Christmas Eve Mass

The Fam

Proud Mimi with her grandbabies

Riley Kate insisted she have her picture taken with the baby Jesus. Honestly, she was quite upset that I would not let her pick up baby Jesus and hold him for the picture-haha!

Every year we attend Christmas Eve Mass with Jason's family, and it's always so wonderful! It really gets everyone in the Christmas spirit! After church, we go to Jason's parent's house for heavy hors d'oeuvres and drinks, and we always have so much fun visiting with family and acting silly with Uncle Matthew!! We had so much fun this year because the kids were so excited about celebrating Jesus' birthday and Santa coming--it was soooooo wonderful!

OUR ADDICTION!!

OUR ADDICTION!!
After the birth of Grayton, Jason and I began running and became highly addicted!! I soon made my first jogging stroller purchase, The Tike Tech all terrain single jogger. It was wonderful until I needed another seat for Riley Kate. I got this Dreamer Design off of ebay, and I love it! I call it my freedom and my sanity because I can load up the kids and go running whenever I feel like it! The kids love to stroll. They usually ask to go. We have run several races just for fun--Delta Jubilee 5K, Juke Joint Festival 5K, St. Jude 1/2 Marathon, Double Decker 10K, 300 Oaks 10K, etc. We love to run and if there is a race we can make it to, we'll run it!! We are running about 4 to 5 miles a day now with long runs of 7 to 12 miles on the weekends!

A LITTLE HOBBY OF MINE

A LITTLE HOBBY OF MINE
Since Grayton's 1st birthday, I have ventured out a bit and started baking and creating my kid's birthday cakes each year. Also, I am the homeroom mother for Grayton's class, so I am trying to get creative with my baking. I am not very good at it, but it is so much fun!! If anyone has any new cute ideas, share them with me.
