This past weekend we headed I40 west-bound to hang out with Trey's family and then do our annual Christmas exchange with Cathy's, Trey's mom, side of the family. While in Hickory we were able to pick up some furniture that we ordered. Can't wait for it all to be finished and in our home. Cathy took me to a bunch of fun shops to get more Christmas decorations and ornaments. I love collecting Christmas ornaments. We had a relaxing evening in Hickory and were able to exchange gifts with Taylor and her boyfriend, Andrew.
Bree and Cam (baby King's future cousin and buddy).

Saturday we all piled in the grocery-getter and headed to Kannapolis. This year was different from years past, as we had our gathering at Mawmaw and Pawpaw's house. Trey and I have been blessed to each have 1 set of living grandparents. Over the past few weeks his grandfather, Pawpaw, has had a decline in his health. Pawpaw Rex is an amazing man. I have been blessed to share many special occasions and holidays with him. He has beautiful voice, wonderful sense of humor, and an unmeasurable love for his family and our Lord. We are very grateful for the time we were able to spend with Pawpaw, Mawmaw and the rest of the McCall family on Saturday. When we returned home on Sunday afternoon, we learned that Pawpaw had gone to be with the good Lord. Baby King will be Pawpaw's second great-grandchild, and he/she is going to be so blessed to have a special guardian angel.Pawpaw,
We love you; We miss you; We know that you are in a better place!
