Hubby and I drove up to Baltimore for Christmas. We took the girls, too, since we knew we’d be gone for awhile. We dropped them off at his Mom’s house and then went to visit with my parents.
We saw Eric and Kelsey briefly before they had to scurry off to PA to visit with her family. I didn’t get a picture of them, so here’s a shot from about a month ago…
That’s actually one of their engagement photos. They make a very cute couple. We’re all quite excited for them! (The wedding is scheduled for April 2013.)
After visiting with my parents for awhile, we went and visited with Hubby’s Mom. Since Shannon is in San Diego, we Skyped with her while she opened the gifts we’d mailed to her. I didn’t get a pic of the computer screen (that would be pretty lame anyway), but here’s a pic of Shannon with Hubby from this past September.
Amy and family met us at Grandma’s house. We were all very happy to see them together. You may or may not remember that last Christmas, TJ was deployed.
Brianna, who recently turned 11, is getting pretty tall. In fact, she’s almost caught up to Grandma.
The boys were looking awfully cute. And they even posed nicely for a picture.
Sort of. Gaige has this thing about making weird faces in pictures. He’ll regret that one day when he’s grown and I show his girlfriends all these goofy-face shots I have.
That one is better. I cannot believe how fast they are all growing!
Here’s one of Hubby and me. He’s looking a bit Oriental. Normally I would’ve selected a different shot — Amy took several — but they were really blurry. She’s not used to my camera.
Here’s one of Hubby with the grandkids. The boys were watching Pop play with Amy’s Kindle and Brianna was fooling with her iPod. Techno-Christmas!
Finally, here’s a shot of me…
I’m looking a bit shiny. I wanted to get a shot earlier in the day when I could’ve gone outside and captured this without the flash. But I forgot. I still wanted to show off the scarf Granny Trace made for me last year, so you just have to suffer through the shiny pic. Sorry!
I’d love to hear all about your holiday. More pics to come later this week when my parents, brother, sister-in-law, nephew, Eric, and Kelsey come to VA for a visit…
