Wordless Wednesday!

Happy New Year!!!

Brian & I were able to go to Ocean Springs for New Years and while we were down there we celebrated our Christmas with everyone! We had such a good time! :)



For New Years, it was the 6 of us and the neighbors: the Dukes & the Peters, celebrating! It was a good time! and OF COURSE you all know I LOVED the glasses (and the glitter! ha!)!!!
Welcome 2010!!!!!!!!

Jason doing a jive in his Top Hat & glasses! ha!!!

The Group!!!

The Fam! :)

Also, while we were on the coast I was able to spend a couple hours with a college friend of mine, Allison! She lives in Gulfport, just a few minutes away from Ocean Springs!!! She and I realized when we were visiting that we have not seen each other since we graduated from college! In that time she has had 2 sweet little girls! Azlyn, who is 3 and Atley, who was only 4-5 weeks old when I was visiting!!! We had such a good time talking and laughing! We just totally picked up where we left off! I love it! She is the best motivator! I guess that is why she is a personal trainer! :)
Love you Al!

Allison & I

Azlyn! Isn't that the sweetest smile!? Posing with her book that I gave her! :)

Atley in her Sassy's arms! Cute as a bug!!!

Allison told me how to go back to Ocean Springs via the beach and this is some of the scenery that I saw in January! Beautiful!



While we were there I got to meet Preston! A very special little boy that has become BIG friends with Mr. Bill & Mrs. Brenda (Pop B & B) :) Preston's Dad has been friends with Jason for a long while! and Mr. Bill & Mrs. Brenda just LOVE spending time with him. I believe he gets to come visit with them every Tuesday so that Mom (Valerie) can run errands! :) Pretty cute isn't he?? :)

Some of our Christmas Time pictures! ;)

Posing with her Tootsie Roll & her Towel! :)

Mrs. Brenda with her Scarf! :)

Jenn with her Scarf! :)

my CUTE CUTE 1960s TV Slippers that Mrs. Brenda knitted me!!!!!! Mrs Brenda also gave me a knitting kit!! I am excited to try to learn! It is certainly harder than crocheting!!!

Jenn & I trying to learn to knit!! Do you think Mrs. Brenda has her hands full?? ha!

After our Knitting we took a break for SHOPPING! :)

and then back at it that afternoon! ha!!!

and then Jason......posing with the tree that he is trying to fit in our truck so that we can bring it to Memphis to plant! A Water Oak! We actually didn't have to ride all the way back to Memphis with the window open, they bent it and we slammed the door really fast! We thought it might break all windows out by springing out, but it did ok! ;)

Mr. Bill & Mrs. Brenda gave Sophie a play pad! This is her rolled up in it!!! ha!!!

and OH MY GOODNESS! My cow luggage! I love it! Mom & Dad gave me the suitcase!!! I used it when we went to Ocean Springs! It was GREAT!!!! and Mr. Bill & Mrs Brenda surprised me with the vanity case! SOOOO STINKING CUTE!!!! Do you think I will be the talk of the airport!? I do! :)


Happy New Year Y'all!!!!

Friends & Funny Faces!

One Monday night, Autumn came down from Nashville to visit with Audra & I for Christmas. We all 3 met in college and have stayed in touch ever since! We went out to eat & went to Saddle Creek to watch it "snow" on the creek! It was such a good time! I am so thankful to have Audra living in town with me, and I think Aud & I both wish Autumn was closer (but Nashville is not as far as DC right?)! :) Anyways, I found the below pictures just a second ago and forgot that I had them! ;) Enjoy! Whitten was cracking me up, Aud said she had never seen that face before! I guess Miss Stacy just brings it out in her! She was hammin' it up! :) Love you girls!

Autumn, Audra & Me @ "the snow" (on the commercial per Audra, it was no less than a blizzard) and when you got there you could barely see it! ha! Funny! but fun!!!

Look at that face! Cracking me up!!! :)

The minute I would get done taking the picture she would go back to being normal, but for some reason when it was about to flash she would pucker up! HA!

What!??

Finally Momma got her to smile!!!

Ho Ho Ho!!

Merry Christmas everyone!!!
We have been able to come to Paris, enjoy time with family, visit with good friends, eat excellent food and open fabulous presents! ;)

I hope each and every one of you had a wonderful Christmas!!

Later this coming week, B & I will be traveling to Ocean Springs to celebrate Christmas & New Years! :) We are really excited to be able to spend the whole week with both of our families! We are so thankful and blessed!

The next time I post, it will probably be 2010!!! so,

Happy New Year!!!!
