And The Stockings Were Hung

We are back from a good holiday weekend. We ate lots of turkey and I finished off a whole cherry pie after picking on it for 3 days. Yum. We did the shopping thing on Friday and the crowd at the Price Walmart was the biggest I have ever seen it. It was crazy! We were toward the front of the line and still didn't get the main things we wanted. We got a few things off the list but were kinda disapointed in it. I guess we can't win them all. After a few successful years, we were bound to have a less stellar one.
We got back last night and relaxed some then this morning we got out the rest of our Christmas decorations and Mike finished hooking up the outside lights to find that a few strands of our icicle lights aren't working , so he'll be heading back up to the roof to figure those out soon.
Our Christmas plans are changing on us. Usually we get up Christmas morning and do the present thing and have breakfast then head to Price, but after several days of Papa dropping big hints and telling us that we needed to be at his house for Christmas morning and him pointing out to Caleb where the chimney is to be sure Santa could find him, I think we are going to try it out.
So we will be doing the SC presents there and I think we'll leave the presents under our tree for the day after when we come home so we can still do our own little Christmas here as well. Wish us luck!
