Christmas 2010

Wow...it really doesn't even seem like Christmas has come & gone, but yet again it has.

Christmastime for us is always very busy, and this year was no different. The week of Christmas, I worked & was on call Mon.-Fri., and we had parties 4 out of those 5 days.

Monday night, we ate pizza and exchanged presents with the Isham's. For some reason, I didn't get any pictures, but John T. & I received matching (his is blue & mine is white) Colts jackets & gift cards. Clay, the Isham's son, and pretty much my little brother at heart, got lots of John Deere gear & gift cards. I always look forward to spending this night with Donna, Clayton, Clay & my mom & dad!

Tuesday night, we went to John T.'s granny's to exchange presents with her & eat yummy treats! We always get way too many presents from her, but we love her so much! :o)

Wednesday, I had my work party & that night, we went to Tim & Lorrie's to exchange presents with them & John T.'s sisters.

 So many boxes & paper!

I had to work half of the day on Christmas Eve, so after I got off, I went to JT's mamaw Eva's house to exchange presents with her and eat supper with JT's extended family. JT had to work midnights, so I went everywhere by myself on Christmas eve. I missed him so much!

I couldn't stay at Eva's too long because I had to meet my mom & dad and head to Loudon for Christmas Eve at my aunt Sharon & uncle Daryl's.

Last year, Sharon bought a yule log for us to try, and oh my goodness, it was amazing, so she promised she would buy another one this year, and it was yet again, amazing...& so cute! Thank you VG's Bakery in Farragut!

 I love their house at Christmastime...it is so pretty!

On Christmas morning, John T. got home really early. When I went to the door to meet him, I saw that we had a white Christmas! There was snow everywhere, and it was so pretty!

 We opened presents from each other as soon as he came in, and then we went back to bed!

I love my new North Face coat!

 New Colts apparel

 Looking at our yard, later in the day.... After JT woke up, we went to Tim & Lorrie's for ham & rolls and then headed to Harriman to see my nanny, poppy, mom & dad.

    Driving down the mountain to get to my nanny's: it was so pretty!

 We exchanged presents with the fam, and then it was time for John T. to go back in to work.

We hope each of you had a very Merry Christmas! I know we did. We are definitely blessed beyond measure!
