Christmas Morning



I am finally getting to take a minute to post. We had a great Christmas this year. Christmas eve we ate Waffle House with my parents as it was one of the only places open at 5pm. We woke the kids up around 7:30 Christmas morning they opened all the presents from us and santa then Heaths parents came over at 8:30 and they opened up a bunch more presents from them, Heaths aunts and uncles and Heaths grandma. They were most excited about the trampoline.
We had lunch at his grandmothers then we went to my parents to open up the gifts from them and all my family and had dinner. We are still trying to figure out where all the presents are going to go.

Buddy & Parties


Wednesday Brooke had snack day at school so that meant she brought Buddy Bear home which is one of her favorite things. He got to go to the Birthday party for Jesus with her Wednesday night. Thursday at school they had a little program for parents. Heath and I enjoyed that. Saturday night The Hansons had their Christmas party. They had train rides and you could sit on Santas lap. We had a great time. Lara and the kids came up from Charleston and the Morgans came from Alabama. Brady and Heath are golfing right now and Brooke is Christmas shopping with my dad. I should probley get back to cleaning. I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas!!

Our Angel & Santa


















Sunday Brookes choir did their performance in church and she was a sweet little angel. They did a great job. After church Sunday night we went to the train guy with my parents and some people from church. We took a hayride and Brady sat on Santas lap. This Santa did not say a word, did not ask what he wanted, did not say hello or ho ho ho. It was really wierd but atleast we got a picture. We have a Christmas party at California Dreamin tomorrow night, a party for Jesus Wednesday night at Awanas, Thursday we have Brookes Christmas Party at school and two Christmas parties on Saturday. I will try to post some of those over the weekend. Hope everyone is enjoying the Season and the true meaning of Christmas. If you ask Brooke she says the best part is the presents. My dad is so proud, lol!!!

Crazy Hair Night & Horse Ride











Last Wednesday night was crazy hair night at awanas. Heath also helps but is way to cool or so he thinks to participate. We had our church Christmas party friday night and had a great time.
Saturday night we went and ate with John, Laurie and the kids at Wild wings and rode the horse at Sandhills. We stood in line for almost two hours and we were lucky enough to be the last ride of the night at 9:15pm. I am glad because the kids would have been pretty upset if they wouldn't have been able to ride. I tried to take some pictures of the kids Sunday for our christmas cards. I went ahead and made an appt at Portrait Innovations for the 20th since I couldn't get them to look at me and smile (a real smile) at the same time. That was the first after school appt they had so I might get the cards out on time this year or not. Hope everyone is having a good weekend and getting excited about Christmas despite this crazy weather.

What a Week!!





































Well, the kids and I were in an accident last tuesday that was my fault. I pulled out in front of a girl that actually goes to my church. I did not see her and well anyways thank goodness the kids were alright. Its also a good thing I started working at a body shop a few weeks ago.


We were actually on the way to James Ervin to look at a Tahoe since the lease on my jeep is almost over. Ofcourse nothings gone wrong in two years on the jeep and right before its due back I wreck it. This was really hard on me at first because it was Brookes door that got hit and I keep thinking what could have happened but God truly had a hedge of protection around us because it could have been alot worse and the kids were not injured. ANYWAYS,


Our good friends the Morgan leave for Alabama in the morning so we had a girls sleepover friday night and Brooke and I had a great time. It was Brookes first sleepover and she made me lay with her until she fell asleep but it was still worth it. We went to see the lights at Saluda Shoals friday night & went to Kaylas birthday party saturday morning at Build a Bear. Laurie took all of the "CobbleStone Kids" pictures together one last time before they leave. We also had a pot luck for them as well last night. Luckily Ana had to create a blog for online classes and now is going to make one for all the girls to keep in touch, right Ana????? Hope everyone has a good week!!
