unfortunately this picture doesn't do justice to the enormity of our complicated travel experience. This is me on the couch reading Twas the Night Before Christmas to the kids on Christmas eve - notice that the background looks like our apartment in Philly not Bubba and Pop's house. Anyway the short version is early morning ice storm, collision with bus, retickteting, airline error, airline error, airline error, one whole morning at the Philly airport to be finally sent home to try again at 3 am the next morning. We still had a lovely Christmas eve - Chinese take out and all.
After all that travel craziness and 2 mornings of waking the kids up at 4am and with the hour time difference we had some pretty early mornings at Bubba and Pop's. Thank goodness for the dvd player and word world - now a whole family favorite or everyone in the house would have been up before dawn. 
Santa came to our new house!!!
All the little cousins and me. Isaac, Linden Nikki, Evie and Blakelyn.
