Playing Catch Up #1--Mom's Visit/Five Generations

My mother and step-father came to visit in November around Thanksgiving. While they were here, we spent a lot of time at my Aunt Pam and Uncle Doug's house. My grandparents (mom's parents) were here from Florida as well. It was nice to have everyone together. The last several years, this has been the norm in November--that the out of towner's visit that time of year--and I really look forward to it!

Uncle Doug was playing with Chris. To coax him into the living room, Uncle Doug crawled and hollered for Chris to come with him. It was really cute, so I took a picture :)

















Since my mom and Perry wouldn't be able to see us at Christmas, they brought us our Christmas gifts to open in November. The red present was mine, but Chris was really into checking out presents by that time! He got a "Little Snoopy" pull toy and some cute clothes from his Grandma and Grandpa Tibbits.






















While my mom and Grandma were in town, we took a 5 generations photo. In this photo is my Great Grandmother Hollingsworth, Grandma Dawson, mother, Chris, and I. When I was around 18 months old (I think), there was a five generations photo taken of my Great Great Grandmother Devore, Great Grandma Hollingsworth, Grandma Dawson, mother, and I. One of these days, I'll have to get around to making a copy of that photo and scrapbooking it next to this one.
