Oh, The Luxury....

A Florida Christmas

We went to Florida for Christmas

to see all of our family, it was

in the 80's all week with a

little Florida snow( rain) mixed in.

Lauren had a great time playing with her cousins

and we all had fun seeing each other again. Japanese dinner with the Kelley crew
Cousin Kim teaching Lauren piano
Off to Church Christmas eve

The Big 2

Lauren is 2 years old today,

we started out the day with

pancakes, then for lunch we

had her favorite meal of

spaghetti, followed up by

chocolate cupcakes. yum...

She has changed so much

since last year, she is saying

a few more things, but is also

very busy, she likes to hop,

jump and run now. she also

will cut her eyes at you if you tell her no. :)

Wow, what a difference a year

makes in a precious baby girl.

Festival Of Trees

Children's Healthcare of

Atlanta puts on a festival of trees

fundraiser every year, we took

Lauren & Ryan Saturday night

and had a great time, they

rode the carousel and then

the train ride andthe super slide.

A few of the trees, there were hundreds of decorated trees for sale

A Visit With Friends

Our friends Vicki & Darrin came

from Nashville this weekend to visit

with their son Ryan, we had a great weekend full of fun, we

went to the Georgia aquarium and

then to the festival of trees. We

are grateful for good friends

to spend fun times with.

Lauren's (UN) Birthday Party

For those of you who have seen
Alice in wonderland, they had an un birthday party in it, well, Lauren's birthday is not until
December 18th but we decided to have her party while the families were here at Thanksgiving, so we had Chuck E Cheese do all the work and we just went and played. Lauren and her friends had a lot of fun so it was a un birthday party sucess.
