Christmas

We started our Christmas off with a Christmas Eve Service then dinner at a Japanese Restaurant. The service was great. Garrett and I really loved it. Dinner was even more fun with Tatum. He loved to see all the fire as they cooked in front of us.

The next morning, after Santa had come for Tatum, we all watched as he had a ball. There were plenty of presents to be had by all. He must have been a good little boy to get all those presents.

On Christmas Day, after lunch we loaded up the car with all of our loot and headed off to see our new nephew, Joshua Stephens Hart (my sister's baby). He was so good and wonderfully cute. We all got to "see" Kristine through the magic of technology on the computer. The gifts she sent us were one of a kind.

If you know my mom, you know we had a feast for dinner on Christmas. She and Kathleen out did themselves. The company, the meal, the gifts were all wonderful, but the best thing was letting Princess Cobra and Joshua Stephens meet for the first time.

Garrett, myself, mom, and dad headed off that night to stay with our other mom and dad (Gladstone's). The next few days were spent relaxing, eating, and shopping. Finally, we headed home. It truly was worth all the effort, traveling, and backache (on my part) to see and visit with everyone.
