Christmas in New York at Jason's Mom's Home

We went to Mom Cordell and Michael's after our Christmas day with Dad Hall. There we relaxed, went to see "The Pursuit of Happyness", showed lots of pictures, and enjoyed being together. We were really blessed to be there when Grandma Cordell was up. It was really good to see her. Simeon was also staying downstairs in the apartment, so we got to see him too. (He helped set this blog up!) We had a delicious Christmas meal and then spent time opening gifts. We had made two mugs with a picture of us holding the pregnancy test. Mom Cordell's mug read, "Merry Christmas Grandma!" When she opened it, she swapped with Grandma Cordell, thinking we had mixed up the mugs. With Michael laughing and video taping with his new camera, Jason persuaded her that that was her mug! She sat straight up and said, "Do you have an announcement to make?!?!" The hugs and screams and laughter after, were priceless, as our exciting news was shared with everyone. Grandma Cordell opened her mug after, which said, "You'll be a GREAT Grandma!"
