Christmas at the Gaithers

Since both Mother and Daddy are "gone", we try hard to hold our little family unit together. Gayle and Katie have moved to Wooster (outside of Conway) since Gayle remarried, and with work, school and other obligations for them, it's hard to see them as often as we would like.

Sara and her husband, Courtney, recently purchased their first home in Stuttgart. So, on this past Saturday, we all gathered at their house for our get-together. Julius was so sweet, and he is really getting into this gift thing! Christmas morning should be a blast at their house ... I really don't know who is more excited there -- Julius or Sara!!! Katie came sporting a new reddish hair color that looked great on her, and she introduced us to her boyfriend, B.J. Jessica and her children were there, as well.

It didn't take long for the kiddos to tear through the packages. That's the thing about gifts -- we worry, wrap, haul them around and in a split second, the thunder is gone. But the kids all had fun and that's what it's all about.

Thanks again, Sara and Courtney for having us in your home!
