Starting off Christmas on the right 'foot'

Merry Christmas!
We look forward every year to attending the annual Christmas dinner at the Hill's home! We adore this family and feel so blessed to be a part of their family memories! I am a little out of order on my posts..but there are such cute pictures, so I wanted to share!


 Meghan holding Tman! He just stared away. She's such a good momma!
 Miss Anna and Eli behind all smiles!
Campbell awoke and ready to play with Rhonda's glasses.
 Here they are! They had so much to catch up on. They just sat and discussed what they wanted for Christmas, which side of Santa's list they were one, what they think of their new stocking..you know, the usual talk for their age. (Their feet! I just love ..that's the close up on the top!)
Marcy had these shirts made for the holidays! I love them. Campbell's vest was adorable with pink sparkles and we have Gpa T's britches up high enough! :)




 Chillin' and waiting on the good food to be ready!
 Anita getting some Campbell time. The Schwartzman's got us Puppy Chow and a cute new toy for Turner. I LOVE making me some puppy chow!


 It was so sweet! Sharon got Turner his 1st Christmas gift to open. Turner did very well on interacting with the paper and so excited when it was opened. I loved it!


 Cookie Monster! He was so happy!
 Marcy taking a rest after all the wonderful cooking!

 On your mark...Get Set...Roll!!
 Turner, of course, scratched on Ryan's beard!
Well, I do know these two kiddos are on Santa's good list! We are so blessed to be surrounded by such wonderful family and friends. Looking forward to the next two weeks off and creating even more Christmas memories with all my family and friends!

We are THANKful for....

Thanksgiving 2010

It's been a great week! I just love spending time with my family! Addison had the entire week off as well, so we have been able to spend lots of time together with our little guy. With Addison traveling so much right now and work always consuming us, it was great to have a week surrounded with very little to do.

We started our week with celebrating Jackson's 3rd birthday!
Thanksgiving was wonderful! We had dinner with Nanny, Grandmama, and Grandpapa Tuesday evening to begin the festivities. On Thanksgiving, we went to Shugie's and had a wonderful day with Aunt Nat, Aunt Lydia, Moppy, Poppy, Shugie and the Fox crew! Turner had fun playing with everyone.


The pictures highlight what we did this week!

I took Turner to the library. I wanted a picture by this because I remember it when I used to visit the library at a young age. He was obviously staring at something more interesting :).
His new favorite spot....
We just sat there for about 15 minutes and he was just gazing away. I would whisper about the trees and mountains. He would look at me smile and then go back to staring out the window. Grandmama will have to make a weekly visit.


 We had breakfast before heading to church. He insisted he wore a tie for the Thanksgiving sermon.




 Took the opportunity to take some pictures by our pretty trees before they were all gone. This is one of my favorite hats of Turner, so I wanted to get some poses before he grew out of it. Shugie took Turner shopping and got him cute outfits and an ADORABLE hat. I can't wait to pose him in that one!



 Uncle Carl (as Caul is called:) and Lydia popped in for a visit.
 Jackson's birthday was so fun! Afterwards we went to Tim's with the whole clan! It's always a treat to be with the family!

 Big THREE!
 Turner and Campbell playing with their toys. Campbell do you mind if we borrow some bows to tame 'someone's' hair??
 Ryan was bouncing the blue ball and it was CRACKING Turner up!

Nanny had us over for dinner Tuesday evening! It was great to just spend time with Nanny, Gmama, and Gpapa.


 Aunt Natalie enjoying some floor time with the kids.
 MMMM... stuffing....
 Turner got passed around a 'few' times :) Poppy was excited to see his Turner!

 Daddy carving the turkey--Turner watching so he can do it next year.

 Marley was so cute and kept calling Turner, Baby. He pulled her hair and she said bad baby in the sweetest voice. Too cute! They both just played while we all ate.
 The Aunties with Turner Dean
 I'm stuffed!
 The whole Gobble Gobble clan... (Turner was napping!)
  Kate is due in three or so weeks! She will be having a boy! Megan tried to hold Turner many times but Marley would get jealous. We snuck a quick picture!



 Aunt Natalie's Thanksgiving outfit by the end of the night since Turner decided to pee all over her...and the bed..gotta love that boy!
 Of course had to have a little photo time while we were lounging around the house....


It was a great Thanksgiving break, but someone is ready to see their GRANDMAMA!
We are SO thankful for SO much!
Gobble! Gobble!
