After Christmas, things got back to normal (so to speak) rather quickly since Bryant went back to work on Monday. But we knew we'd have a little something interesting at end of the week. On Thursday (30th) Granny and Mamaw came up to do a little joint Christmas and birthday celebration. We had a nice little visit and it was cute seeing my grandmother meet Emerson for the first time. Emerson is the eighth of her nine great grandchildren and there are three more coming next year. Of course, Emerson is the best. We're not biased at all! :)

We celebrated my birthday on Friday (31st) by playing a bit before we got a little fussy. Bryant picked up Chili's take out in between storms and Emerson slept through the worst of the weather. There was rotation spotted at the Reservoir but most of the tornadoes were just a little Southeast of us. Nothing was going to wake Emerson from his sleep that evening though.
Today we've played a little and watched a little football. Bryant's been trying to teach Emerson how to say touchdown! I'm not sure that Emerson was excited over the MS State win. I think it was more the fact that daddy got up and ran around with him a little.
Go State!
Now, we're just about to take a bath and go back to sleep. ...And before we drift off to dream...It's been a good start to 2011 and there's nothing but blue skies to be seen.
Happy 1/1/11
I definitely need to head your way and see that sweet boy again. I am so glad your mother and grandmother got to spend some time with him. Glad the weather didn't bother Emerson. The tornado siren at the corner of Edgewater and St. Francis went off twice during the night so we weren't sleeping too well. Happy New Year!
