A Jackson Christmas

We continued our "Holiday Tour 2012" down south to Jackson after a very short pit stop in Tupelo to unload and reload the car.  We made it just in time on Wednesday to open more presents!  We are so fortunate to have such wonderful families who love to spoil us.  We are truly thankful.  Morgan was thrilled to get a big girl bike from GaGa and Pop!  I think she rode it every day for the entire week!  She even rode it inside when the weather was bad.
 
We spent a few days there as well and I was able to get out and see some friends to make my trip extra special.  First I got to see Holly for a quick second when I met her at a gas station as they were leaving town.  Hey, I'll take what I can get!  The next day I went to Kathryn's new home to visit with her and her beautiful family and meet baby Parker!  He is precious and I got some serious cuddle time with him!  I loved getting to spend time with her whole family.  It makes me happy to see my friends so happy!  Next up was Stephanie where I just crawled right into bed with her!  When Brennan woke up from her nap she was confused to see a stranger in bed with her Mommy.  But I bribed her with a present and we were fast friends.  She is doing so well and I am incredibly proud of her and her patience!  I would be a mad woman by now but she has the best attitude and it is my goal to be more like her in the coming year.  We also got to have dinner with Jeff's high school friends and their wives.  I couldn't tell you the last time that entire group was together!  It was great to catch up with them since none of us live anywhere close to each other anymore.
 
One night Jeff and Sam went to the casino to have some fun.  So Morgan, Sissy and I had a girls night out too!  We went to Madison to have dinner and then took Morgan to see Monsters Inc at the movie theater.  We had a blast and I know Sissy enjoyed seeing Morgan as a big girl in the movies with her pop corn and sprite!
 
We had a wonderful time in Jackson!
