christmas on Grant Park Avenue...oh yeah!

Greg and I hosted our first Christmas on Grant Park Avenue and it was great!!!! Merezie and Coop came up a few days earlier and we went to see ICE at the Gaylord, baked cookies (after 3 attempts to get the sugar cookie recipe right), went to dinner, and watched Christmas movies. The rest of the crew came down the day before Christmas and we had a great time! I loved having everyone over....we did have some National Lampoon moments. Buddy boy starting a fire without opening the vents, the blinds falling while I tried to open the windows, and a pan of stuffing exploding..."What is going on?" -Reagan Fuller It was a great Christmas as you can see in the pictures!!! Thank you to all the fam for coming up....love yall.

Our computer was old and "caught a virus" so we were without a computer for a few weeks (we bought a new one) so I will slowly catch up on my blog entries. We had three wonderful CHRISTMAS weekends so I will start with the first one in Georgetown! :)

The week before Christmas we headed to Georgetown to celebrate Christmas with Papaw and Carlene. We decorated the tree, sat out by the fire pit, ate, drank, played catch phrase, played 42, and enjoyed watching Cousin Coop and Rory experience Christmas!!!! Here are some pictures from our fun weekend. Thank you for a great weekend Carlene and Papaw!!! PS RORY LOVES HER LAWNMOWER.
