On Christmas Eve, Rob’s Dad and Step-Mom arrived. I decided to do a nice meal and make it something a little more traditional. So I made a homemade marinaded/injected for a ham with green beans and pecan praline sweet potatoes. It was SO yum! Christmas morning after Santa dropped by! Opening presents Drew with his new, shiny trombone. He was very excited! Look you can see my reflection! Christmas Day snacks! Making Christmas dinner! After dinner I got on facebook and noticed someone who doesn’t live to far said that it was snowing! Went outside and here’s what we saw!…

With Christmas approaching I thought I would post this pics I scanned on one of my scanning sprees. I wished I had more pictures of me with Santa and you never know, the more I go through old pics from Grandmother’s house, I may come up with more. How priceless is this one? Me, I supposed this was my first Christmas 1975 with the Sleeping Santa! I just laugh every time I look at this one. This one, well I’m not having anything to do with this rosy cheeked guy. “Let me down!” Here I am at Monnig’s after having…

This morning we went up to Atlanta for the Children’s Christmas Parade. We really enjoyed the parade and it really got us in the Christmas spirit. Afterwards, we walked over to Peachtree Center and ate at El Ninfa’s for lunch. After that we headed back home so we could watch the SEC Championship game on TV. Here are some pictures I took during the parade.

The weekend before Thanksgiving, we headed up to Greenville, SC for the final soccer tourney of this half of the season for Drew. We didn’t get out of town until after 6 because I had to work, which was fine. We had opted not to leave earlier, because we were trying to avoid Atlanta traffic. Our ride there was good, and happily arrived around 11 pm to our hotel. We stayed at the Hyatt Place. Saturday we woke up bright and early to get out to the fields for an 8 a.m. game. The game ended in a tie. We…
