The spirit of Christmas is alive and well in our little house this season.
Here's some proof that we're no scrooges around here.
Here's some proof that we're no scrooges around here.
Anna & Gavin the night we decorated our tree.
Hillbillies on Parade
(Otherwise known as the Clinton Christmas Parade)
Anna, our artist, drew a manger scene complete with lady bug.
Because everyone knows any self-respecting manager scene has to have a lady bug!
The Professor got his own Snuggie as a gift from the French Club...awwww.
We went to Roper Mountain Science Center in Greenville
to see a fabulous light display.
While we were there the kids got to see Santa, rosy cheeks and all.
Curious who our other child is? No, we didn't adopt.
It's Gavin and Anna's friend, Henry, who came along.
I made the cutest reindeer pops, from none other than moon pies, for Anna's class party.
Anna was a "heavenly host" in her preschool Christmas pageant.Her future husband, Shane, was a shepherd.
And, while the kids and the Professor were on vacation,
they made the annual gingerbread house.
So here we are on Christmas eve. Our first Christmas spent in Clinton. Elfie has defected back to the North Pole leaving behind Christmas pajamas for all who wanted them plus "Santa Buddies", a movie which the kids had been dying to see. Santa's cookies have been baked and are cooling. All the presents are under the tree wrapped. All that's left is to sit and watch "A Christmas Story" and wait for Santa to make his magic at our little house in our little town in South Carolina. Merry Christmas ya'll.
