Yummy

 
My dinner tonight was made by these lovely young ladies. It was delicious.

Little Aunt Ps

 
 
 
The girls love to dress up after a spend the night. This morning when I got up they were already dressed in Aunt Ps ballet suits from many years ago.

Christmas at Grannie's

 
 
 
 
After braving to snow to get there, we had lots of cousins, gifts and fun at Grannie's. As usual, there was way too much food. My sister gave me the best gift ever. I can now run the thermostat down to 50!

Merry Christmas

 
Merry Christmas from Hunta and her girls!

Family Christmas

 
 
 
 

Family Christmas is always so much fun. Who can buy the funniest gift? Thanks Paula for the yummy food.

Spend the night

 
 
 
The jingle bells visited in Aunt P and Uncle A's Sunday School class at HS on Sunday. On Monday night, there was a wonderful spend the night at Hunta's. They all slept really well until about 7 am when they all got in the same bed. Breakfast was a fashion show wearing all of the dress up clothes that I kept from my children's childhood and some clothes that I've gotten in other countries. The combinations are awesome.

VA to AL

 
 
 
 
The last day in VA M, age 12, built a cute minature snowman. Gingerbread houses were made with J & D, the neighbors, while I packed the car for the ride to AL. One of the diversions, while we were stopped for an hour at exit 8 on I81, was jewelry making using wax. M, age 6, made E, age 4, toe rings and anklets. The last picture is the jingle bell sisters on their way to church on Sunday.

Mad's cafe and the inverted snow cone family

 
 
 
 

The 12 year old opened a cafe at lunch. She made the menu, the food and best of all, cleaned up when she was done. The little girls loved it. After lunch, we went out to make a snowman. Unfortunately the best we could do was the inverted snow cone mom and baby.

Pajama day to snow day

 
 
 
 
E had pajama day at school on Wed. She picked out the matching shoes. We woke up on Thursday to a snow day. Thankfully there is not as much as the two feet + last year. It is very powdery so I couldn't even hit the 12 yr old with a snowball. Maybe when we go back out at noon, we can build a snow man.

Merry Christmas

 
 
 
 
While waiting to go to church, the little girls and I were taking pictures. We wish you a Merry Christmas from VA.
