The day after Christmas, we traveled to Grammy and G-Diddy's to
celebrate with the rest of the family. There is something so special
about sitting in front of the fire together while listening to Mannheim
Steamroller and watching the tree. Aunt Cyncy always reminds us how
important it is not to waste a good fire! My mother-in-law does a
beautiful job decorating her house for Christmas and has the best
collection of Santas displayed in every room. This year, Abby had a
blast running from room to room finding each one.
We spent
time with Grammy, G-Diddy, Uncle Bradley, Alex, Uncle Tommy, Aunt
Cyncy, Uncle John and Nana (and of course Greeley). It was a full
house! Abby had played with everyone, but whenever she could she would
sneak upstairs to the second floor to play with Grammy's Ginny dolls.
The
weather was great for it being mid-December...so mild actually that
Abby rallied all the guys to go outside and play football with her in
the yard! She also played the organ with her Daddy, walked around with
Nana's walker, bounced around with her uncles, played on the phone with
Alex and was convinced that Uncle John must be Santa because of his
white beard!
With all that fun, it's a wonder we even found time to exchange gifts! :)
