Christmas 2008

Mitchell & I had a fabulous time in Indiana visiting my side of the family! We headed out early Tuesday morning for the 9-10 hour trip. Once to Indiana, in record time, we spent the last 30 minute drive of the trip in the car for an extra 2 hours due to the freezing rain. But, it was well worth the trip! Toby & Bug did fabulous! They kept entertained barking at the other travelers on the road :). We did dinner and drinks with my parents & Kyle & Kandyce at 'Mud Socks Bar & Grill'. And, Wednesday, Mitchell and I spent helping my mom in the kitchen with Christmas Eve dinner. We made some puppy chow and helped her with the dinner. It was a delicious meal! And, everyone was able to join us. Amy,Travis,Miles,Kyle, & Kandyce. Andy and everyone else spent the day opening presents,eating brunch, relaxing, playing games, having a yummy dinner on Christmas Day. My dad beat my mom and I and Mitchell at Clue! Who knew Madame Rose was the murderer! in the Drawing Room! With the Wrench! Haha! Friday, Mitchell and I went shopping and saw Seven Pounds with my parents. Excellent movie! And, we spent the evening at Amy and Travis's playing Pictionary with everyone and eating some great Chili! We were sad to not see Sarah & John, but they were definitely missed while they were in Texas over the Holidays! Today, we had to sadly drive back to Georgia! We are glad to be back in our own home where the dogs are free to run, but it was sad to say good-bye after such a short trip. We made it in 9 hours!

Just in enough time for Mitchell and I to unpack, swim 2 miles, cook dinner, and relax!!

It's hard to believe Christmas 2008 has already come and gone! Looking forward to many more in the future!!
