These Are a Few of My Favorite Things

My my my, what a Christmas we had! Here are a few of my favorite things - or memories - from Christmas 2008.

Grove Park Inn, Asheville, North Carolina ~ Where we stayed on our First Anniversary Trip!



The Biltmore Estate, which we toured during our stay in Asheville



A tree full of presents before the opening madness takes place





My precious hubby sleeping soundly on Christmas morning. I tried to wake him up, and he rolled over and said, "How bout you go and tell me how it was?" Later in the day, he did not remember saying that at all!


Gizmo, the Slocum's dog, got toys for Christmas. A few hours later, his green bone was all chewed up. Here he fell asleep with stuffing all around him and his beloved carrot a few feet away!






Need I say more? My hubby and my niece together in one shot!



My precious sisser! Okay, so I look like I'm a little happy or excited to see her! Step off!

Given our many blessing of 2008, I cannot wait to see what 2009 will bring!

I hear really amazing things about Asheville. In all the years I lived in NC, I never made it there. Boo. Looks like you had a lovely holiday - yay!
