Home alone...

Well we got back from our trip to Nashville in one piece. It was actually a really awesome trip this time! Last time we went, both babies were sick and did not sleep very good, which doesn't help. But this time, they did sooo awesome! I was so proud of them! They did really good on the trip up, only got a little fussy the last hour. Then they slept great at night, and even better at naptimes! And they were really well behaved the whole trip. It really helps me to relax and enjoy myself when my kids are good! So for thanksgiving, I was very thankful for them!

We also had a good visit with the rest of the family. We stayed with Denise and Jacob, and they are so similar to us that it's like we're at home! Denise got Hannah a cool tent and tunnel that they could play with. Here they are playing:




We had a good day on Thanksgiving as well. There was sooo much good food. I couldn't even begin to name it all. So we ate, then we sat around, then we went and played football. But it was THE coldest day up there, so it didn't last long. We all came back to Chris' house half frozen. But it was fun.

Then on Friday morning we went to the zoo. It was cool to let Elijah see all the animals that he has learned about. Sadly, I forgot my camera this day...so I don't have any pictures! Maybe someone in the family could give me some of theirs!?

Well, Friday night we all went to the Opryland Hotel. It is soo fantastic. It's huge, and has all kinds of stores and restaurants inside. And just trails and trails to walk through. And it was all decorated for Christmas, so it was really pretty! Here's our family pic:

Our last day there was Saturday, and we just had a big football get together at Denise's. We also played another round of family football, which was alot more enjoyable because it was like 70 degrees! It was alot of fun, and the best part for me was when I sacked the quarterback! Oh Yeah! Then we came back home and ate delicious ribs and pork tenderloin! The only sad part of the whole week was when Georgia Tech lost. :( But that's ok, we'll be back next week!

Well, that was the whole trip. And now we are home. But me and the kids are alone! Josh left on Tuesday to go to Panama City on a work trip. We do pretty good during the day without him, since that's the norm, but it's hard at night. He helps out alot with the babies, with dinner, baths, and bedtime. So we do miss him alot! And its hard to get in a bed all alone! But hopefully he'll be back tomorrow! OH, and I did get the house decorated for Christmas while he's been gone. So I feel like I am accomplishing something!

That's all for now!
