NIGHT LIGHTS IN TUSCALOOSA

 There were many, many more sights

 and some were a little gawdier

 Love this garland made with green apples - will try to make some next year

MY FAVORITE GIFT THIS CHRISTMAS? IT'S A NO-BRAINER

IT'S THESE GUYS!  I LOVE MY FAMILY!!!

 JOSIAH GOT A GUITAR FROM POPPY

 UNCLE GRANT TUNED IT FOR HIM

 WE PLAYED GAMES TO GET SPECIAL GIFTS AND ROASTED MARSHMALLOWS TO MAKE SMORES

 ATE LOTS AND LOTS OF FOOD

 OPENED LOTS OF GIFTS

 IT SNOWED!!!

 JOSIAH GOT LOTS (TOO MANY, PROBABLY) OF GIFTS

BUT BASICALLY SPEND MOST OF HIS TIME WITH A WATER BOTTLE WITH COINS INSIDE!  HILARIOUS!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

HERE'S A little Ear Candy for your Christmas gift from the Ledbetters!  It's from my new fav band!

ENJOY!!

Tuesday was Yule Day!

Well, you know I always talk about how brilliant Brooke is - Well, she made

homemade marshmallows!  When she told me about it, I, in my narrow-mindedness thought,

"Why would you do that?  They're so cheap."

Then I saw them!  Fabulous!

 Grant stacked cups as tall as Brooke for Josiah to knock down

 We made hot chocolate to have with the marshmallows

Beautiful Girls!!

 We visited Mawmaw Weaver, and Santa Claus was there!!

 Grant took Josiah outside, and Santa had a cat!

It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year!!

Monday was Funday!

 Josiah and I rode the train at the Galleria

 Shopped around

 Rode the Carousel

 We happen to run into Cathi and Bethany

 Who were so sweet to take these pics - What a Serendipity!

 While we were playing around, these ladies made Christmas candy

 Monday night, John and Nora hosted everyone at their home.  O What Fun!

So glad these guys are home!
