The Wednesday before Christmas I kissed mom and dad goodbye and we took the hour drive to the inlaws. I know this is going to be another fun filled time, even more so because their first grand baby is cooking in the oven. The first thing on the agenda is a little shopping before going home for lunch. You would have thought my hubby was the pregnant one as he made us stop on the way for a hot dog because he was starving. LOL, it was a funny moment I wanted to remember, I digress. The Minors raved over the baby bump and even put up a stocking for pumpkin, which was blue, I'm not sure what that color choice was about. ;-)
The next day they planned a party so we could meet some of their good friends. It was a delicious soupfest and no different than usual gatherings at the Minor's house plenty of food, plenty of love and toasts, and countless prayers.
That evening we were going to freeze with the Kirsch and Cody families. My best friend and little sister at "Ice" at the Gaylord Palms. All I have to say is 9 degrees, surrounded by millions of pounds of beautifully carved ice.
I was a little salty when I couldn't slide down the ice slide, sorry Pumpkin, because I'm sure you'll slide down much more dangerous slides in your lifetime. I wanted to show you a good time...LOL! It was really wonderful catching up. Always laugh the hardest with my girls, good friends last forever!
The rest of the trip was just as fulfilling, spent some quality time with my favourite little sister and met her new beau. She's going to be engaged by summer, mark my words people. I'll skip around to Christmas morning...
Big things popping! We opened gifts and everyone felt the love that went into the choices. It was my first Christmas Day with the Minors and pumpkin and I had a blast.
They treat me like a daughte/sister and I can't ask for anything more!
