Our Christmas :)

Christmas has come and gone once again!!

We had a great Christmas celebrating Jesus' birth and also spending lots of time with our family.

We celebrated with the Hayes' a few weeks before Christmas. The kiddos always have such a fun time with their cousins. Landon fixed a yummy fajita dinner and the kids opened their presents for each other.


Christmas Eve the kids decorated their cookies for Santa, this has become a fun tradition for them.

Santa's cookies and milk!!

We had Landon's dad, grandmother and Aunt Paula come over that evening for a yummy dinner. We had a great time visiting and we were so glad they could stop by for the evening.

Christmas morning the kids opened presents from Santa (glad they were on his good list) and also opened the presents from Landon and I. We cooked a yummy breakfast and had Nanny and Papa over, then headed to Baird to have Christmas with my family.

Santa always drops of pajamas at my Memaw's house. He has done this since I was a little girl and something that I want to always do with my kids and hopefully pass on to their kids. The kids love getting their pajamas every Christmas!

And no trip is complete without helping Papaw pick pecans :)

We had to leave a day sooner than planned to get home before Goliath, the blizzard hit. And boy did it hit us hard!! Lots and lots of snow! Midland got 7.5 inches and the kids have loved every bit of it. They played in the snow with cousin Jhetty, Landon took them sledding and I of course stayed inside watching from the window ;)

We had lots of fun with Jhett and we are so sad to see them leave. But we will see them in a week, so I guess we can make do :)


Silly cousins!!!

We are so thankful for the time we had with our family and so blessed to have each of you!

Laney's Baptism!

Laney made the decision to follow Christ and told us she was ready to get Baptized. This was one of the proudest moments we have both had as parents thus far.

She has had a heart of gold since the moment she could speak. This little girl, is always so concerned with making sure her friends know all about God. She came home the first week of kindergarten telling us who we need to pray for because they didn't know God. She loves church and would go every day if she could.

Laney really wanted her dad to be the one to baptize her, and let me tell you... Landon has dreamt about this day ever since we knew we were pregnant, over 7 years ago. Such a special moment we will always cherish!!!

We are so thankful for family and friends that were able to attend this special day, and for family that weren't able to attend that were thinking of her.


Laney Capri, Mom and Dad are so very proud of you and can't wait to see the things you will do for the Lord!!

So Thankful!!

We have SO incredibly much to be thankful for this season and we were so glad to be able to spend time with our family to celebrate.

Thanksgiving weekend is always crazy for us but I wouldn't have it any other way. We had several rounds to make but we survived, had special time with family and ate tons of yummy food. This year I had even more reason to get seconds and eat four meals in one day :) Kingston was a happy, happy, full boy, ha!

This is one thing I am so Thankful for.. my family!! I love each and every one of them dearly and can't wait to get to love on another bundle soon (8 1/2 weeks left).

We are also so thankful for each of our family members. Too many to get a pic with all of them but I wanted too share a few pictures we captured.

POPS!
NANNY!
LOVE from Jhetty!!
Lots of love from Landon :)
We had a wonderful Thanksgiving, now already on to Christmas!! Can you believe it?
