Our Christmas

Well first of all I want to say Congratulations to my cousin Lacey and her new fiance' Brandon!! He proposed to her in front of Cinderella's castle at Disneyland last Saturday!! She flew out to California to spend Christmas with him and his family and he popped the BIG question!! They make such a cute couple. I can't wait to meet him :-) Lacey is a special person and Brandon is a lucky guy....but he's going to have his hands full, cuz there's nobody else in the world like her!!

So on with our Christmas Day... We waited for Darren to get off work and then we woke up the kids. We had a great time that morning looking at what Santa had left for us! Hailey loved her Bride Barbie!I think they were a little overwhelmedPedro even got some new goodies from Santa!

Then on Thursday we went to Monkey Joe's to hang out with my best friend from High School and her family. She went to church with Darren and I so she really has known us for a lot longer than that. Her husband is a preacher at a church in Alabama so they came here to see her family for Christmas. This is Katie and Me. She is expecting her second baby in March. I'm so excited for her. She is having her first little girl!! She is going to go broke buying all the cute little outfits, shoes, bows, etc. that you don't get to buy when you have a boy :-) Here is Hailey, Konnor (Katie's son -He's 2), and Jack. We ate at Zaxby's after our playdate!
Then that evening the kids got busy painting birdhouses. This was their Christmas present from Konnor and they loved it!!
Jack was very serious about the green!

And Hailey had such a great time! She made sure she painted every spot she could. She even figured out how to mix the colors to get new ones! They can't wait to hang them up on our BIG trees when we get to move to our new house. Thank you Aunt Katie, Uncle Jeremy, and Konnor!! Can't wait to see you again!
