Crusin in a cow pasture as it looks like Christmas!

Well, Auburn lost to Bama this year!

Sad day yesterday in the Law home but it was a great game with some great moments....but it would have been better if Auburn had pulled it out! :) :)

We have had a beautiful weekend! This weather has just been great! I wish it would stay this clear and warmer year around!

Because the weather was so nice yesterday, we decided to get all decked out into our Auburn gear and enjoy Pizza Hut and the land in Piedmont before the big game!

While we were in Piedmont, Tyler and I shot guns and then we decided to let the girls drive Tyler's truck! Yep, oh the memories that were made!

It was hilarious watching Alexis and Lily 'drive!'

Lily just did the steering wheel...and if it is any indication for how she will be once she is old enough.........oh goodness me! She was more busy laughing and not looking at where she was going than driving good! She has a lot to learn! :)

Alexis asked to push the pedals.............so her Daddy let her!

She thought she was SO big! She did....okay....at driving! She didnt know how to do the gas at first so she would press it hard and then slam the break. She finally started catching on toward the end!

Those poor cows....

feared for the lives a couple of times! :)

This morning we had Church and then headed to Moes for some delicious lunch! We always love Moe's! :) We were supposed to meet Gran and Ben for a movie but they ended up going all the way to Oxford so we missed them. We took a rain check and will go ahead sometime. Now, come tomorrow....the fun is over and we are back in the groove again!
We worked on the final touches of our Christmas decorations for this year...and I have to say, this is my most favorite that I have done! :)

The mantel in the living room!

In the dining room!

Tree in the dining room

I love this with the snowflakes!

Yet another tree in the dining room! :)

The entrance hall!

Lily's little tree!

Alexis' little tree! The pictures doesnt do any of the decorations justice to me! They are sooo much prettier in real life! :)

Saturday fun day on the land! These two silly girls were having a great time playing in the back of Daddy's truck!

Watching Daddy get his guns ready

And.....the moment they were waiting for! Driving! Lily didnt know what to think! Thank goodness the cows know how to move fast!

Alexis thought she was SO big!

First day of Advent at Church! My little Christmas princess!!

My two little Christmas princesses!!

Snow Queen!

Love these two!

Ambereveryday2015!

Day 323
Love seeing these kiddos loving Awana's! They are having such a great time with it! This past night's was 'backwards day!'........so they wore their skirts high and their shirts the wrong way! :)

Day 324
LOVED celebrating these sweet girls! Love them! {Their Awards Ceremony!}

Day 325
Alexis did great on her conduct grade on her Wednesday folder so she got to do 'cool cash' on Friday! She chose 'wear a hat'....'wear boots' and 'watch a movie at school' for a total of $3.00! :) Lily wanted me to take a picture of her because she loved that her boots matched her t-shirt!  :)

Day 326
Meeting Santa for the first official time this year! So cute! This also was the first Saturday that we didnt have a football game to get to! We didnt know what to do with ourselves today so we loaded up and found things to do! We had a great lunch, shopped, saw Santa and then the girls jumped at The Factory!

Day 327
Sunday and it was beautiful! After Church, lunch and errands, we came home and loved on Tickles! :)

Day 328
Monday FUN day! First official day off for Thanksgiving!!! We loaded up and went back to The Factory to let them play! {Yes, we love this place} and then came home and played outside the rest of the afternoon! It was a perfect day!

 I have TWO highlights on this day!! :) :) Ella Jingle came that morning! She is BACK! And...whew, she has been helping me!! :) :)

 Day 329
Tuesday we had another fun day! Lily had her Thanksgiving party at her school so Tyler and I took Alexis ice skating in Birmingham! We had a great day with just her! :)

Day 330
We are already into day 2 of eating galore...which was nice because on this day before we ate at Nan's and then on this day at Gran's.........but the highlight is THIS! :)....this sweet cat loves sitting under the tree...BUT, this year I am not a nervous wreck because he doesnt care about destroying it this year like he did last year! :)

Day 331
Happy Thanksgiving!!! Thankful for my little family of four!!

Day 332
We had a lazy day on our last Friday before school and work started back. Since I had to take Lily to the doctor for an ear infection...we curled up and did a lot of resting and movie watching! We did go to get special things for our Angel from the Angel Tree later on which was a super highlight too........oh, and eat at Los Mex! YUM! :)

Day 333
Saturday! IT is GAMEDAY....and LOOK what the girls woke up to this morning! Ella Jingle made them Rudolphs!! :) Unlike the last time Ella Jingle did this, this time.............they both thought it was super funny! :) {AND.....Lily thought Ella Jingle needed to make her WHOLE nose red instead of just the tip..so she took it upon herself to get the red marker...that Ella left out.. and she colored the rest of her nose!} Oh me, this girl!!  {And, Ella Jingle was SUPER nervous that she was about to be busted because Alexis is a light sleeper and rolled over and therefore Ella Jingle had a big fear that Alexis' eyes were about to bust open and be staring right at her!!} :) :) :)  Whew.....

Remember this! Circa 2012.............yeah, Alexis was NOT a fan of Ella Jingle making her a Rudolph! :)

And of course....has to be another highlight on this day! We are ready for the game! We wear orange and blue around here on days like this!! :) Waaaaaar Eagle!!

Thanksgiving 2015!

We had a great Thanksgiving and boy is the week flying by!

I just dont know why if I was at work, the week would drag but when I am out a week....it flies!

We went to Gran's house Wednesday night and enjoyed dinner with Nannie, Hogan, Pam and Richard.

Then yesterday was Thanksgiving!!

I have so much to be thankful for and I am just so blessed! There is always, always, always something to be thankful for even when there is darkness!

We enjoyed the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade before getting ready for lunch at The Classic with Nan, Pawpaw and Brandi.

It was packed! There were a ton of people enjoying Thanksgiving lunch there! And, it didnt disappoint as always!

We had just enough time to come home and I cooked up some things to take to LaLa's!

The girls have been so excited all week to go to her house and kept asking when we were leaving every 5 minutes!

We enjoyed round 2 of Thanksgiving food and playing Aunt Pam's games! Yes, Aunt Pam's games are something else...but we all had a lot of laughs which was great!

Now, it is the end of the week and we are enjoying the beautiful weathered day today and soaking up the last little bit before we have to go back to work and school Monday!

Lily and I went to the doctor this morning. Poor thing has an ear infection. We got her some medicine and then planning on shopping for our little girl from the Salvation Army Angel Tree tonight and sending her gifts off for her. Her name is Lily....like our Lily, and I hope the girls understand that we are helping her have a great Christmas and that Christmas is about giving more than receiving!

Lily enjoying pie and both of them enjoying Monster's INC movie at Gran's Wednesday night!

 Happy Thanksgiving!! Big Turkey!

Little Turkey!

Big and little Turkey! :)

This girl! She is getting too big for her britches!!  A peace sign and 'kissy lips' OH me! :)

My little family of four!

Nan and Brandi with the girls!

They adore Margie! They both were fighting over her lap! :)

This crazy crew. Alexis and Lily really enjoy having someone their own age to play with at family get togethers now!

The girls! :) :)

Look who is back!?!? Ella Jingle has been sad the past couple of days without her magic! Lily touched her several days ago..................and the rule is................... no touching Ella Jingle except for Mommy!.................so, she hasnt been doing anything. Well, Lily wrote a letter to Santa saying she was sorry for touching her and that she wanted Ella Jingle to have her magic back! Well, Santa must have approved because this morning Ella Jingle was in my tree!........and wearing Lily's hair bow! :) :)

She still looks adorable....even in a doctor's office! :)

Wordless Wednesday!

Feeding the Pilgrims and the Snow Princess!

We have had a mixture of fun today!

Out of no where....we had a spur of the moment trip to Birmingham today!

Lily bug went to school {I know, bummer right} but only because she was excited about her super fun Thanksgiving party and feast that they were having today!

So, she dressed in all black {because at school they were putting on the Pilgrim attire} and headed to school today!

Sooooo while she was in school, Tyler, Alexis and I headed to Birmingham to ice skate!!

It was an experience! We had SO much fun............and boy, it was a work-out too!

It was Alexis' and Tyler's first time to skate and might as well been mine because I think I went one time when I was like 13!.....

So, we did a lot of slow moves and praying we were not going to fall! :) :)

We did some shopping before heading home to freshen up and get Lily! We then headed to Nan's for dinner with her and Brandi and Pawpaw! YUM! :)

Busy...busy day yet again on our fun week off! Making sweet memories!

THIS girl! OH ME! I told her to smile so I could take her picture before she left for school this morning and she threw her hand up in a peace sign! I asked her what she was doing....and she said...'taking a picture like Sissy!' :) oh me!! :)

The Snow Princess! She would not let go of my hand...and Daddy's hand! She had to have both of our hands! She loved it when we went fast! She really wouldnt try it by herself but said that when she is older that she is going to skate around all by herself! :)

Daddy had a lot of fun skating! He did pretty good for an 'old guy!' :)

The family picture! :) We loved having a special day spent with just Alexis! It was a great day!

This girl is NO drama at all! :) She wanted to pose like this in front of the bear at Bass Pro Shop! :) We enjoyed shopping, looking at all the animals and fish and eating fudge while we were there!

The Pilgrim lady! She made this cute hat at school and wanted to wear it to Nan's house!

Alexis changed her dolls clothes before we left our house so she wanted me to take her picture with her doll! :)

OHHH....these two crazy silly girls!

Pawpaw read the Pilgrim girl a Christmas book! She kept asking him when Rudolph was going to be in the story! ha!
