Aunt Carrie's Visit

Aunt Carrie (Bert's sister) flew into Greenville from CA the Sunday before Christmas.  It was so fun getting to spend several days with her before she went to Jackson on Christmas!  She made it into town in time to see Emily's Play and Praise performance and Emily was soooo excited to have her there.  

Carrie is such a huge help to me when she visits.  There were so many times when she would entertain one or all of the girls while I worked on folding laundry, giving baths, or running an errand.  She loves our girls so much and just loves being with them.  It's encouraging to see.  

One afternoon Emily asked Aunt Carrie if she would braid her hair.  She actually did 3 braids....it was impressive!

We had such a great visit with Carrie and we're looking forward to seeing her again in about a week as she's coming back up for Claire's first birthday party.  Most years she travels back to LA by around New Years Eve, but this year she is delaying her trip back by a few days so that she can be here for Claire's first birthday party.  We're thankful for the way that she loves our family!!  We love you too, Carrie!
