Christmas Day

Even though we slept at our own house, we packed the car and drove back to Hattie and Poppy’s first thing in the morning! What a sight when we walked in! The tree was surrounded by colorful presents and it was obvious that Santa had been very good to us this year. The whole family sat down for breakfast before we got started and then we opened presents in our pajamas until around 2 in the afternoon. We played lots of card games and ended up staying in our jams the entire day! Halfway through the day snow clouds rolled in and started dusting the grass and trees with fluffy white snowflakes. It was the first White Christmas in Georgia in over 120 years! How special that Carter’s first Christmas was also our first White Christmas since leaving Long Island. Later on, Carter enjoyed a few bites of twice baked potatoes before getting tucked in for the night. Everyone else spent the rest of the evening watching the snow fall (post coming), eating “Reindeer Diapers,” and playing Team Gin.
