CHRISTMAS!!!!

We had a wonderful Christmas in Mississippi despite the crazy weather of 77 degrees!

We had to stay warm by the fire cause...brrr....it was SO cold! NOT!

YAY Santa came!!!

I love the mess...one of my favorite parts of the morning!

Andersen was so cute in my shoes!

Precious little Harper and her little butter ball rolls!

Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas - part 2

This weekend John and Heather had a church retreat so I ended up babysitting most of the weekend which was quite fun but very tiring watching ALL 4 kids!! But we had a good time watching movies, cuddling, making grilled cheese sandwhiches, playing in the playroom, going to see the big tree at Samford...they loved it!

Jacks loves holding Ireland but I think she looks as big as he does in this picture haha!

But then she got a little wiggly and this was his face...HELP!!!!

We played in our pajamas most of the morning on Saturday!! (Mainly because I didn't have enough hands to change them all ha!)

Ireland loves to watch TV in her bouncy seat...thank goodness she is so content!

We took a trip to Samford on Saturday to see the big Christmas tree and run off some energy! They loved it!

They loved running up and down the big step and then running down the hills! They pretended to be monsters ahhh.....!!!! Jackson wanted to sing Christmas carols while we were waiting on our hot chocolate!

Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas...part 1 - SAC style!

We had Lighting of the Way this week and although it was FREEZING...literally...it turned out really good and everyone had fun singing Christmas carols by the big tree and decorating cookies in Harry's!

SAC 2008!

I love these guys!! Even if Ross does look like a creeper in this picture! haha!!

MISS SAMFORD!

This was my second year to direct the Miss Samford Pageant and it went so well! The winner of our pageant last year went on to win the title of Miss Alabama so we have a great record! I'm so excited for our new Miss Samford 2009 Anna Laura Bryan and working with her to prepare for Miss Alabama in June!!

What a busy week/weekend!! I spent lots of time with the Youngs this week and weekend which is pretty normal but this weekend was insanly busy because the baby got baptised on Sunday morning and their WHOLE family came in town! A little bit of craziness but lots of fun!!

I took the kids to a fall festival that was at neighborhood school on Thursday. The boys had lots of fun and it was a great day to be outside!

Before the crazniess of halloween took over, me and their other babysitter Hallie took the kids and their cousins to the park! We have recently discovered this perfect park in Homewood and had a great time even with all 6 kids running around!
