December Randoms

She's always up for a little crafting

New car for S since hers was totaled in the accident - 
another white 4Runner, but newer this time

I attended a Christmas party with the girls from the 
neighborhood

Last soccer practice - we are ready for a little break!

I thought this was really funny.  Life360 has
her WALKING 35mph!

Volunteering at Greer Relief's Christmas Shop

Because Grandpa and Gigi had been sick, 
we were not able to see them as we usually do,
but they wanted to make sure we had our gifts
before Christmas so we met Grandpa at a truck stop
on I85 about halfway to make the exchange!

Teddy Tuesday

S's gift to C was a "Teddy Tuesday"! This is something that an Instagram account we follow about a Golden Retriever named Teddy does with his owner!  So, C wore his new Archie(our friend's hairless cat) socks and the first stop was a pup cup from Starbucks.  Followed by a trip to Pet Smart to pick out a toy - which they then took to their friend's house for their cats!  SO FUN to watch this little trip!!

Christmas Day 2025

Today was Christmas!!

We spent the morning unwrapping gifts, eating breakfast, putting things together and cleaning up the trash... LOL!!

We went over to Elliot and Lara's for lunch.  Unfortunately it was raining so we ended up inside more than we usually are, but the boys and Larson still made the most of being together!  They were off on their adventures while S rubbed the fur off their dog!

Merry Christmas!

Christmas Eve 2023

Tonight we attended Christmas Eve service at Fellowship Greenville!  They did such a great job with it!  They even had a photo-op set up for families to have someone take their picture.  A nice little touch;)  

After service, we came back and had dinner and the kids opened up their Christmas jammies from Grandpa and Gigi.

We then made hot chocolate, got in the car, and went and looked at Christmas lights around town.  

It was a very full day of all things family and Christmas and I wouldn't have it any other way!

Christmas Adam 2023

Christmas Adam is one of my favorite holidays that we do as a family!  This year was at my house and was, again, heavy appetizers!  We had a house full of family!  Unfortunately, Grandpa and Gigi were not feeling well this year and could not make it.  They were very much missed!!  

We all ate and drank and ate some more!!  It feels like Christmas is officially here now!

Winter Lake Escape

We've been so busy lately and we needed a couple of days to regroup and recharge!  We spent some time up at the lake and it is just what we all needed!  Time to slow down!!
