New Year's Eve 2008

I just celebrated my birthday last week, and was lucky enough to have Tracy and her family come over to share it with me and the girls. Seeing that my birthday is on New Year's Eve, things are bound to get wild and crazy. I let Amelia take the camera and this is her version of our birthday celebration. Just imagine these same girls 15 years from now!! Watch out world, here they come

Good Morning, Sunshine!!


I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!! The girls and I spent Christmas in Jacksonville with Jillie, Uncle Pappy, and the rest of the family. Good Times!! The girls got most of what they asked Santa for, and some extra goodies they were not expecting. Luckily for them, Jillie had written Santa a letter and let him know they would be at her house this year for Christmas so he was able to find them and leave their presents at the right house. Steve is usually the photographer on Christmas morning, but since it was my job this year there are very few pictures to share. I got too "wrapped up" in Christmas boxes and bows as the girls were tearing into their gifts to take pictures. But there are a couple I will post to share with everyone. And it seems I do not know how to arrange the pictures once I have added them to the blog, so they are in the reverse order that I intended for them to be. Ooops!! We really enjoyed spending time with family and friends, and the girls have enjoyed their vacation from school. But they are actually ready to get back!! Hannah says she misses her friends and can't wait for school to start back. We will see how long that attitude lasts once she has to get back into the routine of getting up early, and doing homework. But before you know it Spring Break will be here, and then summer is just around the corner!!
