So Im the primary blogger on this site so I can brag and say whatever I want to say right? Well lets start by saying that my husband is the MOST precious man I have ever known. He thinks of others first, gives everything he has and loves to see peoples dreams come true. The neatest thing about watching his life as his wife is watching God open the windows of heaven and bless him with everything he ever desires....its incredible!! He saw me...wanted me....got me.....God's divine grace...he wanted to run the family business...well he not only gets to do that but that excels at the level unamaginable!! Then theres the little thing like this.....he being a good ol Tennesse boy loves Country Music!! I love it to being born and raised in Texas!! He always wanted to got the CMA awards in Nashville...but not just go...go VIP! Well, once again once of his little dreams came true. Some of our very dear friends who own a Chevy Dearlership invited us to go with them VIP (Chevy was the premiere sponsor!) it was amazing!! We met everyone and had a ball!!
This was taken at Phipps Mall in Atlanta...we went to see Santa with some friends of ours...yea didnt go so well..Caroline was terrified!! This is daddy trying to convince her he was nice...it was a nightmare....when I got the pics of her on his lap all you could see were her tonsils!!

Our friends Nathan and Stephanie Chapman (Nate is Taylor Swifts Producer.....STeph is a star song writer!) This was right before the CMA's!!


My cowboy and I after the CMA's



After Chevy Party the night before at Sambuca....heard all sorts of private concerts!!




One of my best friends got married in Charleston, SC at the Citadel the first weekend in November......I have waited for stephanie culberson to meet "the one" for a very long time....she met him...his name is Andy Strand and he is a stud! Perfect for her...they are living in Germany now and doing great. The wedding was picture perfect...as it should be when you are as flawless as Stephanie...however....it was the beginning of a very sick month for me......for started just before the wedding I found out I was expecting my second child...which was great...but that brought all the symptoms......Jonathan and I had also been invited to the Country Music Awards the next week....so last minute we dediced to take the doll to the wedding in Charleston.....so my thoughts of flying alone with my husband, staying in the gorgeous romantic room that I had booked at the Planters Inn and enjoying a wedding day of dancing turned out a bit different! I knew that I could not leave my baby for four days while at the wedding and then come home to leave her three more....so it had to be the wedding. Jonathan was great! I had so many wedding festivities to attend as a bridesmaid...he hung out with the doll while I prayed for strength every minute as I fought extremem naseau and a baaadddd cold coming on which included a fever of 101 for three days (remember when you are preggers you cant take anything!) But I got through it and we still had fun. We actually used a babysitting service a few nights for Caroline...we loved the sitter so much we offered to move her to Tennessee for a full time nanny position!! Negoriations are still pending!! It was a start of a long week!!
The beautiful bride and I at the reception!

My precious family on King Street looking for a "kid friendly" place to eat our first night!!


Sweet baby girl!! I love those toothers!!




At Jonathan's Rotary Chili cook off!!



So one of the people I know has wanted to be in love for sooo long is Lauren Murray....a true romantic...a woman I always believed...that whoever did get her would be so lucky! This is a pic at her engagement party with my other friend Becca Lay! Lauren and Phillip Garner will be married just a few days before Christmas at St. Simons Island.....so excited for them!!!
In our town we have an annual Apple Festival...it's always great fun! This year we met up with some friends...well they had this display of playhouses.....lets just say that I could not convince my 16 month old to get out of the loft...it was not a pretty scene...when she throws these fits I always look at her daddy and say "I want a pony!!" which is exactly what I think she is saying!!

Sweet Daddy and Caroline at J Alexanders after church!!
