A fun day with my family!

Today Mama, Quinner, Dylan and me went to see my Aunt Ann on the river! Dylan loves going b/c he loves looking at the boats and looking at the dogs! The weather was so nice today, so we were able to stay outside most of the time! My Aunt Ann was so excited to see him! We all enjoyed spending time together and ate some great food! Dylan got to feed the fish, pet the dogs, sit on a motorcycle and watch them drive off! He LOVED it!! After we got home, Jeremy & I cooked for everybody and we made cupcakes! My Mama even made her famous orange fluff...Yummy! The best part is when I walked in our living room and saw Dylan putting all his cars on Quinn! He was pushing them up her belly...it was hilarious! Then, he was putting together his Mr. Potato Head and it really cracked us up too!! Kids do the funniest things!! It was such a fun day, I love my family SO much!!

Dylan's 2nd Christmas!!

We had the best Christmas this year! We had so many wonderful people to celebrate with and Dylan loved it! My Mama came over and MiMi gave him a bunch of gifts to open, he loved all of them! Especially, the talking broom and dustpan! My sister had already bought Dylan his recliner, but couldn't help but buy him another riding toy! He loves it too, it even has a cup holder...too cute! Then, we went to Jeremy's grandaddy's house! We had a really good time! Dylan played with Peyton and they had a lot of fun! Of course, one of my favorite times of year is getting together with my in-laws at Christmas! They always go all out and this year the boys got 1955 Chevrolet pedal cars! They are so cute and the boys love them! I think Poppie is living out one of his dreams! He says they can be keepsakes! We opened gifts at their new house and went back and ate at the old house! It won't be long and they will be right next door! Jodie, Joey, Jeremy & me got Nonnie & Poppie a 16x20 framed picture made of them with the grandkids and I had an ornament made of Dylan's handprint, they loved them! We couldn't wait to see Dylan's face on Christmas morning! I am so grateful that my sweet hubby got me a camcorder for Christmas, b/c we got every bit of it on camera!! MiMi came over before he got up, so she was able to see the smile on his face! He went straight for the big truck with cars in it! Then, he saw his "tracto"! We took him outside to ride it and Booger was already riding his 4 wheeler! I think Dylan will probably get one of those next year, he loved it! His legs aren't quite long enough just yet! Then, we were off to Jeremy's Aunt Ann's house! There was so much good food and Dylan got to play with all the kids! Noah got a tractor too and they played in that most of the day! We had such a great Christmas and are so blessed to have such wonderful people in our lives! I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas!!

~Christmas at Aunt Mel's~

Yesterday we went to spend time with my family in Millbrook, we had so much fun! My Nana looked great and really enjoyed everyone being together! The food was great and it was fun just spending time with everybody! Quinn & Brad weren't able to make it, so I opened Maddie's gift my Aunt Mel made for her! It matches the colors Quinn is using in the nursery, it is precious! Dylan really enjoyed opening all of his gifts! Especially, the tractor calendar...now he gets to look at them everyday! Family is so important to me, I love them all so very much!

This picture was taken when Dylan was 8 months old. He loves to be outside! We were at our next door neighbors house and it was such a beautiful day, so I decided to take some pictures (imagine that)! It's hard to believe that he has grown that much, I can't believe he is almost 2 years old! It makes me sad when I look back at how much he has changed! They grow so fast! I love my little man so much!

Maddie's coming home outfit

Today I went shopping for Christmas presents and I walked by the Strasburg store! I could not help myself...I had to buy Maddie's coming home outfit! Quinn is going to love it! It is so precious and the shoes are so cute too! I even bought some socks with ruffles on them! I can't wait to see sweet little Maddie in her outfit, she is going to look precious!

Our 1st visit to Bass Pro Shop

This evening we went to Bass Pro Shop to get Dylan's picture made with Santa! We didn't realize that it would be SO crowded! We would of had to wait for over an hour to get his picture made and Dylan would not have lasted that long. So, we decided to walk around and check out everything! It is awesome! Dylan really enjoyed it! I was able to do some Christmas shopping, we also saw a good friend of mine that works at Tracker Marine and we even bought some fudge...it was so good! I found some really cute stuff for Madelyn too! I thought her daddy might like it! I think I will try to take Dylan back when I am off work the week of Christmas. Hopefully, it won't be too crowded! After we left, we stopped by the Bham Airport to watch the planes leave and come in...Dylan LOVED it! He kept saying, "Airpane"! I had so much fun spending time with my boys! I feel so loved!

Tis the Season

This is some pics I took today of Dylan in his new recliner, he loves it! Aunt Quinn gave Dylan one of his Christmas presents early and I am so glad she did! He doesn't really have anything to sit in when he watches TV, so this is perfect! I also took some pics of Dylan in front of the Christmas tree, he didn't want to have his picture made, but gave me a silly grin while saying, "Airplane"!

I love my family!

Today I took Dylan to get his hair cut and then we went to Aunt Quinn's house to see her and MiMi! We ate breakfast and spent some time together! Dylan loved looking at Quinn's dogs and loved being outside! I took some new pics of my beautiful and glowing sister! She looks so good and is now 31 weeks! I can't believe it! Quinn's baby shower is less than a month away and Madelyn will be here in less than 2 months!! We are SO excited and can't wait to meet her! Even Dylan knows whats going on, he will walk up to Quinn, pat her belly and say, "Baby". Then, he will kiss Quinn's tummy, it is SO sweet!! I love my family SO much!!

Jacob's 7th b'day party

We went to Jacob's birthday party this afternoon and we had such a good time! We finally got to see Jason & Ashley's new house! It is so nice! Jacob had such a good day! He got so much stuff and was so grateful! He LOVES Star Wars, so needless to say a lot of his gifts was Star Wars stuff! It was nice to meet all of Ashley's family! We are all so excited to go to the mountains in February for the wedding! Today was a great day, we had so much fun!

MiMi's Christmas present

Last night MiMi came over b/c Jeremy & I were going shopping for some more Christmas gifts! I thought we would go ahead and give MiMi her present from Dylan so she could put it on her mantle at home! My Mama is such a blessing to us, we love her so much! She was so surprised and so proud! She just kept saying, "Oh, my baby" It was so sweet! Then, of course Dylan wanted to see it too! He looked at it and said, "Rismas ree" It was so cute! Dylan loves his MiMi so much!!

Precious gifts

These are the gifts that we had made at Ceramic Creations and I love them!! I think they turned out so good! MiMi is going to love her plate!! The ornaments are for my mother-in-law and me! There is nothing more precious than a handprint b/c they grow so fast and you can't get that moment back! I can't wait to give MiMi & Nonnie their precious gifts!
