On Christmas morning, we enjoyed presents from Santa and candy from our stockings before packing up and heading south to the Outer Banks for a week of extended family fun. (Extended both in time and in scope of family.)
On our way down, the only restaurant open for lunch was a Waffle House. Valerie noted that it was amazingly cockroach- and drug-free for a Waffle House. That was a happy fact.
When we got to the beach house, we immediately began divvying up the rooms, finding the ideal beds in the three-story mansion. However, that night, it began to snow...
We woke up to an unexpected winter wonderland by the seashore. And it was there that we found our perfect Christmas card picture.
Now, we took a few of the same picture, but later, we discovered that each picture had a misguided snowflake that ruined someone's nose or someone else's eyebrow. With the limited photo editing software, I thought it was impossible to fix. Until we copy and pasted my eyebrow from another picture. Can't even tell, can you?
My aunt and uncle's house by the beach a little farther north had gotten dumped on with snow as well, so on the 27th, we drove a few hours back to their place to play in over 8 inches of snow.
The night before, we had gotten a taste of the snow on the patio of the third story in the beach house.
That little snowman lasted a good four days (until Coco ate the carrot nose).
