Christmas 2010















We had such a nice Christmas this year even if it may be remembered as the year everyone was sick! Williams family Christmas was at Peggy's this year. The day started with Mike waking up around 3 am shivering and shaking. He was miserable. We were in charge of the turkey breast and Mike going to smoke it. That plan was out and I was in charge! Luckily LuLu and Joe took ME to Sunday school, so I could cook and wrap presents then get myself ready for church. We had fun at Peggy's and the turkey was a hit. Christmas week Mike felt better but ME and I were sick but we still shopped, visited Santa, wrapped presents and cooked! Christmas Eve Mike felt yucky again and he and ME both had a fever on Christmas Day and the day after. Christmas morning we had Santa stuff at our house and at LuLu and joe's. Santa delivers the stockings to LuLu's house in our family. We had a good breakfast and opened presents at LuLu and Joe's with the family, then went home for naptime! After nap we went to Poppy and B's for more presents and dinner. All in all a very nice day. We had a nice snowfall in Montevallo on the day after Christmas which was a welcome break from the sleet of Christmas Day. ME seemed thrilled that Santa brought all three requests (Woody, Jessie and a duck pillow pet). She really enjoyed the Christmas season this year. Christmas is so special with a little one around!

Callaway Gardens 2010


















We had such a nice trip this year. We left early the morning after Thanksgving. Pat came wth LuLu and Joe which was great. ME is sucha good traveler. She enjoys the car and sleeps well in a hotel room (in her tent). We got a room as soon as we arrived and had a picnic lunch while we waited on the Iron Bowl to start. Pat, LuLu and Joe took ME to see the lights Friday night while Mike and I went to dinner which was nice for all of us! Auburn amnaged to pull out a win and ME loved the lights, so the first day was a hit. Saturday morning Mom, Dad and I went for a walk then met Mike, Pat and ME for breakfast. My girl loves waffles and bacon! After breakfast we went to the Butterfly center, Sibley Horticultural Center and the Discovery Center. Pat, LuLu and Joe left for home after we had lunch. We headed to the beach and I shopped at Christmas Village while ME and Mike played at the playground. After that Mike and ME hung out in the rom while I shopped downtown. When I returned I found Mike asleep on the bed and ME passed out in the floor! We watched some football then ordered pizza and went to see the lights. It doesn't matter how many times I go, I want the ride and lights to last longer! It is so much fun with ME! After the lights we went back to the room and settled in for the night. ME's new favorite movie is "It's a Wonderful Life" which I love! We came home after breakfast Sunday morning and got busy decorating for Christmas!
