4 Things

1.  Please go to here and request a catalog
2.  Go look at all of these SUPER CUTE clothes!
3.  Attend one of these trunk shows and buy something (or a bunch of somethings)!
4.  As you are looking through your catalog, look for this familiar face:



The photographer who took some of the pictures for the catalog picked Eli to be a part of the photo session back in November. Before you look at these pictures, I am putting a little disclaimer...The day these were taken, it was cold and rainy outside. All of the kids were troopers though. The weather actually seemed to bother Eli more than it did the other kids but oh well. I am still very proud of him!

Here is Eli in the Blessed Be the Name Spring 2010 catalog

It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year

I just LOVE Christmas! I could probably say that I was more excited about it than the boys this year. I got about 1 or 2 hours of sleep Christmas Eve because I was just waiting to hear those sweet little feet running across the floor to come and let us know that Santa had come. There's just nothing like it! We spent lots of our Christmas Eve and Christmas Day traveling around town visiting family. We have the BEST family! We are so blessed!

Here is our Christmas in pictures...

Our Christmas Eve tradition. Jay reads the boys "The Night Before Christmas" before we put them in bed. He has done this since Sam was in my big ole pregnant belly :)




Sam always wakes up with the most awesome hair!

Take 3


I took the boys to Brookwood Mall today to finish up some last minute shopping and for them to see Santa one more time before he heads back to the North Pole. Third time seeing Santa and Luke still has the same response....


Oh well! There's always next year!

Fun December Day

Is it just me or does it seem like this month is flying by?! We have filled our December schedule full of so many Christmas things that I feel like we are running all over the place all the time. Today was the first Saturday this month where we got to spend most of the day at home (or at least close to home). We started out our morning at our community Christmas parade. It was SOOOOOO CCCOOOOOOLLLLLDDDD out but the boys still enjoyed grabbing up all the candy that their little frozen solid fingers could get!



Luke was the warmest one of the bunch!

He's in there somewhere!





After the parade and lunch we came home to see Santa ride through our neighborhood



My little elves


Then it was time to decorate cookies!
