And the Countdown Begins..8 days

:-(

The girls and I have officially made it back from our final visit to Louisiana before we make the trek north. What a great time we had. After Thanksgiving on Thursday, B and I took our seats in Death Valley for the final game of the season. What a game. We're still glad we went, but man, what a game!

On Saturday, we headed to Hammond for a little after Turkey Day party. The food was great, the company was even better, and we all really enjoyed ourselves. It made it that much harder to say goodbye.

B flew back to NJ on Monday morning, and as much as we wanted to stay behind, I needed to get back to Alabama to start the goodbyes.

We've been here 28 hours, and we've already had 2 dinners with the Colvins ( Ira, Flossie and Momma Jennifer). Last night, we joined them for their jaunt to the Home Depot for their Christmas tree. We then followed them home and watched as Momma Jennifer almost crunched the tree as she pulled into the garage. OOPS :-) Luckily for the tree, Momma Jennifer still has her hearing, and she stopped just shy of the tree shreiking in pain. With the disaster averted, the tree was brought into the house, and a little team of elves helped decorate. They were sure proud of their designs.

Here's a pic or two of the night as well as one from Uncle PJ's birthday.
