We made the trek to LaGrange today to have Christmas with my mom's side of the family. We have it at one of my cousins house who has lots of land, a pond, a doonbuggy, a trampoline, a four wheeler, and a golf cart. It is a boys paradise. Micah loved being there and being "shoutside". He got to ride the golf cart a few times and jump on the trampoline and slide. He could have cared less about presents because he wanted to be playing outside. It was a lot of time in the car and it was a long busy day but well worth it. It is fun having Micah become a real part of our family traditions. I am so thankful that my 86 (I think) year old Grandmama was still there and as great as always. Every year she says next year I hope to be here "Lord willing and the creek don't rise..." and I am glad the Lord is still willing it! We took a picture with her and all of her grandchildren and it was fun to see how many kiddos she has impacted and touched.

how fun! i know how you feel about the cousins. i have 2 that are turning 18 and 19 the beginning of the year and i feel the same way. i think that means we're getting old.
Good to see your family - Grandmother looks good! Amy, "Mr. Ray" and I are spending the evening with Hayden! I can't wait. We are taking him to dinner, open presents and play Wii. He is so precious and I can only hope that someday....someday....his mom will work through all the things in her life and realize the precious gift she has. If she looks at your blog, I'm sure she will miss all the family things. Those family times linger in your mind for the rest of your life! Love you. Merry Christmas. mkm
