presents wrapped and ready for the big day...
even L had a few surprises in store for the mommy and the daddy!
when the big day is almost here, a snowstorm is expected in North Carolina, so santa arrives a little early so we can make an earlier flight...December 23 to be exact.
one for the season's favs... personal library kit!
we made it to n.c. the night before the big storm. grandma has to check on her "blow ups" to make sure the snow isn't too heavy on them!
and her grape arbor... she and i went for a christmas walk around her property. it was beautiful. perfect. and even more perfect to walk with my mom.
see, i told you.
here is "snowie chloie" l, alexis and i built christmas night. i have to admit, i felt like a little girl again building a snowman for my mom as she watched from the kitchen window. loved the moment.
memaw truax's beautiful hands.
my sweet aunt. can't help but know she is a child of God when you're in her presence. love her.
l's dna kit. another christmas favorite.
there was no absence of illness on this vacation. mr. w spent many days just like this. (glad no one took my picture while i was so sick...he pulls it off much better than i)
grandma's house is a bird watcher's dream.
l and i visited the country's largest home with cher and the girls. still amazed.
never enough cousin time. yes, there were tears and pleas to move to n.c. again when we left.
speaks for itself. it was very windy...
you can imagine mr. w's comments.
no need for staples now!
the barn my papaw built where sarah and i used to play.
oh i still remember that darned black snake in the hay loft... maybe that's why i hate them so much.
papaw's tractor that dad still uses.
it's true, they don't make things like they used to.
FINALLY! i met baby L...
seriously, even his drool is cute!
i love how they love her.
melts me.
this does too.
love.
