1. After a terrible night sleep, we all slept soundly all the way to GA.
2. Flash loved the car ride, plane ride, train ride, bus ride, rented car ride all the way there. It was an all-transportation day!
3. Fabulous party! Flash played "Chase" with Hubby's old high school football pal's daughter
4. She was in the church nursery the next morning - they played tag.
5. At the 7 o'clock service there was NO NURSERY. Pastor said "Only the mother and grandmother notice if they're fussy". Uh huh. He pulled and broke my necklace (beads everywhere), kept asking when we could go to the party, and at one point escaped and ran up and down the aisles (its a two aisle church). On the bright side, he handed out candy canes to everyone before the service, in a very friendly way.
5. His new friend was at the party too! They we're not allowed to play "Chase" at this party...too many knick knacks. But they did play "Parade" throughout the house, especially past the bowl of nuts.
6. Christmas Day - Bob the Builder toolbelt (The only thing he asked for was "a new hammer"), trains and new food for the play kitchen ruled! I realized later that we didn't leave the house all day and that Flash and I had really only been in two rooms!
7. Big news from Aunt K!
8. Boxing Day was Boy Day and Girl Day for us. MIL, Aunt and I went after-Christmas shopping at the Mall of GA, while Dad, Granpa, Uncle and Flash went to Lowes to ride the tractors and then to Mexican food, followed by a nap.
9. A taxing ride home...transportation was not as fun the second time around, apparently. Drove to my mom's to have Christmas dinner and presents there. Surprise! Aunt P. and my cousin were there! Lots of presents for my nephew and Flash (they are the kids afterall) especially a shopping cart for my boy! BLiss! Equipped with a wonky, squeaky wheel, it travelled at high speeds throughout the house. It was the first thing he asked about this morning.
10. We arrived home, safe and sound before 8:30!
Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!
