Visit with Aunt Audie...





Aunt Audie stopped by for a visit on her way home to Foley. Michaela and I had a great time. Michaela got her first set of fashion jewelry and was a big fan from the first time she sported the set. Thanks Aunt Audie for a fun time and for my presents!!!

Congrats Kelly!




We are so proud of Kelly for getting her masters at New Orleans Theological Seminary. Her and David have worked really hard! They had to move due to Hurricane Katrina where they lost much, including Kelly's car at the time. They stuck it out though, and for that we are proud! :)
We went down to New Orleans and had a great time! We ate at some wonderful restaurants and got a nightly Starbucks fix, due to the fact that David works there. Props to David! I am so blessed to have become a part of such a wonderful family. They are wonderful to both Michaela and I.

Quick Catch Up Time...

Dad and Chris went pheasant hunting in Iowa back in November. They had a great time and killed a few! I have to say, I didn't know how beautiful those birds are. The tail feathers are gorgeous.
Grammy has spent quite a bit of time hanging out here over the past several weeks off and on. It is always such a treat to have her around. Michaela really thinks so!
Here is a group pic at Erika's wedding. There aren't any opportunities for many of these now that we all live in different places!

Well, a lot of time has passed since I last posted. I guess we have just been busy. I am sure that everyone knows how this time of the year is. It is great, but just a little faster paced. We went home (FOley) for Thanksgiving and had a wonderful time. I got to shop till I dropped, so that was a lot of fun! Chris and dad basically just did there own thing and all us girls got to spend some time together.
This past weekend, we went to New Orleans to see Kelly graduate from New Orleans Seminary. We had a great time. I will post more on that soon~
Michaela is growing fast and it is just getting more and more fun. I am really excited about Christmas this year. She will really enjoy herself. Especially because we will spend lots of time with family!
I hope that everyone has a wonderful Christmas! It is my goal to just be relaxed and enjoy myself. It is so easy to get stressed this time of the year. Find a good book and read over the holidays! That is one of my fav things to do!
Talk to everyone soon!
