the week was over. Thanks for all your help. It only lasted one day like this. It is back in the box waiting for the next time you come visit.
This is Sprinkles (Sam named it) our new addition to the family. Isabelle loves her! She goes around the house yelling "titty, titty...meeeeooow". It is the funniest thing ever. Sprinkles is very calm and affectionate. Perfect pet to have.

There is a huge park nearby that is called Tanglewood. Every year they put up Christmas lights...thousands of them. You drive thru the whole park looking at all these cool lights. It was very pretty.

We went to NC largest mall in Concord. It is humongous. Nana would be in paradise.

Ga'mma and his girl
(that's what she calls him)
