The kiddos had a great Christmas. JD got a little 4 wheeler from Uncle Hal and Aunt Sus's crew and I am going to try and post the video of him riding it. We had lots of fun with family and we are not done yet! We are having mom's Christmas this weekend.

This is for my nephews, don't tell them:)


This is miss j's. While I had my machine humming I thought I would make her a shirt. I call it her charlie brown skating shirt!

and cue Van Halen...

JUMP!!
We got the kiddos a trampoline for Christmas. We decided to let them have it today so while we were at Auntie's making cookies (which I forgot my camera so Auntie will have to share those pics) for Santa, Daddy was busy setting it up. Nate said " How did you know this is what we wanted?" Well we are just good that way:)
Merry Christmas!!

Today was Granny's Christmas at our house. Lots of soup, sandwiches, cousins and presents!

I got my camera in the mail today!! I am so excited. Hubs has been out of town ALL week and we are all counting the minutes until he gets home tonight. So since I haven't taken any new pictures I will leave you with our Christmas card picture since I am finally getting them in the mail:)

Well..

We were in Gatlinburg with the in-laws last week. It was a great trip but the first night we were there my sweet baby's sippy cup of milk spilled in my bag and my camera soaked up most of it!! I am really bummed that it has died right here at Christmas but hopefully "Santa" will help a girl out:)
Until then
May you and yours find all the joy of this holiday season!!

Party, Party

Whew! This has been a busy few days. We hosted Thanksgiving this year for my grandmother. So Sunday we had about 14 people here. Nana brought a cake to kick off Jenna's birthday week. I loved having everyone here. It does make me feel like I am officially a grown up when everyone is now coming to your house:)


Little brother was having a great time sampling Barbie's dress.


" Clark" carving the bird.

This was cake #2. As you can see little brother is quite interested in this one too.

Sweet Kinley

H loves to craft. So I gave her my scrapbook tote and said craft away girlie!

Yesterday we had Jenna's ballet class over to celebrate. We had a tea party complete with tutu's, jewelry, fingernail painting, and lip gloss.

All the little tutus (daddy even helped me make one!)

The china was from the set that I played with when I was a little girl and the other part was from my wedding china.

The birthday girl

So excited to be 4!

JD found a friend with the cupcakes!

The after party crew!

A fun surprise

I just love this reindeer. I know that I just posted that I am nervous sewing for other people but when it is a surprise it makes it fun! I am seeing a sweet friend of mine this weekend and she has grandkids that are 8 weeks apart and both just turned one.

I wish I could show you how clean my kitchen is! Auntie came today and we scrubbed and scrubbed. I am trying to talk her into coming every week. We have to make a Hobby Lobby run this afternoon so it will be a Chic-fil-a night. I just have to keep that sparkle in my kitchen for a little longer:)

I love this font that Auntie had on her blog the other day. It does take forever to stitch but I think it is too cute on these two.



Not to worry, it hasn't been all play and no work around here!

Speaking of work...

A friend of mine from church asked me to make her kiddos some holiday shirts. It makes me a nervous wreck to do this for other people!

I am hosting my grandmother's Thanksgiving here this Sunday so I have to get off here and start cleaning up my mess:)

This week has flown by! We have been so blessed with great weather and we have taken advantage of it. Wednesday we went to Moma's. Granddaddy and I took the trio down to the lake while Nana was driving the bus. As we approached the boardwalk outside the visitors center a cottonmouth kindly stated that he was there first and we agreed! So we went down the road to another pier. I have a few more cute pictures but it is almost naptime here and I have a date with my sewing machine. Happy weekend:)
