To Grandmother's House We Go

So, in case you didn't know 3 1/2 months is the new 10 years old. My sweet little independent boy is on his first trip to Grandma's house all by himself! Owen and Rebekah left yesterday morning to go to my parents' house, where I will join them Saturday morning.

I will not tell a lie, I was/am a little nervous about the whole expedition. But, I feel better knowing that he is with Bekah, who keeps him half the week, and my mom, who he loves just a little bit.



Andy was at work last night and Owen was at Grandma's. It was kind of weird last night having the bed all to myself. There was no one there to steal covers, spit up on me, wake me up with midnight snack demands, or make me so hot that I sweat (sleeping with two boys is like sleeping with two furnaces!). But, there was also no one to snuggle with and I kind of missed waking up to this smile.....



Hope everyone has a good weekend! Owen is having his first Phillips Family Christmas, it is sure to be a good time!

Christmas is Creeping Up

So, Christmas is creeping up on us way faster than I thought it would. I looked at the blog and realized I have not posted since Thanksgiving and Christmas is now only a week away!

In those few weeks we have been to Fredericksburg, Owen went to his first winery, we climbed Enchanted Rock, he met the Evans family for the first time ever, had his Grandma B come babysit him, finished Christmas shopping, baked holiday goodies, and so much more. Guess how many pictures of these events I am going to post? ZERO!! at least not right now, because for some reason I cannot seem to get everything together enough to load the pictures from the camera onto my computer!

So, you will have to be appeased by these photos from our Christmas Card session with world famous photographer Grandpa Gary. They turned out so great!






Merry Christmas!! I promise to post again a lot sooner than I did this past time, I just might shock you all with my rapid speed.

If I were a turkey...

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! We had a great time with lots of family and LOTS of food! Here are some pictures for you to enjoy.

Oh, and some good news the blog should now be fixed so that anyone can comment. So, comment away!
