Where has the time gone?

What in the world have I been doing since late November? I am really bummed that I didn't keep up Paisley's blog better during the month of December. Christmas was great. Paisley didn't see Santa, so no pictures of that. We waited in line for about 15 minutes & it became clear to Mike and I that the actual meeting with Santa was not going to go well. And since the line was about an hour long, the decision was made not to push the issue this year. We'll ask Paisley again next year & see what she wants to do.

We had lots of Christmases:

• December 23rd was spent with Grandma, Grandma Fay & Aunt Jessica.
• Christmas Eve was spent with Aunt Jessica, Papa and the entire Gibson clan at Grandma Edith's. The travel to Mesquite was complicated by the snow and ice. And while I am certainly delighted by a white Christmas, I was not delighted by the 2 hour, very dangerous drive home from Mesquite on Christmas Eve. Ugh. We made it home safely, praise God!
• Christmas Day was spent with the Harbords after a nice quite Christmas morning at home, just the three of us.
• Then, on Saturday, the day after Christmas, we traveled to Birmingham to visit with my dear friend McKenzie, her daughter Elizabeth, and the Graham's. That trip will require it's own separate entry, it was one to remember. I want to be sure and document the details so I can tell Paisley about it some day. Wow.

I'll post pictures next...
