Plans Change

Before my family and I went to Florence, we sat down talked about all the traveling my sister and I were doing. And we decided that it might be best for us not to go to Philly but Florence, Asheville (to see the Biltmore) and Greenville were still on the agenda. But who knows plans may change again. 

As of recently, the family and I are home after visiting the Grandparents in Florence and a wonderful vacation to the Biltmore. First, lets take a glance at what happens when the Turbeville family get together. My sister and I headed down early to start all the baking extravaganza.

First you bake the cookies

Next, you eat the cookies

Then you decorate the ones you and your grandpa missed

My Grandpa help decorate (aka: add peanut butter, icing and dump sprinkles and marshmallows on all the cookies. haha.)

I got fed up with mess I was making from the spoon so I used the next best thing, MY FINGERS!

Yep, my Grandparents have an old record player that still works

Mr. & Mrs. Turbeville :)

Going to Christmas Eve Service (to which we arrived 30 minutes late haha.)

Check out those shirts, just sayin'

We had a wonderful Christmas, just cooking, baking and spending time with each other. After all, God gave us the best Christmas gift EVER! And my family and I did our best to honor Him in our words and actions. It seems that family is the hardest to show love too but when you allow Christ's love to flow though you, it is much easier.

I hope you had a very Merry Christmas and a even Happier New Year. Pictures from the Biltmore will come soon until then please check out this very appropriate song video on Christmas cookies:
