Christmas with my family

We are visiting my Mom and sister in Georgia and having a wonderful time! I am tired , tired, tired though. We drove down late last night so the kids would sleep most of the way, got in at 2am and Jack and Anderson were so excited it took me until 3 to get them back to sleep. Then the little stinkers woke up at their usual early time. But, at least we did not have to endure much screaming from Anderson who does not like to be in his car seat for very long.
We went to visit my Dad and Grandma today. My Grandma has Alzheimers, but it was so good to see her. I am saddened by the illness she suffers. It has to be one of the most tragic things to watch a loved one endure. She does not know who I am anymore, but still knows who my Dad is. At least we have that.
Tomorrow we have Christmas Eve with my extended family. It will be so good to see them all.
So, if I don't get back on here before Christmas, Merry Christmas everyone! May you all be blessed this year.
I can't help but think about what next Christmas will bring for my family. Much joy and anticipation, I imagine!
