James Turns 23!

We love each other, We hate each other,
this is the bond between a sister and a brother.
When we were young we drove each other up the wall,
now we are older and here to catch one another when we fall.

Today my little brother turned 23. We all went over to NaNa and PaPa's to celebrate. I made James a classic Pac Man cake and Rose helped her Uncle blow out the candles. After dinner and cake the girls and snowball took a ride on Clint's back and we all hung out in the living room.

Our New Years celebration was GREATNESS!! This is the first New Years since Clint and I have been together that we have spent without me being pregnant or us having the kids. We were excited to spend New Year's night together. First we had a nice quiet dinner together at Blue Goose and then we were off to meet a few friends in uptown. We were surrounded by great people and we both had a great time

Christmas and Christmas Eve!

Christmas Eve at our house was so much fun. We had MeMe, NaNa, PaPa, Uncle James, Uncle Nash, Aunt Heather, Carson, and baby Cali over to celebrate. We kicked of the night with homemade Tamales, rice, beans, ham, potato casserole, and lots of cookies. After we ate the kids all sat down at the kitchen table and made cookies for Santa.






Afterwards we celebrated our Christmas Eve with MeMe... she really does go all out for holidays.






and of course she out did herself with Kaylee's room and with her gift to Sean. He opened a box with a wallet in it that was full of paper shavings and one dollar bills. He was so excited to sit down and count the money somewhere that he could hardly contain himself.




While Cali kept her eyes wide open with amazement from the wrapping paper chaos that surrounded her...

Christmas Eve ended with the kids entertaining themselves with Sean pulling them around on a blanket across the floor... all this new stuff, and all they really needed was a blanket and an imagination. :)


The kids woke up Christmas morning sooo excited to see what he had brought, they checked his cookies and milk tray and opened their stockings. They were so excited.




Then we went ahead and opened presents....








Even snowball hung out with us Christmas morning... especially after Rose decided she was going to still his crate.




We finished up Christmas morning with a big batch of homemade donuts and bacon. :)
