More Christmas

Peggy Goes Swimming

Peggy and I went to Tallassee last week to visit with Gram before things got crazy for Christmas. Mom forgot to tell us she had a water aerobics class to teach. Peggy was dying to get in and she had a blast. She jumped off the side of the pool multiple times and loved it!!! The pool and room were a toasty 93 degrees perfect for a cold winter day!!

Christmas Time Is Here

Peggy And Emilyn Visit Santa

Well, a good time was had by all. (one of my Dad's favorite phrases) We decided last minute (Friday afternoon) to take Peg and Em to the zoo to see Santa and have breakfast with him. Not knowing what this would entail, and not expecting much after the failed attempt to meet Santa at the Summit Christmas Parade, I went expecting the worst and hoping for the best. We were greeted by zoo volunteers and we entered and escorted to a wonderful breakfast with Santa. Peggy and I had been talking about Santa since I thought it would make her warm up to him easier. Even though she knows who Santa is, she wanted NOTHING to do with him. An arm's length was perfect. Enjoy the pics of my two favorite baby girls.

So Long, Fall

Okay, what happened to Fall this year? I feel as if I blinked and it was gone! I usually love Fall and all that goes with it; the breezy but not cold days, the Pumpkin Spice Lattes, the warm soups, and more. But this year, I just missed it. I guess the warm weather had a little to do with it. I didn't even take pictures of the absolutely gorgeous mums that I had. Needless to say, they are dead now. I took a few pics of our pumpkins before I threw them out. My favorite, of course, was the little pumpkin Sassy got painted for Peggy. It was just so cute and looked great on our table. Anyway, maybe next year, I will enjoy Fall a little more! Enjoy the pics.
