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:)
