Christmas in Costume

I know mine's not much of a costume, but I'd been looking forward to wearing my new salvation army-find dress and red heels.

Tegan's costume cracks me up every time I look at a picture.

NC trip

It's been 3 years and I finally made it back to NC to visit the family. I saw almost all of the relatives, and 3 out of the 4 new baby cousins on the Pennell side of the family. Having little kids makes everything different, but in a good way. I was tired out after a short visit, I don't know how their parents survive full time. I drank all the sweet tea I wanted, had my fave southern foods (biscuits and gravy, fried okra, hush puppies) and had a great time. Next time it won't be 3 years, I promise!
