They Finally Meet!

I am having blogging withdrawals! So here I go.....

What a crazy week it has been. Kaitlin arrived home Tuesday, Chrysti, Joe and the girls on Wednesday, celebrated Thanksgiving on Thursday....ate way too much, Rickey, Zelda, Shawn, Misty and the girls arrived on Friday.......We had 19 people sleeping under my Mom and Dad's roof!!!! Beautiful Chaos...to say the least. I absolutely love nothing more though. Our two families get along so well and it is such a blessing. Mine and Zach's nieces just love each other and had a ball playing all weekend. Julie refers to Carly and Katie Beth as her cousins....her God Cousins....since they aren't blood related. So sweet!

At the hospital, there are rules that anyone under the age of 12 can't come into the rooms for obvious reasons.....but because of the Swine Flu, no one under the age of 18 could even come into the actual hospital. So none of my nieces got to see Zoe Jane the day she was born....not even in the nursery. So Wednesday was an exciting day for all of them!

And on Friday, Zoe Jane finally got to meet her Granddaddy. Because of Rickey's work schedule, he couldn't make it up for her birth. So this meeting was long overdue!

Later that day, Zoe Jane met her Aunt Misty, Uncle Shawn, Katie Beth and Carly.

This little girl is SO LOVED!

Updates Soon!

Life has been quite crazy with family in town and all the events of the week! I will update soon! But for now I leave you with beautiful pictures of my little baby girl!

November 27th.....

I am thankful for safe travels! Tomorrow, we are celebrating Zoe Jane's baptism into the Church! What an exciting day! Our family is traveling this weekend to celebrate with us. I pray for everyone traveling, anywhere, and am grateful for safe arrivals.

Today, I am also grateful for Alabama's 12th W of the season....Gators here we come! Zoe Jane enjoyed her first real Bama game....UT Chattanooga doesn't really count. She can't wait to wear her cheerleading uniform next year!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

November 26th......

I am so thankful for this absolutely gorgeous, perfect day that I get to spend with my family, eating, relaxing, and just enjoying one another's company. I am thankful for afternoon naps, too!

I hope all of you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

I am so thankful for the generosity of our family, friends and coworkers. We have been so blessed by all the wonderful gifts, thoughts and prayers from all of you! Thank you so much!

Black Friday

I am so excited this year for Black Friday. I have already been doing my research on all the local stores to see all the great deals. This year we have good reason to go shopping on the this crazy morning.....I know a lot of you think people are insane to get out on Black Friday, but it is so worth it! This year Zach and I need this.......
HHGregg and Lowe's have these items on sale! We also are looking for a good deal on hardwoods and carpet, so Lowe's will probably be our choice of store on Friday. I am keeping my fingers crossed that we have good luck! I am so tempted to head over to Carter's and OshKosh too....but we will see how Lowe's goes first....and how much sleep I get Thursday night!
