Christmas is Here...

...and the Lairsey's are busy, busy, busy (as is everyone else, I know!).  This weekend,  I went to the Christmas Brunch at Grace with my mom, sisters, and Karla.  Tomorrow, we leave to celebrate Christmas with the Lairsey family in Blackshear.  We are also going to have Twin Birthday Party #1 :)  Eve is spending the night with her cousins (at TayTay's house) on Monday night (just for fun) and then going to Aunt Karla's in Gainsville from Tuesday til Friday morning.  Thursday night, Eric and I are celebrating Christmas with our youth leaders at Cadwallader's Restaurant...that will be a blast.  Friday night, we are all spending the night at the Hilley's...Dad rented a 15 passenger van for us to all load up in to look for Christmas lights!!  Yay!!!  We'll do adult Christmas Friday night after kids go to bed, then in the morning, we'll do family Christmas with all the kiddos.  The plan is to have Twin Birthday Party #2 at lunchtime, then head to the NICU to see our favorite nurses and drop off some goodies.  Lauren came up with this idea, and I think it should definitely be a tradition for us.  I always want the girls to remember what Christmas miracles they were!!  After that, we're coming home for a nap, then Mrs. Nadean and Karla are coming in town to have Twin Birthday Party #3.  They are cooking dinner and we'll have cake... then rush off to our Christmas Eve Service at In Focus.  We'll spend Christmas Eve Night at home with our babies, then have a family Christmas with them on Christmas morning.  After that, it is off to Grace for a Christmas Church Service, home for a nap, then back to the Hilley's for a fancy Christmas Dinner.  Finally, on Monday, we head to Anderson to celebrate Milam Family Christmas  :)  I love this time of year!!!  Lord, let us be reminded to stop and be thankful for the REASON we celebrate Christmas.  Our hope, our joy, our peace, and our life is in YOU.  

Merry Christmas, 2011!!!
