We finally made it to Tri- Cities, picked up our luggage and headed to Greeneville. We got there around 1:30am and Olivia had JUST fallen asleep. We slept late the next morning and Olivia perked right up when she noticed something: presents!
We stayed around Greeneville and enjoyed the one day of warm weather we had that week. We got to visit with Michael's sisters and their families and Olivia LOVED all the attention she got from her cousins. Granny Stills came to visit, too! Then Michael and I got to go visit some friends by ourselves! It was a great New Year's and Olivia once again stayed up past midnight, ha!
We headed to Elizabethton Sunday to visit my family and I (naturally) forgot my camera. We had a great dinner with Lilo, Papaw, Granny, and Ben where Olivia once again enjoyed lots of attention and I succeeded in washing most of Lilo's dishes with hand soap. :) Then we headed up Stoney Creek, where Olivia was thrilled to discover more presents at Pappy's house! Pal came to visit, too and we had another great meal. We finally headed, stuffed, back to Greeneville. Thanks to everyone for the wonderful meals and gifts, we appreciate you all so much!
Monday, we headed to Wallabies, a new indoor playground in Johnson City. It was right up Olivia's alley:
We met Granny, Rachel, Maggie, Aubrey, and Aiden there, along with Rachel's parents and sister. My friend Megan and her 2 kids and 2 of her nephews met us there, too. We had quite a crew. The kids (literally) ran wild. This picture is a little fuzzy, but it's too cute not to share:
Maggie and Aubrey made sure to take care of Olivia. They helped her into the bounce houses:
And waited for her when she was a little slow:
Not sure where Aubrey was in this pic:
Aiden is the cutest little thing. He has a "cheesy" face for pictures:
I think this is my favorite video of Olivia. She was climbing up this set of blocks and jumping off. Mom, Pat, and I were cheering for her, so she started bowing:
We were cracking up!
We headed to Brett and Rachel's house to open gifts with the kids that night. Maggie and Aubrey's gifts were lost in the mail, along with a few others (that's a story in itself!). Luckily, I had ordered Aiden's online and had it shipped to their house.
One of my favorite pictures:
How did we get such sweet kids (and cute, too!)? :)
Our last full day was Tuesday and Billy, Kristy, Josh, Jacob, and Taylor came over to play. I went to dinner with friends and asked Billy to snap a few pictures while I was gone. He has a habit of getting interesting pictures, especially of Kristy (sorry!):
The rest were great!

Mamaw let Olivia decorate another gingerbread house, where (once again) most of it ended up in her mouth or on her face:
We had a great time, thanks for all the hospitality! Come visit us!
I took this video yesterday at gymnastics. It's not too impressive, but she looks really cute in her leg warmers:
Hope everyone is staying warm! We're having a snow day, too:
