Merry Christmas from O'Gradyland!

We've been on vacation for almost a week now and Molly has enjoyed every single second of it. I, unfortunately, was sick for a few days in the middle, but am back in action now and ready to enjoy the last few days of freedom!

This is probably the best possible place for me to be sick, because Molly has a full fan club ready and waiting to keep her entertained. I am pretty far down the list of favorites when we're here (seriously, I'm at the end)...but that's okay. I'm happy she has so much fun with her uncles, Aunt Corinne, and grandparents, playing hide and seek, dancing, laughing, and learning all about Superheroes, Star Wars, and The Ninja Turtles. Valuable knowledge she can take back to her friends at school :)

Here's a quick photo recap of our trip so far:
Our first stop was Roanoke, VA (Star City) to visit Uncle Joe
Selfie with Joe and Jon  on our Roanoke Star excursion -- the world's largest man-made illuminated star!
Making bead bracelets with Grandma
Back to Danville, VA -- making Christmas cookies with Uncle Joe
Decorating Christmas cookies with Uncle Jon
Opening presents from each other on Christmas Eve
(O'Grady tradition...Christmas Day is for Santa presents)
The brothers all received adult-sized Underoos. Ha! Jason is He-Man...my favorite

Can you feel the excitement?
Pure joy
The best part is that we still have a long weekend left. We'll probably see a movie today (another O'Grady tradition...the girls are going to see Into the Woods). Jason and I have a date night tomorrow (assuming I feel better, but I'm pretty sure I'm on the mend). And then we still have Saturday and part of Sunday to relax.

Merry Christmas to all. I hope wherever you are, your holiday is as happy as ours!

P.S. This will be my last time posting from Danville, VA...the O'Gradys are moving to Colorado Springs in Feb!
