"If you want to be happy in a million ways, For the holidays - you can't beat home, sweet home!"

Just one week ago Zoey and I were waiting patiently for Timmy to get off work so we could make our trip home for the holidays. We had a very nice, but busy visit home f0r a few days and enjoyed our time with both family and friends.

Christmas Eve we enjoyed catching up with friends at the Walter's Annual Christmas Eve Open House, visited with Timmy's parents, had dinner with mom and Reed, and went to visit Annie & Zac in their new beautiful home in downtown Richmond before heading to church with mom. Christmas Day we opened gifts with mom and Reed, went to the Duke's for Christmas brunch, made a short visit to the Garfinkel family and then headed back to mom's for the rest of the day. That evening we enjoyed a great dinner mom made and were glad Timmy's parents were able to come join us. The day after Christmas we did a little post-Christmas sale shopping then headed over to Timmy's parents to celebrate Christmas with them and Jonathan, Mary Katherine, and Benjamin. Sunday we got up and had breakfast with Timmy and his family and then hit to road back to Charleston. It was a short but fun trip home and we are both grateful we had the opportunity to spend the holidays at home. Below are a few pictures from our holiday adventure.

Christmas with the Marsh's

This afternoon I am headed to Atlanta to visit my friend Tara and to go to the Chick-Fil-A Bowl to cheer on the Hokies tomorrow night as they take on Tennessee. Should be a good game and hopefully it will end well for the Hokies, I have been to lots of Bowl games and we have never won a single one I have attended, lets pray that this one ends different. Hope you and your family have a safe and fun New Year's Eve where ever you may be!
