Christmas was great!!

We had such a wonderful Christmas this year!! Kris and Megan's family were here from NC and we were able to house them here, and then we were blessed to have Christmas at Joel & Katie's new home. There were kids everywhere!! That is a huge blessing to grandparents.

Kris and Megan really surprised us with a phone call on Monday morning the 22nd at about 5:30. Meg said," Do you know where Burlington is? We just went through it." We weren't expecting them until around noon. They were just so pumped to get home that they drove straight thru. What a great surprise!!

Joel had to work most of the week. (That's how retail works!) but he was able to get time off for Christmas day and boy was that fun!! We all went to their house for Christmas. They just moved in on November 17th. It is an older home, but it is real nice!

For an update on their new home go to http://www.katieandjoelsfamily.blogspot.com/

and they have lots of pictures there.

Kris and Megan just left this afternoon, Jan 2nd, to go back to North Carolina. That was the hardest part. But we know that God will take care of them. Kris talked like he would be getting deployed to the middle east in May. Wish this war would get over!

As for meemaw & Peepaw, Peepaw goes back to work on the 5th and Meemaw on the 12th.

So much for a couple of weeks off. Boy did it go fast!!
