A Christmas To Remember!

The year of Terrill Christmas was unexpectedly changed this year and we spent our Christmas at the hospital, as I had noted earlier. Well my sisters and mommie picked up and came down to see us the day after Christmas and it absolutely made my day. My fam spent a beautiful Christmas at Ashley's gorgeous newly renovated home and were on the phone with me every minute to let me know that they missed us-and we were missing them! Can't believe we all finally tried Skype for the first time and I got to see everyone on Christmas Eve and my emotions completely took over as soon as I saw my sisters' faces. I also got to hear sweet Gage Gettys read "Twas the Night Before Christmas" and it was simply precious-did I mention he is only 5!! What a great reader!!

We have a fun tradition where my mom gets us matching pajamas each year and this year she did not disappoint! She gave me my PJ present to open on Christmas Eve and we all talked on Skype and were wearing our matching pj's. Well the day after Christmas they all drove to Atlanta (Julie and the Allens from Nashville and Mom, Ashley, Tracee and Alli from Greenville). They showed up and were all wearing the matching pajamas! It was adorable and unforgettable. Piedmont Hospital experienced a Terrill Take-over and I am sure it will not be soon forgotten. We were able to watch the Jags on TV and had so much fun. Thank goodness Nurse Ashley was there to help the nurses do their job, my iv was beginning to be a pain, so she asked them to remove it. Thanks Nurse! Julie and the kids came back by the hospital on their way home and completely stocked my room with the most wonderful food! This hospital food is getting pretty tiring, but thanks to my sissies and mommie, I am in good hands. Thanks Julie for all of the groceries! Baker is loving it!!! And thanks to my Mommie who has been cooking my favorite foods and keeping me company. She is the best!!!

Yes, Christmas 2010 went a little different then planned but I am so lucky to have such wonderful family and friends. We have created many memories and can't wait to tell Baker all about it! As Kenny and Dolly once said..."You make this a Christmas to Remember"!
