Christmas Lights 09

Birthday Celebration

We celebrated a little early with Aunt Lyn-Ann and Uncle Scott. Cookies with candles! We had fun singing and wishing on the candles. I got a bunch of great gifts. I get to do some shopping for clothes and shoes and I got a beautiful new necklace. The necklace is super special because it has Trevor, Avery, Dylan, and my birthstones on it. I am a lucky girl. On my real birthday Trevor was traveling so we went up to visit Grammy and Grampa Trussell for a fun night at the Magical Lights of Lake Lanier. A great thirty-first!

Post Thanksgiving Visit

Thanksgiving 2009

Giving Thanks

As 2009 draws to an end and the holidays are upon us, what better time than now to count my blessings!

FAMILY
I am so fortunate to have bumped into Trevor 7 years ago (he actually bumped into me,literally). He is a better husband and daddy than I could have ever imagined. I am grateful for his involvement in our children's daily life. He helps with most everything-they love it and I appreciate it! He also works very hard so that I can stay home and be with them everyday. Thank you Trevor! Love you!

Our children!Two of the cutest little buggers! I love them with all of my heart and try to make the most of each day we get to spend at home together. They bring us so much joy!

Mom and Dad and have set such wonderful examples and are always there for us! I am grateful for all you have done and continue to do for us, thank you! Your priceless advice, listening ears, and lending hands! I love you tons. My sisters, three of the most fabulous and totally different gals in the world. I love each one of you and look forward to the future as our families grow.

Tina and Bruce, I did marry into the best family in the world! How did I get so lucky. Thanks for all you do for the Atkinson family! Your two weeks here after Dylan was born was unbelievable! THANK YOU for making our adjustment from one child to two easier! I love you both and we miss you today! Scott and Lyn-Ann I wish we lived closer. Although after your visit this weekend you may be glad we live miles apart. I love spending time with you and can't wait until our February trip!

Our extended family and friends, you make life sweeter and we are so lucky to have you in our lives. Thanks for your love and friendship!

HEALTH

Ammy, Mani/Pedi

This morning we packed up and headed to Ammy's. The babes got to play with Ammy all morning while I snuck off to get my nails done. I picked an orangey red to be festive for Thanksgiving and the nail tech veered me into 2009 with a dark purple color. I had no idea that was the "in" thing. So now I am cool with short purplish nails. Hmmm! I guess two kids will make you lose touch with fashion. I guess I have some catching up to do! Thanks Mom for watching the babes I know they both had fun with you! We are looking forward to seeing a lot of you and Bamp over the next
month!

She is coming around!

Avery asked to hold her brother numerous times this weekend! She also wanted to help feed him a bottle!

We had birthday parties and turkey fry's this weekend! Lots of fun to enjoy with friends. Avery just loved her Ariel face painting! It looked a little more like airbrushing though!
