Countdown to WDW! 13 days!


Now that Christmas is over, we can now start our countdown to Walt Disney World! (Yes we are going AGAIN) We leave on the 10th and will be back home on the 17th. Since we were there on Christmas last year, we are looking forward to the lesser crowds during this trip. There shouldn't be near the volume of people which should make it a little more pleasant, even though we did LOVE being there on Christmas last year. I will leave you with a pic of us from last Christmas in WDW!

Have a Holly, Jolly Christmas

Rob and I spent Christmas in Oneonta with my family this year. We went down on Wednesday (Christmas Eve) and stayed until Sunday. It was great seeing everyone and enjoying a relaxing weekend with the people that we love.

Merry Christmas!

Sibling love...wow it took a long time :)

Opening one last present!

Dad, Jacob and Sadie acting like...well I really don't know what they were acting like?

Smith Family Christmas

On Saturday we celebrated Christmas with the Smiths (my dad's family). We had a really wonderful day and after a stressful week with my grandfather we all realized just how blessed we are to have such a wonderful family. Here's a slideshow with some highlights.

Crafty Crafty!


First off let me say I LOVE MONOGRAMMED stuff! Rob is really tired of seeing our initials but I just can't get enough of it! I would paint our monogram on the walls if I didn't think Rob would leave me. ;) I mean I have my initials on almost every tote bag that I own, my key chain, and even a monogrammed sticker on the back of my car! Well, Karla and I have decided we want to be crafty so we keep making Michael's and Hobby Lobby runs. This is my first real craft and for a novice I think I did pretty well! AND IT HAS MY INITIALS SO IT'S WONDERFUL!

Please excuse the picture quality because it was dark in my living room and it was taken with my blackberry because I was too lazy to track down the camera! :)

Happy Birthday Karla!

We celebrated Karla's birthday Friday night with dinner at P.F. Changs and then listened to music at Humphrey's. It was a great night away from thinking about finals and all of the Christmas shopping still left to do!

I LOVE Christmas!



We finally got the outdoor decorations up, which include a snowman and wreath with a spotlight. I'm so impressed with our neighborhood! We are usually the only ones that do anything (and goodness knows we don't do much) but this year quite a few houses actually decorated outside. Thank goodness the ones close to our house aren't too cheesy! Looks like everyone's got the Christmas spirit this year!

Going to the Movies!


Last night, Rob and I went to see "Four Christmases" with Vince Vaughn and Reese Witherspoon. It is a very cute and VERY funny movie, with a good holiday message! Of course, I am a huge fan of both Vince Vaughn and Reese Witherspoon!!! It was a very nice escape from the crappy work and school week I have had! Everyone should go see the movie and ENJOY!

I need...


I need this lamp in our computer room! I found it at 2modern.com! Isn't it so cute and it would match our computer room, which is blue and green!

People are amazing!

Wednesday night when we got into Oneonta we had dinner at Mi Casita. After dinner Dad needed gas and when we pulled up to the pump this is what we saw. If you can't tell what is going on in the picture let me explain. This lady apparently either forgot which side of the car her gas tank was on OR doesn't understand how easy it is to pump gas. Instead of turning her car around OR going to another pump, she chose to reach the gas nozzle OVER her car. This was one of the funniest things I have ever seen! Can we say WOW? Notice her license plate is from TENNESSEE, not Alabama....what a relief!

What a weekend!

Rob and I had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend with GREAT family and friends! We left for Oneonta on Wednesday night and drove home early Saturday morning. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving with LOTS of great food! Apparently, we were too busy eating to worry about taking pictures.
Saturday night we attended an Alabama/Auburn/Mark's 40th birthday party at Mark and Sharry's. We had a good time, even though there were some sad faces at the end of the game...but MY FACE WAS HAPPY!! RTR!!!

Mark's "trying to be sad face"

Rob's SAD face!

Finally!!!!!!
