We are still alive!!

Wow. These last few months have been so busy. To all of our loyal readers I'm so sorry. Most of you know that we bought a new home and moved in October. October, November, and December are also our busiest months with the fundraising business. We do about two thirds of our business for the entire year in these three months. We were blessed to be able to spend two weeks with our families for Thanksgiving and another two weeks for Christmas. On top of all that because of complications getting our phone and Internet transferred we didn't have a home phone or Internet at the new house until the day before we left for Christmas break. Austin did his work from his office in the old house, but when I was there I always had a two year old no toys wanting to go back to her new house so I spent as little time there as possible. Hopefully we are back up and running.

A few things that have happened since we were last on line are:

*Bailey's school program (hopefully post short video soon)
*Thanksgiving & Christmas fun
*My brother-in-law Tim almost won state in the 2AA football division
*Tim now moving up to 6AA head coach of the Searcy Lions - Yeah Tim!!
*Tim will also be one of the coaches in the Arkansas high school all star game.
*Celebrated Tim's 40th birthday
*Austin & Adam built an awesome clubhouse for grandkids at Mom & Dads (David working on it while were gone - will post pictures soon)
*Helped my brother Adam and his wife Amber move to Benton
*Painted and moved into our house (Bailey's room is too cute - will post pics)
*Went & watched Razorbacks play Old Miss, Florida, and LSU
*Went trick-or-treating with Ernie, Claudia & Ethan
*Celebrated New Years with lots of cousins, uncles, and aunts
*Went to Bailey's last class at the Little Gym (will post video)
*Celebrated Baileys 3rd birthday (already posted - yeah)

I know I am leaving some things out. It's hard to think back. We got a busy few months ahead, but having Internet at home helps. I can usually squeeze in a few minutes after Bailey goes to bed. I'll work on catching up. Until then..........

Happy 3rd Birthday Bailey!

Tuesday my baby turns three years old! We had the big party today. Bailey is into all things princess so we had a princess birthday bash. She was so excited the whole day. Austin and Papaw walked in with the two dozen balloons I had ordered and Bailey said "let the party begin". She couldn't wait to sink her teeth into the cake so we got that started pretty quickly. After a couple pieces of cake and lots of icing she went off playing an forgot all about presents. Later I reminded her of the presents and she told Mr. John Wayne "Come on, we gonna have another party"! She got lots of girlie gifts. The child has two rooms full of toys between Christmas and birthday. Several friends came to celebrate with us. Nana & Papaw, and Aunt Amanda, Taylor & Alex even drove in also. Thank you all for making Bailey's third birthday a special one. We love you guys!
