Year gone by...

I know I've been a horrible blogger this year and  I promise to try to do better next year!  Instead of telling about every little thing since July, I will just hit a few of the high points.

• August: Nason and I celebrated our birthdays.  Keith and I also had a beagle to show up on our doorstep.  She was very hungry and had a few health issues.  We decided to foster her and named her Annie.  She has had a couple of surgeries and is doing great! We would love to find her a wonderful home.  Since I was given new work responsibilites, I was only able to take two classes this semester.  It has been a long one and I will be very glad when they are over!    
• September:  Keith and I celebrated our 3rd anniversary! We were able to go to Pensacola again and had a great time.
• October:  We celebrated Amanda and Daddy's birthday's.  Daddy hit the big 6-0 this year!  Also, Nason and Amanda are having baby number 3 in May!  We are all very excited about that!!  
• November:  Keith received a promotion at work to Tech 2 and I was promoted to Assistant Director.  It was a good month.  Keith started tackling the hot water pipes in the house.  It has been a mess!  Thanksgiving was great because we got to see and visit with everyone.   
• December: We finally got our tree up last night and hopefully will get some shopping accomplished soon! I received a text from Nason that we are getting another nephew!  I can't wait to meet him!

That about sums up everything that was going on with us the last part of 2010.  I'll post pictures soon...I promise! :)

Happy Birthday Papaw!

This past weekend, Papaw turned 97!!!! He was honored at Weir's 125th birthday celebration as being the oldest man.  Nason, Amanda, Harrison, and Marin were able to come up and we all enjoyed a great time.  After hearing several speeches, we headed to Roy Oswalt's restaurant for lunch.  It was great!  We all then went to Papaw's for cake and icecream and for him to open his presents.  It was such a great day! And truly a blessing!  We love you, Papaw!!!! 

Mama's Birthday!!

We finally were able to get everyone together to celebrate Mama's birthday this past weekend.  We had a really good time!  I hope she had a wonderful birthday celebration-even if it was a few days late!! :)

Air Show

This past weekend, the Thunderbirds were in town for a performance.  Mama, Daddy, and Papaw were able to be there.  We were really worried about the weather, but it turned out perfect! Papaw will be 97 next month and has never seen an air show.  After getting there, I don't think he was too excited about the whole thing, but once they started to perform, he really seemed to enjoy it.  He is a WW2 vet and worked on airplanes when in the service, but has never been in one.  He said he still has no desire to fly!  Hope you enjoy the pictures that Keith took.  We have a ton, but these are just a few of the good ones!

Happy Birthday, Mama!!!

Today, Mama turns 60! She probably won't be happy with me sharing that, but I think it is wonderful!! I hope you have a fabulous day and I love you, very much!!!!

Time for an update??

It has been over a month since my last post and boy, have we crammed a bunch in!  We've had 2 birthday parties, a wedding, and a new shop go up.  First, we started off with Marin's 2nd birthday on Feb. 12.  I was able to go to her party and had a fun time.  She is growing up so quickly.  Next, Harrison turned 4 on March 9.  His party was at the baseball field and was a blast! The weekend following that, March 13, my sweet cousin Rebecca was married.  She had a beautiful wedding and was a stunning bride!  For Keith's birthday, I gave him a shop-we'll the plans for one. Our neighbor, Gene, got started on it this past Friday and is almost finished! His crew works quick!!!!  And so far we couldn't be happier.  I will post pictures of the shop later-Keith wants to wait until it is finished!! :)  Keith and I are both waiting anxiously for spring, even though it feels more like winter today.  I'm sure I've missed something, but for now, I'll leave it at that!

Happy Birthday Keith!!!

Today, Keith turns 30.  I joked with him last night that he is leaving me behind in the 20's!  And then this morning that since he's gotten older he has to go to bed early and get up early!  He didn't seem to agree...Anyway, all kidding aside, I hope that Keith has a HAPPY, HAPPY Birthday!!  We celebrated early with a surprise party at Harvey's.  The guest list included: Mama, Daddy, Papaw, Charles, Debbie, Kristi, Frankie, Natalie, Alyson, Kerri, Travis, Hailey, Harrison, Ms Eva, Mr. Frank, April, Denise, and Gene.  I had been planning the party for a few weeks and was having a hard time not telling him.  I'm not sure if it was a good idea to have it at Harvey's or not. I watched everyone get there and go in!  I have no idea how he missed it and didn't see anyone!  Anyway, we went over and he was shocked!  It was priceless.  After dinner, we went back to our house for cake and icecream.  Keith then opened his gifts.  He's building up a nice tool collection!  I think Keith had a great party.  I hope he is blessed with many more. 

Keith, I love you, very much!!
