Holiday Hoopla

I gotta say that I love the holidays, but boy do I love when they are over!  Talk about stress...  This year, we said that we weren't going anywhere for the holidays.  We planned to stay home and enjoy our time here.  Well, that didn't happen.  We ended up visiting 5 different places.  We had a great time though.  Here is our holiday in a nutshell...plus a few extra bits of info.

1 very EARLY visit from Santa...Gracie decided she couldn't sleep any longer at 4:30 AM Christmas Day.
4 is the number of people it took to put Gracie's new art desk together.
6+ hours it took us to get to my grandmother's house through the blizzard like conditions Saturday night.
3 nights we spent in Alabama traveling around to all the families houses.
1 1/2 hours spent opening the presents bought over the last two months.
3 very happy people living under our roof!

And last, but not least, one very surprised and excited girl when she found the cell phone in her stocking Christmas morning!  :)
