We have finally arrived in P'cola! In my opinion, that was the longest trip ever! But in reality, we made pretty good time.
Sunday we went to church at my parent's church. For lunch we made little pizzas with many different toppings. YUM!
Monday we went to the outlet shops in Foley, AL. For those who went to PCC, you know that they are the best outlets ever! We also ate an early dinner at Lamberts. Again, one of the best restaurants ever. It's the home of the throwed rolls! YUM! We got some good deals while we shopped. New clothes for all of us and Daddy and I got new Crocs slippers. Nice and warm.
Tuesday we made monkey bread for breakfast and hung out at the house for most of the day. Tuesday night was our Christmas Eve. The kids got to open one present and I let Papa open one of his. It was an injector for him to use for our Christmas turkey. G'ama opened her birthday present--A Christmas Carol--so we could watch it while we ate our "snacky meal." Every Christmas Eve my family only eats snacky stuff--lil smokies, hankey pankeys, crackers and cheese, bologna, cookies, fudge---YUM!
Wednesday we had our Christmas. This was the year of the Seminole. There were many FSU gifts this year. But the cutest were the ones my kiddies got. C got a FSU football uniform complete with a helmet. And K got a FSU cheerleader outfit. C immediately went to try his on. He wore it just about all day. We haven't tried K's on yet, but it looks cute!
We had our big dinner this afternoon--ham, turkey, stuffing, mashed tatos, sweet tatos, rolls grape salad, broccoli casserole, corn, cranberry sauce. YUM!
Tonight was spent playing with gifts and eating pies and leftover snacks. It was a very nice day. But now I have a headache, I think because of the humidity. I could never live back down here because of that. Although, it does make K's hair curl really cute.
Hopefully, tomorrow I will get some more pictures to download. But for now here are just a few.
This is my grandma. She got new gloves, hat and scarf for Christmas. Isn't she cute?
