Christmas 2004
     December 21st - 26th, 2004
     Christmas time again! This time I had just gotten back from visiting Alecia for her graduation. I took a few days in Raleigh and then headed to Atlanta to visit my sister and hang out with my brother on the way towards Kingsport. Well, due to weather and traffic, he got stuck on a long drive going very very slowly. He ended up catching a hotel in Alabama and then heading to Kingsport ahead of me. I visited with my sister for a bit and had a good dinner. I also got to see the newest addition to the family, baby Zane! The next day I headed up to Chatanooga to have lunch with my younger sister, Makayla and Carol. That was good. I also picked up and exchanged some gifts with her for the trip up to Kingsport.

     Kingsport was good this year. I got to see Mom and Dad pretty evenly. I also got to see some other folks that I hadn't seen in a while, like the Williams' family. I left an XBox at my Dad's place for them to play whenever. I also got Dad hooked on the game of Settlers. We played a few games of that one night. In turn I helped my Mom with some cooking and some cleaning around the house. It was a good visit this year. Better than previous years.

     After Kingsport, I headed back to Chatanooga. This time my brother stayed for a couple days and we got to hang out with Lauren and Mike for a while. We had some good food, did the whole presents thing and then played some games. I got Clyde and Mike hooked on the game of Settlers too. Lots of fun. We all took turns keeping Makayla entertained. After a day or so in Chatanooga, we all parted ways. Some to Atlanta, some to Houston and I headed out for Raleigh once again... next stop, the beach!

     Okay, it is a very rare occasion that I get the chance to sit with my two sisters and my brother. When the opportunity happened, someone grabbed my camera and took many many shots with it. I was going to go through and start deleting some of them, but I decided against it... So here they all are!
