It’s the most wonderful time of the year…

Our schedules are always busy and if you know me, you know I love to be at home.  (I don’t really make the best Mayor’s wife because of this, by the way.)  If I can get out of an event or party, I  sometimes do.    I love people and I love to socialize, but over the past couple of years, I find such comfort in being in my home with my babies.  I hate to leave them.  (Secretly, however, I love the busyness and excitement of this time of year.)  That being said, we do have lots of events that we all attend together, which is great!  Today is a prime example.  After the Hartsville Christmas Tree lighting last night, today we have…

10:30  Hartsville Christmas Parade  (Daddy is in charge, as he has been for several years.  McCanless has chosen to ride on the THA float.  Mary Clare and I will walk with Daddy as the Mayor’s family.)

10:00-1:00 Downtown Market Place (We’ll stop by at some point.)

12:30 Mel’s family reunion at his grandmother’s house

1:00 McCanless to Coker College for Cheer camp

2:00 Mel is performing a wedding ceremony  (Several people have been crazy enough to ask him to do this over the past couple of years.)

4:00-6:00 Mel has a visitation at the Funeral Home

4:00  SEC Championship Game USC vs Auburn Let’s not even talk about that.  I still love my Gamecocks!

5:30 McCanless will perform at half-time of the Coker College Girls Basketball game.

7:00  Mel and I have a wedding to attend here in Hartsville.  (Girls will stay with Mimi and Bapa, until I pick them up bright and early for church.)

After meeting about the children’s Christmas Eve service at church tomorrow, I think we’ll crash!
