Nana's Birthday

I am so behind on blog post. I hope I can catch up this weekend.  A few week's back we celebrated Nana's birthday.  We had a great steak dinner and just spent some time with her.  She got a lot of good stuff.  Of course P was all over the place.  That's nothing new though.  All in all it was a great birthday celebration.  We have lot's of birthday's around Christmas.  Hope everyone had a great Christmas!!

Christmas #1

A few days before Christmas we celebrated with my dad.  We ate dinner, watched movies and of course did some presents.  It was a fun,fun night.  Pax and Cory made some cookies and they were so good. P always loves when poppy, Cory and Courtney come and visit.  While they were here we watched the Griswold's, love that movie..It's a Christmas tradition by all account's.

Cookie Fun

We had some friends over and my mom to make cookies.  The boys loved it but of course lost interest really quick.  They decorated a few and then the rest was left up to us adults.  Never fear though, we had a blast doing it:)  The boys also exchanged presents so of course that was the hit of the night.  P got a little laptop and he has played with it so much.  I love the holiday's and all the fun and excitement it brings.

Helper in the Kitchen

P loves to help in the kitchen.  The other morning he helped me make some blueberry muffins.  Don't mind that he is wearing Halloween jammie's.  Hey, it's what he picked out.  It's so fun to watch him help in the kitchen.  He gets all into stirring and pouring. My sweet little boy!! 

Can't believe it's almost Christmas!!

Gingerbread Fun

A few weekends ago we went to aunt Stacey's house.  We ate dinner and made a gingerbread house.  P had  the best time making it.  I just knew he would be eating all the candy but he actually decorated.  P had wonderful help with daddy, aunt kk and aiden.  All of them had a great time.  It really puts you in the Christmas spirit.  We all had a great time!!!  Can't believe it's almost time for Christmas:)

Into the house

 Hey, what are you doing

Rocky Top

The weekend before Thanksgiving we surprised my brother with a trip to Knoxville.  To say he was surprised was a under statement.  It was fun and very special.  This was his Christmas present and he fore sure loved it!!  We all had a blast and got to see a lot of Knoxville.  We ate good food and took in a very fun football game. I am not a fan of UT but it was a very good game.  The game went into over time.  Such a great time and can't wait to go back.

Trim The Tree

The day after Thanksgiving we put the tree up.  P has loved it and will not leave the ornament's alone.  We left the non-breakables on the bottom.  Needless to say the bottom of the tree in bunched up with ornaments since he moves them 10x's a day.  Oh well at least he has fun.  Although he has gotten in trouble a few time's for being to rough with the tree.  He also loves the manager and playing with baby JESUS and the lamb.  Those are the 2 he wants every single time.  We have really had fun talking to him about JESUS's upcoming birthday.  That's the main reason:)

 So into the tree

 Concentration at it's best



Happy Late Thanksgiving

I know this is late but we have been all over the place.  We had a great Thanksgiving.  So much to be thankful for.  Especially those two below:) I forgot to take pictures this year, I am so sad. No pictures of Thanksgiving for 2011..BOO!!!  I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving with there loved one's.

A sneak peek at our family pictures. I think some might be seeing these on Christmas cards but I haven't decided yet.

Love this boy so much.Picture is great, he just will not smile when i want.lol

 Fun little family picture

Our 1st fur baby

Our first little fur baby has been feeling a little under the weather lately.  She is getting old and I hate seeing her not feel her self.  She is so sweet and cuddly.  Daisy is fond of pax especially when he has food..lol

So I thought I would give daisy some love on the blog today:)

Not much to say

I need to get better at taking pictures. I have been slacking so badly..So excited though, I am off for the next week. I get to spend lot's of time with my little boy and I can't wait.  We are going to have a blast!!

P in front of a painted tiger(we went and watched Jacob with at his fall baseball game)

Pax and the camera

All of a sudden pax wants to have his picture taken.  He loves to walk around and take pictures with my little point and shoot as well.  It's so funny that he wants us take his picture, I guess he is use to seeing the camera out.  It's not all the time but I love it when he does want me to take it.  Plus I usually get a smile that way.

We haven't had much going on so there hasn't been much to blog about.



Lost pics from this summer

I have a little point and shoot camera I keep in my purse.  Well I forgot to upload the pictures all summer.  This weekend I finally got around to it.  It was fun to see the pictures because I had forgot about them.

Not to much going on lately so I haven't had much to blog about.

Poppy's Birthday

We celebrated my day's birthday on October 9th.  October is the month for birthday's in our families.  My brother,sister and dad came out for lunch.  Plus, the steelers were playing the titans.  My dad and bro are huge steelers fan's. The hubby and I are Titans fans.  It was a house divided for the day.  It was a good time for my dad's birthday.

Mammaw's Surprise Party

A few weekends back the family had a surprise 75th party for mammaw.  She was so surprised!!!  It was such a fun day.  The look on her face was priceless.  She had no clue, so that made it so much more fun.  Usually the surprises are told..  It was great seeing everyone and the weather was perfect.  Such a special day for a wonderful lady!!  We love our mammaw:)

Halloween Fun-Buzz Lightyear

We had a very fun Halloween.  The night before Halloween we carved our pumpkin and roasted seeds. P wasn't so sure about the inside of the pumpkin. He touched but wouldn't really help with it.  Joe is so good at the pumpkin carving.  He did a haunted tree this year, it turned out really good.  Aunt KK cane over and went trick or treating the next night.  I was so glad too, the hubby got sick and couldn't go with us. P loved going door to door and even tried to go in a few houses. lol!!

The fun starts

 Um, what is this stuff?
