Grammie and Gramps came for a fun visit to NC which started with
celebrating Gramp's 70th birthday the day that they arrived. I had fun
spending time with Grammie and Gramps at our house. Even though it was the beginning of December it could have
practically been Christmas because all of the pieces were in place! We
went to see Christmas lights at Hill Ridge Farm, complete with snow and
rides down the tube slide. Then, we saw a spectacular Bulls, Bells and
Barrels rodeo, complete with stubborn bulls that had to be roped to
leave the ring. Following that, we took in a festive Wake Forest
Christmas parade, complete with more candy canes that we can carry! And we finished our glorious visit
with them by opening presents and waking up the following morning to 8
inches of snow on the ground! It was completely magical and it felt like
Christmas morning!
I was sad to see Grammie and Gramps leave, but luckily they were able to drive with all the snow! Cora and I spent a good part of the week playing in what was left of the snow after it rained. I just love playing in the snow! Finally, the snow melted and it was time for more fun Christmas activities. One day we drove to Busch Gardens Williamsburg to see Christmas Town! The lights were so much fun to see although I don't know if I'm ready for all of the amusement rides yet! Even the pirate ship ride was a lot to handle! I enjoyed seeing all the shows and thought that is was crazy that we drove home that night and were up at midnight! The next evening we went to a show for kids called Santa's Enchanted Workshop. That certainly got me in the mood for Christmas, and not a few days later a letter from Santa arrived in the mail. I was so excited to see the letter, that I had been good that I started screaming and throwing my hands into the air. I managed to simultaneously smack Mom AND Cora right in the face! Hope Santa didn't know I did that! I'm looking forward to Christmas now - only one week to go!
