Decorations of Plenty

Christmas doesn't just bring a special kind of excitement into our house, it also means tubs and tubs of decorations. This is some of our Christmas 2008 decorations.

























































Good Times and Great Friends

"Make new friends, but keep the old. One is like silver, the other like gold."

During the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays when everyone was in town visiting their families some of us reconnected. We had a BLAST reliving our partying days of the PAST!!!

Girls just wanna have fun!

Dee Dee came in from Conroe to spend the night catching up on the last 15 years. She left Lufkin the day after graduation, and we all miss her so much!
Kelly drove 5 hours and was determined to have a good time. She was with the right girls..me and my friend Jennifer.

The fabulous five! Leigh Ann, Jena, Sue Ann, Mandy and Me!
Who are those two lucky guys surrounded by all those beautiful women?

Tamara, Me, Jena, and Emily. These four momma's don't get out much, so we decided to make the most of our night on the town. Four wild girls at the Wild Horse Saloon. So sad it took all of us a couple of days to recover from our 1 night out in 15 years!

"No Boys Allowed"



Finally after three years of trying my friend Jennifer and I were able to make arrangements for all four boys to go to their grandparent's house on the same day. We decided to be crafty. With " NO BOYS ALLOWED" we turned these dollar tree finds into super cute Valentine gifts.

Christmas Card 2008



In the past, sending out the perfect Christmas Card has always been a huge ordeal. Thanks to my mother-in-law I had three cute pictures for our Christmas Card this year. I uploaded the pictures to the website www.ETSY.com and had this card custom made for $5.00. The proof was sent to CVS, and I got 50 pictures for around 6.00. So not only was the process painless, but also a bargain.

Getting Started

It seems I'm off to a bumpy start trying to figure out how to blog. Thanks to my good friend Jennifer and Autumn I now have a place to blog and a super cute dashboard. I'm horrible about taking pictures, so I'm hoping this site will encourage me to capture and share precious moments before they are soon forgotten. We shall see!
