We spent Christmas in West Virginia. Christmas eve we were with Shannon’s family in Boomer. We had a great meal. Ada was happy to meet her great aunts.
We stayed in a hotel. On Christmas morning I woke up super excited, because Santa came. He brought Ada a cotton monster. From her mommy and daddy she got two classic golden books, The Pokey Little Puppy, and There is a Monster at the end of this Book. We opened presents under the tree in the lobby of the hotel. Linemen from the Southeast were there to restore energy to West Virginia. They were sad to be away from their families, so they borrowed ours.
We spent Christmas Day with Shannon’s mother’s family. Ada got to meet her great grandma and a slew of great aunts and uncles. We had an amazing ham dinner. It was a beautiful day and an amazing first Christmas for Ada.
