AC/DC

Jason and I have been waiting 8 years for AC/DC to come out with a new album and go on tour again. And it finally happened. Tickets went on sale and I was there waiting in line for 2 1/2 hours to make sure we got our tickets. So on Dec. 10th we finally got to go to the sold out show. It was my first time and Jason's 3rd time seeing them and all I can say is that the concert was one of the best I have ever been to!

Black Friday!

The last 3 years we havn't been able to go to the mountains for Thanksgiving so my Mom and I have made it a tradition to get out of bed and go shopping on Black Friday. We have never had to really get anything, we just like to go for fun. But this year was way different. My 2 sisters in law decided to join us for a crazy morning because this year I was on mission to get everything I wanted and they had to get what they wanted. We started off our day by getting up at 3 am then off to Kohl's we went. I didn't really have to get anything there just wanted to go for fun. So one of my sisters and I took off to Walmart so we could get there by 5. Jason met me there and as soon as Walmart said it was 5 am we went to town getting everything on our list. Then we took off to Target because they opened at 6 am. We waited in line and as soon as they opened the door we were off. I had a camera, dvd players for the truck, 2 movies, and 2 memory cards before Jason even got to the back of the strore. I was a maniac and so were the rest of my sisters. They got all the toys they needed and helped me score all my toys for the kids. After Target we ate breakfast then went to the mall and Toys R Us. We had so much fun and I was so exhausted by the end of the day I came home and slept until 8:30 pm. Thanks girls for such a fun day. Can't wait to do it all again next year.

My sister in law who is 8 months pregnant and me at 4 in morning!

Dance Class!

Maddix had her very first dance recital for Christmas. This was just a little one to show the parents what they have been working on and to also help prepare the girls for the big one in April. Daddy, Brady, and Grandma were lucky enough to come and watch her. She did so great and we are so proud of her. After wards we had a little party for the girls and parents. Then we took her out to lunch and of course all she wanted was Neds Crazy Sub. She loves that place.


We could not get her to put down her cookie for the pictures.

She was pretty happy afterwards and we could not get her to sit still for a picture.

Some of the fun we have been up to in November!

Hope everybody had a happy Thanksgiving because I know we sure did! We had such a great day. I love my family and I'm very grateful for everyone and everything we have in our lives. We are very blessed!

I love this picture so much. I love my kids with all my heart. Maddix and Brady keep us laughing nonstop. They are very happy kids. It's crazy to look at this picture Brady looks like a little boy and not a baby anymore . Where does the time go?

Maddix loves making pies with my dad. So the day before Thanksgiving they spent a couple of hours making 2 pumpkin pies, a cherry pie, a chocolate pie and a lemon pie.



Maddix had her Thanksgiving program at school and she did so great! Daddy, Brady and Grandma all got to come and watch her!
She was singing a song here about a turkey.
She was an Indian in their little skit.

And at the end of everything they passed out corn bread that they had made for us. She was so proud of herself and I know we were really proud of her.


She was pretending to be turkey and I just had to get pictures because that hat is too cute on her. I know I want to gobble her up.

I love Maddix's Pre-School, they always get to do the funnest stuff. We went to a farm where the kids got to feed a goat, rabbit, hold chickens, pet a turkey, go on a hay ride, and ride a horse. They were also letting you milk a goat and drink the milk but as good as that sounded we passed on the idea. Although lots of people tried it and liked it.





My kids are crazy for animals. As soon as Brady sees any type of animal he goes nuts and starts screaming in laughter. It cracks us up.
