~Fun Lunch at DQ~


Today I met the gang at DQ for lunch...you know it seems EVERYONE is off but me...I know that's not true but sometimes it feels like it. It is still nice to meet up and get a break and I am thankful for that. I thought I would share this cute pic of Carter and Brandon sharing a strawberry sundae. :)

Almost New Year

As 2010 approaches very quickly, I am in amazement at how fast time flies. This year has definitely been a year of blessings. I bought a house in April, Brandon and I got engaged on July 4th, my second nephew Cannon was born on July 27th, and Brandon and I got married on October 24th! God has been so good to me and my family.

On New Year's Day, me and Brandon are thinking about heading up to Pigeon Forge for the weekend. We are trying to decide because we know it will be so busy but maybe everyone will be heading out of there on New Year's Day. I hope everyone has a great and safe New Year's! Happy 2010!

Merry Christmas!




First I wanted to add a few recent pictures of the boys. They are growing so fast!
I can't believe this week is here already! Our Christmas festivities start Wednesday evening at my Gran and Sonny's house. I am so excited about being together with all of the family. I am off work Thursday and Friday so I am very excited about that. It has been kind of a rough week at work so I am extremely happy about the long weekend. Merry CHRISTmas to all and may we always remember the true reason for the season.

Let it Snow

This morning Brandon and I were awakened by my cell phone ringing at 8:03 AM...it was my brother, Chad, calling to tell me to get up and look outside because he didn't want us to sleep too late and miss it. I crawled out of bed and looked out and saw snow covering the ground! It was so beautiful and a great surprise to wake up to. Brandon decided he was ready for breakfast so we made some biscuits and "hatched out" only to fall back into bed for an hour or two. I love Saturdays...that is one thing I do love about a M-F job because I never have to worry about going to work.

Mom, Jo, and I made a trip to Chattanooga to do a little Christmas shopping. A lot of the family has decided not to do gifts this year so I really don't have a lot to buy for. It was very crowded everywhere and the traffic was horrible. I can't believe it's already Christmas time although I do love this season. It is also very special since it is our first Christmas married. ;)

A Thankful Heart

Just wanted to say how thankful I am for my wonderful life. I have a wonderful new husband, a great family, wonderful in-laws, great friends, and a good job. God has blessed me and my family so much.

So glad it's Friday!

I am so happy that the weekend is finally here. It has been a real busy week this week. Tuesday night I invited Mom, Dad, Chad, Lauren, and the boys over to eat dinner and look at our new Christmas tree, Wednesday we had a family picture made and ate dinner at a new Mexican restaraunt in Cleveland called "Tres Amigas" which was really good. Last night Mom, Lisa, and I went to Chattanooga to the YMCA Christmas Market and tonight we are going to eat dinner with Brandon's parents for his mom's birthday (which was Wednesday). So tomorrow I am very excited about a relaxing Saturday. I cannot believe Thanksgiving is next week! I am excited though because I love to eat all the yummy food and we are off work Thursday and Friday. :) Well, that is all that is going on around our new little household. Hope everyone has a great weekend! xoxo

On the Facebook Band Wagon

Brandon and I finally joined facebook this week. It has been pretty fun getting everything set up and 'adding' friends. I just thought I would notify all my blog readers. haha ;)
