Merry Christmas!!

I hope everyone enjoys time with the ones they love today. Christmases just aren't the same without my dear grandmother, but I know that she is watching from above and would be so happy to see everyone celebrating this special time together. God has certainly blessed me with two wonderful families that I love so dearly. I hope to post a lot of pictures from the holidays very soon. For now..... Have a very Merry Christmas :)

Merry Christmas to us!!

Josh, Janna, and Corbin made it back home Wednesday night. After being in New York for several months, we were glad to have them back!!












Corbin and Harlon were finally able to meet:)

Christmas Pictures

This past Sunday, we had pictures taken for Christmas. This was our first time to have pictures done since we've been married..... terrible, I know! I wanted to wait to post one until we got our Christmas cards sent out, but I am giving in:) Just a teaser for now........

A Christmas Carol

Jared, Serena, Dakota, Emily, and I went to see" A Christmas Carol" at the Rep. The play was great, but at times really odd. I won't even tell you the story behind our tickets. I will just say that Emily and I really had some good laughs and froze our tushes off!

Happy Birthday

Happy late birthday to my dear friend Karista!! Several weeks ago, a few of us girls (and Dakota) went to On the Border.... my favorite. The food was delicious as always. After our wonderful meal, we headed to my parents to play games. Wow.... We definitely had lots of laughs. Im so thankful for the wonderful friends God has blessed me with.

ARMOI

Arvest is once again the proud sponsor of the Arvest River Market on Ice in Downtown Little Rock. I remember skating here when I was a young girl, but for some reason the rink was shut down and not opened for many years. Arvest sponsored the outdoor rink and brought it back to Little Rock last year. Since it was such a huge success, they sponsored it again this year:) The night before the actual "Opening Night," we had an Arvest River Market on Ice Party. We all had a blast and froze ourselves silly, but most importantly we got to share this special time with our friends and family.

Boys Will Be Boys

Several weeks ago, Jared and I decided to have Rhett, Ashton and Braydon over for the weekend. Yes...... crazy I know! The three of them spent the night which was very interesting. I told them they could stay up as long as they wanted, but they couldn't keep us awake. I snuck in their bedroom several times to listen to their stories and laughed so hard I wanted to cry. They definitely have huge imaginations! They were as hyper as could be, so finally around midnight I made them shut their bedroom door so we couldn't hear them. After that, we didn't hear much of a peep. They all three came barging in our bedroom around 7am because they were sooooo hungry:) We were all ready and out of the house by 7:45. As promised, Jared and I took them down to the Rivermarket for breakfast. The weather was great, so after breakfast we enjoyed a walk by the river then a nice time at the playground. The boys begged to play football, so we picked up Jais and headed to the highschool football field. We all enjoyed ourselves, but Jared and I were definitely ready for some peace and quiet:)
