WAR EAGLE!!!!






To say the least we were so excited to make it to the game...it seems it was meant to be....with our plane being the last one to make it out on Sunday (due to weather) and being able to get GREAT priced tickets the Friday before the game. We had a GREAT trip!!! Dave and I both lost our voices for a few days from all the screaming and yelling, but it was well worth it.
p.s. The mini van made the trip even more fun:)

Loving all the snow

How does one stay warm in an old house



Just sit on the vent!!! I guess warmer clothes might help too. Emmie Grace really does get excited when the heat kicks on and runs to stay warm on the vent.

Christmas 2010













We so enjoyed watching Emmie Grace really get into Christmas this year. She loved doing her advent calender each night, reading about "baby" Jesus, wrapping presents for people, watching Elf, singing Jingle Bells and her "favorite song" Santa Clause Is Coming To Town, and so many other things. I loved that she ate most of Santa's cookies and milk and she loved reading The Night Before Christmas with her daddy. Christmas morning Santa did come and he brought EG's baby with a "pappy" along with several other surprises. Santa even surprised mommy with a Thomas train set which stole the show and is still doing so. After opening presents at our house we went on to the Coopers and then to my family. We had such a wonderful Christmas and we're so thankful to have the best family and friends to celebrate with.

Christmas Eve

We had a wonderful Christmas!!! One of the best things about living in town with both sides of our family is being able to celebrate with everyone around the holidays:) We had Christmas Eve lunch with Dave's family, then went to the candle light service at church, followed by dinner with my family. Emmie Grace had fun getting to play with all of her cousins in one day. You can tell that by the time we got to my parents house, we had all gone a little crazy. I think Brett was practicing some dance moves for his upcoming wedding.
