I am a little behind, so Blogger friends just forgive. Our Holidays were so much fun this year. We started off with our traditional Christmas at Papaw and Nanna's house. We ate lots of delicious food, enjoyed listening to David reading to us the Christmas Story, and then played a silly-fun game which included opening a layered present w/gloves on and a Santa hat. Santa Young was very good to us, the last present given out was to David. He opened a box as light as a feather-- inside was a certificate for all of us to go to Graceland and then stay at the famous Heartbreak Hotel. David was so excited. This has been one of his dreams. We left for Memphis on Monday to tour "The Big House", and had a wonderful time. Just as we were about to leave, Austin and I were taking a break and guess who walked beside us......John Stamos. Remember Jessie on Full House, and the ER Dr. Tony. David asked if we could take a pic w/ him and he gladly said Yes. Of Course, I have been teased for girlishly saying,"this is so-oo exciting". Our New Years week was so very fun. We headed to Chattanooga to our dear friends Joe, Greta, Kirsten and Christopher Rhyne's house. We welcomed in the New Year on our knees in prayer. We continued the Holiday visiting our good friends Craig and Debbie Downs. We had a delicious dinner at Famous Dave's, and then headed to their house for a fun party with some friends that we haven't seen in a long time. We had such a nice evening. We enjoyed sitting around while Craig's mom played the piano and we sang so many nice hymns. We loved playing with Marabelle, what a sweet puppy. We still had more celebrating and went to our old neighbors the McBrides house. Emily loved playing w/ Maddie and Maclaine, while Austin and Ben played a racing game. We woke up to the wonderful aroma of Brad's Special Pancakes. Yum.. We enjoyed our visit. As you see we love good times so we ended our celebration with our adopted Grandma, Mrs. Ford. We enjoyed dinner with the Daughertys and visited with Mark and his soon to be family. We feel so thankful having such wonderful friends. God has blessed us with so many special people in our lives. Happy Late New Year!! *To see pics, just click on the picture.
