Frozen

Tonight mamaw Brenda took you to see the movie Frozen. This is when you fell in love with the soundtrack and had to have it for Christmas.  I had already seen the movie on Monday when we took our kids on the field trip so while  you and mamaw watched the movie I went Christmas shopping for presents gift bags and nother last-minute things. We also went to McDonald's and found out they had Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles toys.

Christmas Play

This year we had three different youth Christmas plays. The little kids listened to a story and interacted by placing ornaments on a Christmas tree.

Then your age group read lines that spelled out Merry Christmas

Finally our teen boys did a silent play using cards depicting their thoughts of what the people of the nativity scene would have been thinking. 

Earlier today we had our adult Christmas Cantata and are lunch with the Funderburks. We had a blessed day.

Today you stayed with Mawmaw  and Pawpaw Porter while I took my seventh grade math team Vestavia Hills High School for a math competition. We placed first and had several students get individual trophies.

Lego Robotics & SEC Championship

Today I took the Lego robotics team to Arab Alabama to compete in a robotics competition. We placed second overall. Today was also the SEC championship game were auburn played Missouri. It was a hard fought game but Auburn won and gets to go to the national championship in January. You stayed with Mamaw and Pawpaw Porter. You met us at backyard Burger because uncle David was nice enough to drive you to Cullman.

Iron Bowl

Today Auburn shocked the nation by beating number one ranked Alabama. It was unbelievable. The last second of the game Auburn caught a missed field goal attempt by Alabama and ran it 100 yards back for the win at the last second. It was phenomenal.

Carnes Thanksgiving

Today we had close to 100 people from the Carnes family show up at the family life Center for Thanksgiving. Everyone came including uncle John, aunt Janie and uncle Rick from up north. It was a great time of fellowship and seeing the family.
