Celebrating the Holidays in Virginia (part one)
A few days after Christmas, we flew up to VA to visit Mark's family. While we were there we spent time with Grandparents, Great Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles and cousins, as well as neighbors and friends...ok let just say we got to see many people and what a joy it was! Jonathan and Luke especially enjoyed playing with their cousin Malachi. Upon arrival we celebrated Christmas again with a delicious meal, fun conversations and a time of exchanging gifts. On New Years Eve we got together with much of the extended family for a delightful time where we sang the twelve days of Christmas and participated in the annual Garrette gift exchange. Later on during our visit Rebecca (Mark's sister) had a wonderful Bridal Shower. Towards the end of our time in VA it began to snow and the boys were intrigued by this new falling, white, tasteless substance. Over all the time went by too fast but it was a great time spent with family of which we love dearly.
