Vines Gardens with Elyse
Today while Jessica was out having lunch with Pa for her birthday present (they went to Steak & Shake and then Book Nook) and Mom was out grocery shopping, Elyse wanted to go to Vines Gardens to walk around and take some pictures. So we did! Here are sixteen of the pictures from our walk:
She wanted me to take some pictures from across the lake:
She thought this was a good pose for a picture:
She was amazed that there is a palm tree there now (near where the green house used to be). She thought it felt funny:
In mid-twirl:
She thought her doing a split on a bench would make a good picture:
She was please with her ability to balance on the Asian Garden's boardwalk's posts:
On our way home, we stopped at Publix and got little chocolate-covered donuts for a snack! (But I didn't take any pictures of them.)

Morning Walk at Vines Park
(I post these pictures mostly as a reminder to myself that I actually do get outside and go for walks sometimes, instead of just spending all my time on the sofa watching "Corner Gas" on Amazon Prime.)

Wynne-Russell House with Jessica
Today while Anna and Elyse were out at the ice skating rink, Jessica and I went to Book Nook in Lilburn to look at Nancy Drew books (she bought seven, I think), and then we went to the Wynne-Russell House to walk around and take pictures. Here are some of the pictures I took:
Ice Skating
Elyse wanted to go ice skating, so today Anna took her and one of her friends (and another friend met them there) to the Olde Town Conyers pavillion to the seasonal "Olde Town On Ice" skating rink. Anna texted me these pictures:

Christmas
As is our custom, we went to Mom and Dad's house (or Granny and Pa's, depending on who's describing it) for Christmas Eve, where we had our big supper, let the girls open one present, and started our traditional Christmas Eve jigsaw puzzle. Somewhere around nine o'clock we went home and managed to sleep for a very brief time before Elyse woke us up at 5:12 to see what Santa had brought. A little later went back to Mom and Dad's house for breakfast and to open Christmas presents.
