Emma and Sam went on a little lunch date today!

 

Today we cleaned out a good bit of the Lane Creek garage.

 My car is in the shop and I had a dermatology appointment in Athens, so Scott took me to the appointment today. I needed to clear out the garage before Alex and Leah moved in and Scott was sweet enough to put the trailer on the back of his truck so we could we clean out the garage and haul stuff to a dumpster at one of his warehouses. Living in the LC house for 21 years, we needed to dump several things… one being a huge old box tv that was in the bonus room. It weighs about a bigillion pounds! Scott and Keith moved it from the bonus room to the garage several weeks ago. 💪💪💪

Haha, I was sending pics to Keith and kids all day asking, “Who wants this? Can I trash this? Who does this belong to?”…

Hayley and Drew and little Lainey are having themselves a Merry Little Christmas!

 

They had Lainey’s check up yesterday and the doctor said she’s perfectly healthy and she’s gained the perfect amount of weight and so they don’t have to go back to the doctor until her one month appointment! So many answered prayers! God is good!

Today they took Lainey and the doggies on a walk!

Emma got all straigh A’s. too!

 How did my girls get so smart! I’m pretty sure they inherited my jeans! Ha ha! Ellie and Emma are so incredibly smart. They are the hardest workers I’ve ever known!  I’m so proud of them.

Keith and I grabbed lunch and went to Athens today to

 We wanted to visit with and give our big kids and grandkids gifts since we’re not seeing them for Christmas this year. We will spend Christmas Eve and day with the girls…

1st stop: Alex, Leah, Piper. 

She was so excited about her gifts and kicked her little feet and clapped her hands. She even crawled up and gave me the sweetest hug that completely melted my heart and then I handed her to Keith and she melted into him for a hug!

2nd stop: Drew, Hayley, and Lainey

She is perfect in every way! She was a little fussy when we got there, but these two parents acted like pro’s. She just needed her mama’s milk and her daddy Drew was so calm and burped and held her until she slept. Then they bundled her up and she slept soundly. So we left so the new parents could nap when she napped. 

Leah and Alex have been a godsend to them, bringing them everything they need for a new baby. Leah’s a NICU nurse and just had a baby girl so she is passing on info and passing down all their favorite things from Piper that she’s outgrown. Then they will pass it back when Alex and Leah’s baby boy is born.

We dropped by Tyler and Emily’s and saw the old truck Emily’s dad gave Tyler. They only had one car, so they are very grateful. We also saw the chicken coup they built and all their chickens and their rooster. We got to meet anll their fur babies. The one Tyler is holding has 6 fingers and toes. He looks like he has mittens on, and he’s so sweet. Emily was cooking collards and chicken when we got there. She is a great cook and makes everything from scratch. They both love their jobs and are doing well! Tyler just got a job at UGA and the benefits are awesome! Emily has been promoted several times and got a huge Christmas bonus!

Keith had his company Christmas party at the aquarium

 

Piper loves her tent!
