2012 Party

We got together with my extended family for New Years/Christmas on New Years Day! We had a ton of fun, and it was so unreal to me that last year Savannah was still in my tummy!!!! Now she is here and seems so grown up already! Its amazing what one year can do!!

This was me at 31 weeks, one year ago!!!!

Now a year later here is my precious little baby!!! 

Savannah was really into her gift this time. I think she was catching on as to what is under that wrapping!! Something for her! She just sat on hubby's lap the whole time, and would just look and help a little with the unwrapping. 

Yep, it only took her about 1 minute to figure out a way to climb her toy!

Too cute, and its amazing how smart she is at 10 months old!

Hope you all rang in the New Year with joy this year!!! 

Wonderful Wedding Weekend

I really have been a horrible blogger lately, I have lots to catch you up on!

Hubby's brother got married on Saturday evening, so we had a super busy weekend. On Thursday night we had a personal shower for the Bride at my Mother-In-Law's house. We had such a wonderful time, it was a beautiful night and the Bride got a lot of great things!!

Some of the Bridal Party

On Friday night we had the Rehearsal, but I didn't get too many good clear pictures of the rehearsal so I will not be posting any.

Saturday came around so quickly! All of hubby's family met for Breakfast, and then I had to get to my hair appointment. The Bride wanted all of the bridesmaids hair to be a right sided messy bun. I thought it was a great idea, so fun!!


Me and the Bride right before she got into her Dress

Me with the Bride in her beautiful Dress!!

All of the girls with the handsome groom.

So hubby and I ended up with only one picture of us together! I was so disappointed. Hubby and I did not pair up together in the Wedding Party, so I felt like we got no pictures together.

Our sweet little nephew carrying my bouquet for me, he loved that thing!

We all took individual shots. I adored the dress that the Bride chose, they were super cute and very comfy!

All the girls with the beautiful Bride.

Me with the Bride.

Here I am with our adorable cousin in the middle, and my hopefully-soon-to-be sister-in-law!

I am holding my adorable little niece, I was so shocked that she let me hold her, she usually only wants her mommy and g-ma!

Here's the whole Bridal Party!

Now the Newlyweds are honeymooning in Riviera Maya, Mexico! I am so jealous! Overall it was a wonderful day, they had an outdoor reception and we did get rained on. So that was a little disappointing, but it all turned out great after about 10 minutes of rain. Now hubby only has one brother that is not married, and hopefully that will happen soon!! :)

Today I feel so blessed to have such a wonderful family on my hubby's side, we had such a fun weekend together!

It's Was A Girls Night Out!

On Monday night all of us girls went to a Mother-Daughter Banquet at my Granny-n-laws church. We usually go every year, and I always look forward to it. We have so much fun together with just us girls!! The guys always get us riled up, so it was nice to have girl time.

My hubby is one of four boys, and now all the boys are either getting married, married or dating. So there were the 4 girls (daughter-in-laws), hubby's mom, hubby's Granny, a family friend, and the newest addition to the family.

We rarely get a picture with just all of us girls, so this picture will be treasured!

Today I feel so blessed to have such wonderful women in my life!!

Our Sunday...

...will be very relaxing!

We went to church this morning, the roads were still pretty bad but a lot better than yesterday! After church we ate at Ci Ci's, on of my favorites! We just decided to keep eating horribly since that's about all we did this weekend. Then tonight we are going to my parent's for the Super Bowl, and of course more bad eating!!

This is how it looks out of my kitchen! It is still very white out!

We hope you have a relaxing Sunday as well! Enjoy the Super Bowl (commercials for me, HA) and lots of bad food!


I feel so blessed right now to have spent a whole weekend with the man I love! I also feel blessed to have had safety on our very snow covered roads!!

Difficulties in taking a "good picture" with hubby...

...while he's preoccupied with his phone. Ridiculous, isn't it! This picture just cracks me up. So you think we are all about technology these days?!!

We visited some friends on Sunday, and we were taking some pictures. I wanted to get a picture of hubby and I, and this is what I had to go through!

First of all he looks like a deer in headlights! Plus he is still on his phone!!

Next is me telling him to get off his phone and smile so we can get a picture!

Looks like we have the smile part taken care of. Finally!

Last but not least, we have a picture that passes. Barely. The cell phone is still in the picture, but at least he's looking at the camera and smiling!

So you have just seen how difficult it is to get a "good picture" with my hubby!

( I have to laugh at Kevin's brother in these pictures, he looks so impressed, ha!)


I hope you are all having a wonderful Wednesday! I have not been feeling the best this week, I am hopeful that by tomorrow I will be feeling a lot better!

Birthday Lunch!!

Here are some pictures from our Birthday lunch that my sister made for us!! It was so delicious!!

Do you see that Apple Pie above? Yum, Yum, Yum!!! It was so good.

My lovely sister who loves to pose!!

My sister (in the white shirt) had us over after church on Sunday for a delicious meal. She is such a wonderful cook. Everything was excellent.

Kevin and I had a wonderful birthday dinner!!!

Today I feel so blessed to have been able to spend my Birthday with my wonderful family!!!

Oodles of a little Poodle

Meet Hummer! My parents little Poodle, he is quite the hyper-active dog. He can steal your heart away just like that!

My parents went on vacation, so we are house sitting/dog sitting. It has kept me really busy, they have a pretty big place so there are lots of plants to water, critters to feed, oh and I can't forget I still have to go to work. I love to house sit for them, it almost feels like I am on vacation. Sit by the pool, go on 4-Wheeler rides, go tanning, and relax in the Jacuzzi. So I cannot complain.

The day they left poor Hummer thought he was going along, he watched them the whole way out the driveway. Usually the first day they are gone he pity's himself, but he is doing great now. Kevin and I would have loved to go along, they are in Branson, Missouri. I have been there before and I loved it!

On Sunday night as we were driving home from church...

...we saw this ahead of us. It was breathtaking. With Moments like these how can you ever doubt there is a God!!

We will have a new addition to our family tomorrow! In the morning my brother-in law and his wife are scheduled to have there 2nd baby, a little girl. I cannot wait to meet her, and hold her. I will make sure to update you on the new bundle of joy, and also with lots of pictures (which I love to post with). So that means this little guy will be a big brother!! The other guy is Kevin's other brother, not the little guys dad. As you can see, they love ice cream! They even have there own special pail just for them because they eat right out of the pail. Too cute, I'm sure we will have lots of changes with a little girl coming into a family with mostly boys!!

Today I feel blessed to have the strength to face another day!
