Finally Caught up!

Check out the posts I finally got up! There are quite a few!

Bryce's Bday is the 1st of February... I told him that I was planning his Bday and I was taking over Valentine's Day this year too! For his birthday, he went on a scavenger hunt for one of his presents... At the end were...

LADY ANTEBELLUM TICKETS!!!

We had an absolute blast!! I even bought a whole new outfit and went to the salon and got my hair done! All of it was a secret from Bryce! When he got home from work, I had a candle light dinner ready (OK it was 5pm so it wasn't even dark yet, but it was the thought that counts!).

Thompson Square opened and they were really good! I only knew one of their songs, but it was still a lot of fun! Next was Darius Rucker and man he was REALLY good! He is a dancing machine! He even sang a few Hootie and the Blowfish songs! Lady A was absolutely amazing! They played for nearly 2 hours! I'm so glad that we got to go! Bryce loves them!

Pine Wood Derby!

Coen and the other Cub Scouts got to participate in the annual Pine Wood Derby! Coen decided that he wanted his race car to be a red truck because that's what Bryce is hoping to buy soon! Coen and Bryce built the car together (ok Bryce did a lot of the work, but I have proof that Coen helped paint it!) Unfortunately I don't have all of our pics on the computer or I'd put more of the actual racing!

Christmas 2011!!

Wow Santa really blessed us this year! We had a great holiday together. First was Christmas morning with just the 3 of us! It was a lot of fun!
Guess what I got for Christmas!! A NEW HOUSE!! We moved in the week before Christmas! How insane is that! It's a 3 bedroom, 3 floor town home and I couldn't be more happy! We actually have room to breathe in this house! (More on the house later!! lets get back to the presents!!)

Coen was REALLY excited!!

Can you tell he just wanted to open presents and not take pics!!

Oh how I wish he could always be as angelic as he looks in this pic!!

(oh and presenting the BLOND Carly!)

Bryce finally got a video camera!

He's been wanting one for a while now!

Don't I have some good looking boys in my house!

Coen got the one thing he was BEGGING for!

A Nintendo DS!! with a few games

Thanks to Aunt Bri for selling it to us!

Does it get any happier than this pic??

I love you Bryce and thank you for another

wonderful year together and another wonderful holiday!

Cub Scouts! Lost Tooth!!

Bryce and I decided to sign Coen up for Cub Scouts. He hadn't ever heard of it and wasn't so sure about it at first, but he really likes having the "man time" with Bryce. It gave them something special to do that is for boys only and I think Coen really enjoys that aspect!

Coen also lost his first 2 teeth!! They both came out within a week of each other and no other teeth are moving at all! He was convinced that he'd lose all his teeth and never be able to eat again and he'd starve to death. Oh the minds of little kids!

Halloween 2011!!

Halloween this year was rather odd. I barely had a chance to decorate, we bought Coen's costume a week before Halloween, we didn't even take the time to think of costumes for ourselves, we didn't have any parties to go to... But we still had a fun night! I kept up the tradition of making a halloween themed meal! This year was Mummies and Mashed Potatoes with Bug Guts Gravy! (hey I have 2 boys living in my house... gross is fun here!)

Coen chose his own costume this year. He insisted on being an FBI agent! I think his costume is absolutely adorable and I love that he picked it out himself!
