(this cute Lollipop is IRON!) :)We traveled from one place to the other...... and had SUCH a good time with family & friends!
The week FLEW by, which is so unfortunate........but we enjoyed our time with everyone!! :)
*******
Ocean Springs, MISSISSIPPI was our 1st stop after Christmas!
Peek A Boo!!
Jenn & I on our workout day....as I alwasys say "do you want to kill me today?" :) and she never does, so nice of her! ;) but I KNOW I slow her down.....Thank you Jenn for letting me slow you down! :) love ya!!
Riley & Pierce watching for peeps to come up the stairs!
Riley and Pierce going down to the marsh! :) Watch out foxes, alligators, birds, cats ..... :)
******
The below pictures are a "Challenge" that Jenn & Jason came up with on the way back to the coast from Pierce's birthday! The Brian Baumeister Crew didn't get it together to make anything and then when they saw what The Jason Baumeister Crew & The Bill Baumeister Crew made; the maiden of the Brian Baumeister Crew was GLAD she didn't get it together! :)
but....ok, so you could only use certain items (as chosen by the Maiden of The Bill Baumeister Crew) = (paper, felt, tin foil, buttons, wood and wire), have one bought item of 10dollars or less and one secret item!
Jason made Jenn a MANGER! :)
The 3 Wise Men!
Mary, Joseph, and Baby Jesus (Riley!) :)Jenn gave Jason a COOL looking wooden business card holder for him at the golf course! I didn't get a picture! :(
Then, The Bill Baumeister Crew presented The Brian Baumeister Crew with a Family Shield! Along with the neatest scroll of history on the Baumeister name and the men before Pierce!as you can see: Felt is the background, buttons with tin foil on them to shine, wire to hang it with, wood to hold of the crest, wood to hold the shield! :)
I was thoroughly impressed!!
- Then The Bill Baumeister Crew presented The Jason Baumeister Crew with a wooden box (again no picture) with the letter B made on it! Very CUTE!
- - -all I can say, is a creative bunch o' people! :)
One of Jenn's gifts, I just loved the saying! :)
Loving the boxes more than anything and Aunt Jenn's Salad Spoons! ;)
Uncle Jason wearing my hat! :)
Shaking Baby Syndrome! Uncle Jason picking up my chair! ;) 
The boys plus one girl! :)
The girls....
It was so funny, because P looked like "where is the hair that I can hold on too!?" when Jason picked him up and put him on his shoulders! :) He usually has Daddy's long locks to use as reins! ;)
Silly!
Tea Party with Jason!
Miss Alyssa Kate came to spend a couple of hours with us!Her and P even had a tea party! :)
She is a doll, isn't she?!
Riley's toy that is a string of Christmas lights that Daddy put on her as a necklace and I wanted a picture! Perfect Christmas Card don't you think!?? :)
being silly with no clothes before bath time! :)
Giving Uncle Jason a kiss through the door! ;)and I realized I didn't get a picture of the tree in Ocean Springs, but I just have to say....my vote is having it in the den!
It is so NICE and cozy! :)
*************************************************************************************
Then we headed to Paris, TENNESSEE!
I think Momma's Christmas tree looks like a PROFESSIONALLY decorated tree!
She did so good!! :)
Come to my house next year?? :)
The cows come to attention when the Gator is cranked! :)
Sorry, guys, the baby is just going for a ride! :)
Feeding Murphy! :)
Murphy tried to get P's pacy! It was quite funny! :)
Baby DID let Pierce get near her.....as long as John was around!
:o)
Love the wreath on the barn....
I was being silly, picked up some moss and put it in an acorn hat!
It reminded me of these pictures that my Aunt Mary used to have.....
Watermelon inside a Pineapple....quite interesting! ;)
P got to put out hay with Mr. Jerry & Mr. Austin!!
Then we went for a swing!
I wish you could just HEAR him....he was like sucking in his breath and was like "Whhhha" and "Oooooo"!
He loved his lawn mower from Uncle John & Dana!!! :)
playing with Grandmom in the paper! :)
Fooling GrandDad by HIDING money in the box so he couldn't find it! :)
******
and I didn't get ONE picture of Daddy the day before, celebrating his Birthday OR eating his Lemon Pie I made him! B saw him, and he thinks his cheeks puckered on their own on his first bite of the pie because it was so sour! :)
I tried, I just didn't make it like Mamaw!
Happy Birthday! (12/30/11)
******
SWEET! ;) Bacon posed for me! :)
Sasha!

I loved John & Dana's tree! So fun! I had such a good time walking around looking at all the John Deere ornaments!

The Cozy Coop! :) He looked like he was chilling, didn't he??
His arm all propped up on the side! :) ha!!

We even got to do a QUICK visit with Aunt Ellen at her law office! We tore up the joint! :)
and GrandDad & GrandMom enjoyed showing P off at the Wal-Mart trip we had to make!!
We even got to run down the road and see Aunt MeMe, Uncle PopPop and Huddy!
***
I only made it to about 1130 on 12/31/11. I think this is the first year that I have NOT seen the ball drop, even last year I was up for a feeding to see it drop! :) Oh well..... there are many more to come.....
