Merry Christmas from the Tevepaugh Family!
I hope you and yours have a wonderful holiday season filled with love and cheer! We have a busy couple of weeks ahead--full of Christmas fun and festivities!
Thursday night: Our annual Christmas gathering and gift exchange with our church Connections group. Looking forward to friends, fellowship, and gag gifts galore!
This weekend: I have a baby shower to attend for a friend who is expecting a precious baby boy in February. Our church friends are hosting a get together at their home on Saturday evening to view Christmas lights at their across-the-street neighbor's house. We are going to put Sawyer in some cute Christmas jammies and head over there for a bit before dropping him at home with Will's parents. We are going to an engagement party/oyster roast for dear friends of ours who are getting married in March. On Sunday night, we are going to the Riverbanks Zoo to see the Lights Before Christmas. Sawyer loves the lights on our Christmas tree, so I am sure he will have a great time looking at the all over the zoo!
Next week: On Monday, I have my work Christmas lunch. We are going to Grecian Gardens for a great meal and ornament exchange. I really like this fun tradition. It is nice to get out of the office and spend time with co-workers.
Christmas week: On Sunday, the 23rd, we are getting together with Will's family and the Varn family to have a little Christmas time with them. Kole Varn is the adorable little boy who spends his days with Will's mom and Sawyer. They are great family friends! Christmas Eve, we go out to my dad's in Camden to eat lunch and exchange presents. We will spend a good part of the day with them before heading back to town for church. We haven't officially decided, but I think we will be going to church with Will's family this year. After church, we head over to dear family friends of my family. They host a drop-in on Christmas Eve every year. We truly enjoy spending this special time with them, and exchanging gifts. Christmas morning, we will be up bright and early! I am so looking forward to spending this time with Sawyer on his first Christmas! I know he is too young to truly understand the meaning on Christmas, but I enjoys it non-the-less! After having our little family Christmas, we will head over to my mom's house to have our time with them. We will have breakfast and open gifts. Then, off we go to Will's parent's house to do the same thing with them!! We will head up to Chapin to the lake to have Christmas lunch with Will's aunt, uncle, cousins, and grandparents. We will spend the rest of the afternoon there, before heading home to crash from exhaustion. We will be up and at 'em early the next morning to head to Greenville to spend the day with my mom's family and celebrate with them. In previous years, we have gone up there on Christmas afternoon and spent the night, but we thought that was too much to do in one day now that we have Sawyer to cart around. I'm glad that we will still get a chance to see everyone in Greenville though. Wow...what a busy time of year!!! I'm glad I will have the rest of the week off from work to recover! I don't have to go back to work until January 2nd. Oh, I left out the part about is going to Edisto! We are going on Friday after Christmas and staying until Monday, New Year's Eve! We don't currently have plans to celebrate, but we are thinking of having a small, low-key get together at our house. Doesn't that just make you tired from just reading what all we have planned...not sure we know we are getting ourselves into, especially now that we have Sawyer! I'm sure everything will be wonderful! I am definitely looking forward to spending time with friends and family, and making precious memories!
