Christmas at Grandma's

On Friday night, December 23rd, we celebrated Christmas with my Dad's side of the family at my Grandma and Papa's house. We had great food and fellowship. After supper, we watched an old movie of the grandchildren performing our famous "Grand Ole Opry," and got a lot of laughs. We had a awesome night! We have Christmas every year at their house. I have so many amazing memories of past Christmas' here. And this is one of them. My Grandma puts this little tree, along with a wreath just like it, out every year. And I just love it. Isn't it so cute?

My Dad, me and ShaneHere is Shane and Grandma doing a little "cooking." This year, for Christmas and Thanksgiving, we arrived around lunch time and helped in the kitchen. Grandma and I made her amazing Crock Pot Mac and Cheese, corn, okra and I made my pineapple casserole. We had some time to just hang out, play some cards and relax before everyone got there and the festivities began. There is something so "sweet" about cooking and being in the kitchen together. This is our new tradition that I hope we continue every year.

And you would've just had to have been there for this moment. Grandma got a Carolina shirt and made a joke about it being a Tim Tebow shirt. To our surprise, she evidently really likes Mr. Tim Tebow, and we were giving her a hard time about it. She got tickled and I caught this picture mid-laugh! It was quite entertaining!
