Lunch with Great-Grandmother
Before we headed home yesterday we joined the family for lunch at my grandmother's. We ate in the big dining room at her senior apartments. I think everyone enjoyed a nice lunch and the kids did a lot of exploring. Noni took them on a walk of every single floor to see the decorations on the doors. Then they found all the Christmas trees and decorations on the first level. I think the kids had a really good time. After lunch we headed home to the hills. M has to work today. He plans to work unti 2:00 p.m. After that we'll make our way back across the mountains to Noni's.

We'll celebrate Christmas Eve with them and some of Dad's family. Tomorrow morning we'll wake up at Noni's and see what Santa brought Emma and her cousins. We'll enjoy breakfast with them and then hit the road for home again late morning or early afternoon. Next stop is Grandma's, to celebrate with M's family. We'll exchange presents with them and have supper there. Finally, on Christmas night M, Emma and I will celebrate our Christmas together. The day after Christmas Noni, Popi, Uncle B. and the kids will come to our house to visit.

Thursday I'll go back to work to get some rest :)
