December was a really, really busy month for us. It was filled with fun...but didn't allow much time to sit down with the old blog. I'll do my best to catch up since I literally did 2 posts during the entire month of December!
On the first weekend of the month, we had our annual Christmas get-together with my dad's side of the family. This is always a good time. It's so casual and laid back and fun to get together. This year was a little different since 2 of my cousins are now in college and weren't out for their break yet so they weren't there. We missed them this year and it makes me sad to think about a few years from now when 2 more cousins won't be here for this weekend. We may have to push it out to a different weekend at that point!
Anyway, we had Aunt Kathy, Uncle Duncan, Virginia, Abigail, Aunt Alison, Uncle Wells, my dad, Shanghai and MaSha over for our little celebration. We had a great time together!

My dad and Shanghai spent the night with us on Saturday so we got to hang out some more after every one else had to drive home. Clemson was in the ACC Championship game so that's pretty much what our evening consisted of. We won. YAY!

My dad and Shanghai had to leave on Sunday to drive back to Jacksonville. It was a brief trip, but important and valued, none the less. The whole weekend was great - family time, gifts, food...all good things.
