Friends Christmas!


Yesterday morning, we got about fifty flakes of snow.  SK wanted to go out and build a snowman.  Of course there was no snowman, but she had a wonderful time.
She said that wearing mittens would not look good in the picture.

Kelly came over yesterday with her girls!


We LOVED the visit and the gifts!!!!!

I love these little girls so much!
Emily had p.j. day at school.

Sweet little girls!!!!


I am thrilled with my Christmas gift from Kelly.  LOVE!!!!

I like the tired momma pic of Kelly when you were taking the pic of the girls and she's in the background. I'm sure she's just blinking, but it's cute. That's how I feel. Tired and sluggish.I've been baking for Christmas and eating like Templeton from Charlotte's Web.

Merry Christmas to you and your wonderful family. I love reading your posts. I thought you didnt like birds? what is with the bird cage? It is very cute but I just remember you saying you didnt like birds. The girls are so cute. Love all the pictures. Wishing you all the very best in the new year.

Something Good to Eat

Ever since Steve and I started dating, when we would go to Mississippi, his aunt would make the BEST ROAST IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!! Steve's Dad's side of the family gets together at his Granny's house for lunch every Sunday after church. The food is always sooo good!!!!!!!!!!!! I have always taken a liking to his Aunt Judy's roast. It really is the best roast I have ever had. When we were there on Labor Day weekend, my sister in law asked Aunt Judy for the recipe. Aunt Judy began naming all the ingredients. She said Ranch Dressing mix, and I bugged my eyes out and nearly chocked. I HATE RANCH DRESSING. I don't even like to be in the room with it. I had to focus on the word MIX....not the mayo and butter milk and sour cream that you add to it. Just typing those words makes me shudder. The recipe sounded awful as she rattled off the ingredients, but I promise, you have got to make this if you like a good roast. Trust me on this. Here it is: Get a tender chuck...

Complicated

Maybe I am wrong, but I don't remember life being so complicated when I was in middle school. Everything is so competitive now.  Maybe it was back then and I just didn't realize it. Sarah Kate started playing city league softball a couple of weeks ago.   We've been encouraged to get her private batting lessons. When I was in third grade I started playing softball and I just did it for fun!  No stress at all, as far as I can remember!  I just played.  I wasn't very good, but I liked it! Ha! Emily started band this year!  Before school started, I got a letter from the school district strongly encouraging "your band student to take instrument lessons."  WHAT?  I bought into it and got Emily private clarinet lessons (which she really enjoys)! But, what happened to learning as you go?  I never thought about taking private trumpet lessons when I started band. It seems like most parents are striving for their child to be THE BEST....

Life in Pictures!

Emily is enjoying her first year in band.  I am very impressed with her playing skill! Sarah Kate was recently awarded the empathy award at her school.  She is very deserving of this! Here we are before the Cotillion Holly Ball.
