Happy 4th birthday Zoey

Zoey's birthday was another success this year. We had three parties, one with my family at Lisa's house, with Curtis's family at red Robin and her friend birthday party the following day. It was exhausting for me but Zoey felt like a little princess so it was a success in my eyes. All of the neighbor kids came plus one of Zoey's little friends from school, Amelia. pictures

Two hours before the party I bumped my head on the shelf in the bathroom and gave myself a concussion so that made the party a little bit harder for me. Now that all the festivities are over with I'm ready to relax and do nothing, I need a break.

Merry Christmas

Christmas was a bit different this year for us as we were all sick and my family Christmas was cancelled. For Christmas Eve we hung out at home and had Pemmy over to spend the night and do stocking. We had Christmas at Monique's and had a wonderful time, the gift exchange was good this year. Zoey had so much fun this year with Christmas. I think her favorite part was all the decorations and tree in her room. She would keep taking things from the living room and put them in her room. It was super cute that I didn't have the heart to move them back and by the end of Christmas her shelves were full :) Sickness and all it was a wonderful Christmas and I love my family! 

New siding

It's finally finished!!! I was impressed at how fast they put it up. We totally love it and it makes our house look so much better! Now to figure out how to pay for it ;) lol

Christmas IJV reunion

Once again we had our IJV holiday reunion and it was so fun seeing everyone, especially Mr. Clay Frost :) Oh the good old days!

All about Gigi

Today the ladies took Gigi out to dinner for Christmas and her birthday. We had a wonderful time and each one of us took turns telling her why we love her. We all love our Gigi!!!!

Proud daughter

My dad is almost 70 years old and he is still hanging off the sides of buildings. Today he was washing the window at the Library downtown right next to work so I got to go see him. I'm so proud of him for working so hard and creating a business that is well know for being "quality work" and "integrity". I have so much to aspire to be and I will always look up to you! Love you so much Daddy!

We got snow!!!

My wish came true and less then a week after tree hunting we got snow! I made the biggest snowman possible...with the help of Zoey and the cousin's. What a fabulous snow day!!!!!!!

Tree hunting

Another successful day of tree hunting! Found an awesome tree and Zoey did great in the snow. I don't think it's her thing though, haven't quite figured out why yet. Making a snowman was really hard because the snow was super dry so I'm hoping we get some snow at home this year so we can make another one. It turned out super cute though, right?!?! :) pictures

Goodbye Jen

Today was a really hard day for me. My friend Jen of 10 years got laid off and today was her last day. It was all I could do to be there and not either be bad or cry. I'm going to miss her like crazy but I've made a friend for life and so thankful for that! Miss you already Jen and love you to pieces!!! xoxoxo
