Merry Christmas - a little late
We had a wonderful Christmas. We went to church with Mom & Dad on Christmas Eve and then spent the rest of the day with them.
Josh was a little grumpy a good bit of the day - I guess we should have forced him to take a nap. Oh well! He still had a good time.
By the end of the day, Callie was getting a little grumpy, too. We discovered she was running a fever of 102! :( When we got home, we gave her some Tylenol (cold medicine - she was starting to cough and have a runny nose). Mom agreed to keep Callie with her on Christmas Day while we went to Kingsport.
When we got up Christmas morning, Callie seemed to be feeling better - no fever, but still a cough and runny nose. The cold medicine kept that at bay most of the day.
Santa was very good to the kids. Josh was extremely pleased with his presents. :) The girls got a little kitchen set which they played with while the rest of us were opening presents. They weren't interested in opening gifts.
We got ready to leave for Kingsport and decided to stop somewhere and get the kids some lunch (there were a few places open). Well, we messed up and wound up going to the Huddle House at exit 407. We ordered some grilled cheese sandwiches for the kids and after 30 minutes, we still didn't have any food. People that came in after us were getting their food, though. We finally just left (what a wasted 45 minutes). We grabbed some cheese sticks from the convenient store and hit the road. We didn't get to Kingsport until 2:30 (much later than we had originally planned).
We had a wonderful supper w/ Phil's family and then all of the kids got to open more presents! Boy, did they ever wind up with a boatload of stuff!! :)
We came home Tuesday evening and crashed at home. I took the rest of the week off, so we just stayed at home all week, which was wonderful!
The kids and I did go to Dollywood on Thursday with my parents. Before that, we met up with a great gal from one of my message boards! She and her family were in Gatlinburg from Indiana. Josh and her little boy hit it off at once!! That's really amazing because both are fairly shy. :) You would have thought they were best friends at the end of the visit!!
