Merry Christmas (1 day late)

I hope all of you had a Merry Christmas, I sure did.  I loved waking up to a white Christmas but was a little nervous about getting from DS, Wanda's, to the main highway.  Here are a few pictures of what it looked like.

There was snow falling until about Eaton GA and then it picked up just south of Cartersville until just south of Atlanta.  It cleared and it was smooth sailing the rest of the way to Davenport.  It took us right at 11 hours to drive straight through.

It sure was good to get to Somewhere, though a little sad w/out Sedona.  It was about 68 degrees when we arrived with the wind blowing so we got quickly out of our sweats and long sleeves and donned our shorts and t-shirts.  Short lived as it got cold later in the evening and the next three days (the amount of time Jonathan & Taylor will be here) should be very cold.  After that it's back up in the high 70's.  Ok, enough of the weather report.  You can always go to the Weather Channel for that info.  LOL

We had a lovely time with all the festivities.  We had a Christmas party at Jerry's where they sang karaoke and howled at the moon.

Christmas Eve is when the Moore Family celebrates Christmas.  Michael (my nephew) and Teri Slack hosted our big family this year.  There were only 47 of us who made it this year.  Roy was working on the RR so his absence was really felt as were others.  It was a great time and seemed to be more relaxed than in previous years.  Thanks Teri and Michael and all your kids who worked so hard to make it happen.

When we left Michael's we decided that it would be best if we had our Christmas on eve instead of Christmas morning.  I got a Nook Color and was thrilled.  It's a learning curve so I'll let you know my review at some other time.

Just glad we made it safely home and everyone is healthy.

Later...
