Around the Country in 9 days...


So, our little fam has just returned from our trip back southeast (AL, TN, SC) and we had an absolute blast!

First we landed in Huntsville, greeted by Deedee and the kids. Vegged out at her house for a few hours and Dave finally got to see their house. Then it was off the Mom's in Nashville for the beginning of our belated Christmas. I just loved those days filled with Goodwill trips, puzzling, playing games and just enjoying each others company. After a few days hanging out with Mom and Tom and with some stop-ins by Jen and Brody(what a sweetie pie!), Craig and his girlfriend, and Jared, we made the long drive to Dad's in South Carolina.

Dad and Sue were all geared up for our tardy Christmas and they were so sweet to even leave their decorations up for us! It was so nice to be able to just relax, drink coffee and take the occasional shopping trip. Dad and I even got in a round of golf at their local par 3 course. We were also lucky enough to have Aunt Wanda, Lisa, and Granny make the trip while we were there. It was great to see Jesse and Jay again too! We also got to hang out with Deedee, Brent, and the kids the entire time! Charlotte and Sarah were fast friends...it was sort of a love-hate sort of thing...dotted with marathon hugs and coffee cup slugs (poor Sarah)
All in all we could not have had more fun! and we thank everybody involved for creating that for us!

You can sure tell those 2 girls are cousins! What fun you had!!! (but personally, I'm glad you are back in Nor Cal!) I love the way you wrote your blog, Meghan, and all the "possibilities" that "showed up." Love it, love it. I know you're truly missed by all of us when you are not with us, right family?
