To sweet home Alabama, ready or not, here we come.
For Christmas at Nani's is second to none!
She was ready and waiting there with Papa Ron,
For the Burtram's and Mersing's to hurry up and come on!
More presents were waiting when we arrived,
but first a group picture of the grandsons, all FIVE!
But posing these boys is a tough thing to do,
And after much effort, here's the best I could do!
At Nani's house, whoever has on a Santa hat helps hand out the gifts!
My boys and their servant hearts...
Sam tried a new technique, claiming gifts by sitting on them.
All the gifts are handed out and we were ready to open.
Why yes, that is Southern Miss winning their bowl game in the background.
Go Eagles! SMTTT!
Ethan was thrilled about his Alabama pajama pants.
Kayden, on the other hand, was not so thrilled about his Tupperware box.
He almost went to bed without seeing what was actually inside.
Cameron had the biggest gift under the tree....
Sam's gift was a singing, dancing, musical instrument playing Elmo, just perfect!
It turns out Cam got a tricycle, Kayden's "Tupperware" box was filled with new
binoculars and a set of walky-talkies (which would come in handy on the next road trip.)
Elmo was a big hit, but Sam immediately
took the drums and microphone for himself.
Cameron was so excited about his helmet, he went ahead
and put it on before we could get it out of the package!
But, perhaps the best gift of all, was Michael's Auburn hat and coffee mug given
to him with gritted teeth Christmas love from Papa Ron, the avid Alabama fan.
At Nani's house for Christmas Eve we would stay,
then it's back on the road to Mississippi on Christmas Day.
