Test Run

Christmas decorations are a favorite around this house. Phillip and I love putting them up. Taking them down is actually faster than putting them up so it's no big deal to put away either. Then on Christmas Day my family came to our house in Panama City. I got a great shot of most of the guys playing poker I think, Grandaddy, my adopted brother Gabe, and my dad. Later I got a good shot of Josiah opening his presents from Uncle Phillip and Aunt Deedle. One of the puppies decided to help too:)!!






The day after Christmas we let Gabe play with his new skates we got him on our driveway. Phillip and I both got out our skates as well. We had lots of fun. And then we took him to the park with Grandma. Grandma and Phillip played Cribbage while I swung Gabe around on the playground toys.










January 1st was when Crystal and I threw a Bach. Party for Ashley, our new sister-in-law. The 2 of us actually made the cake. It was french Vanilla with Crystal's own recipe for icing, very yummy:)!! I made one of the mini glasses look like it was spilling out onto the cake. Everyone seemed to have enjoyed it.






The wedding of the new year finally happened on Jan. 3rd. I don't have all the pics downloaded as of yet, but my Meme, stepmom's mom, gave me a few and I scanned them to share. She got one of Phillip's Parents, the Hendersons, and me in my bridesmaid dress. The wedding was absolutely beautiful!
