GOODBYE 2009! IT WAS A WONDERFUL YEAR!!!
I got this shark for Andy for Christmas (we did five one-dollar items for each other). I took a picture of the before, but I can't find it. So here is what the final growth looked like. It tripled in size! I know it's stupid, but simple things excite me.
Tonight was Andy's work's annual Christmas Party, which means White Elephant gifts! Andy & I took a printer (BRAND NEW) and a conch shell lamp thing, and ended up with an Herb Grow Kit and this darling wooden lady ;). Poor Brady & Shawnee ended up getting the conch shell for the SECOND YEAR in a row! LOL! I don't think that conch will ever die!
Our little niece, Molly, was born today! She was born at 1:07 AM. She weighed 6 lbs 12.5 oz, and was 19 inches long. Such a tiny lil' thing, but SOOOO CUTE!!! This isn't the best picture, but it's all I got. Congrats, Nat, Casey, & big brother, Benson!
Tonight was the Haws family Christmas party. We do a gift swap every year that is something I really look forward to. I love spending time with this family! They are all so hilarious! I took a different picture for my picture of the day, but it was blurry so I decided to use this one. This is Cory, Benson, and Brady chillin on the same couch. So precious!
Today was my Kap family Christmas party. We ate some delicious soups and had fun playing some wild crazy games! This is a picture of my niece, Jerzee, just hanging out on the gym floor. She also became a proud big sister today. My brother and sister-in-law had little Jaxon during our family party. Jaxon was born at 1:20 pm. He weighed 7 lbs 14 oz and was 21 1/2 inches long. 
Merry FIRST Christmas to us! Our first Christmas together was wonderful! I would definitely say it has been my best one yet, and it wasn't because of the money that was spent. It was because of the company! I loved spending the entire day with my hubby! He truly is my best friend, and I could NEVER get sick of spending time with him!
I made these cute Nutter Butter Rudolphs for the Barker family Christmas party tonight. They were so easy to make, and I just think they are so cute! The family party was a lot of fun! 
Andy & I went to a live nativity that my really close friends put on every year tonight. It is something I MUST do every year before Christmas because it is the one thing that really gets me in the true Christmas spirit. I adore this pageant so much because of the message!
Today was the last day of work for me before Christmas Break, but I wasn't really looking forward to this day. The principal at one the schools I work at, has been moved to a junior high school, and today was his last day at my school. I have worked with this guy ever since I got hired. He is such a wonderful principal! I really am going to miss having him around, but he is on to bigger and better things & I am positive he will do an amazing job! At the Christmas sing-a-long this morning, Santa came to bring the principal a special gift from the school. It is a picture of all the students and faculty. My friend, Amanda, took the picture for us, and it really turned out amazing!
