Catching Up






















December 28th was my last day ever at Williams Brothers. It was a sad day and I mis the people and the customers dearly but with basketball season in full swing I decided to part ways.
 
I walked in for my shift and the girls all had black on and had decorated the doorway with a black trashbag...
 
 
They then had ice cream cake which was yummy!!!
 
 

I received The Power of a Praying Wife from my mom for Christmas and I finished it up just a few days after Christmas...it was so good!
 
 
I scored this scarf on sale for less than $12 a few weeks ago....I bought it for my bestie, Brittany, for her birthday but I had to get one too! They no longer have this color but they have a navy/burgundy that is just as cute :).

These two cuties love cheering at basketball games..the one on the right is one of the coaches daughters.
 
 
We're excited to bring in 2016...can you tell???
I made the famous monster cookies just for Todd (hey Todd!!) and they were a hit!

We got to celebrate the new year with our nephew....he was a champ!


LJ turned 1 on December 30 but we celebrated him on January 3rd at our house!


He is such a ham!

He loved his cake :).

It was such a fun party :).
 
That evening we hosted some of the youth for dinner (it was their Christmas party) and then we took them back to the church for presents and games. We adults stayed too and played along with them!
 
 

This first game was so fun and I was in charge of taking pictures!
They wrapped a present multiple times and we had to put sunglasses, gloves, and a scarf on while the person to our left (or right I don't remember) rolled 2 dice and had to get doubles. Once they got doubles you had to pass the present and attire to the next person.

Silly boys!

My brother & Shirley were so funny together!
 
We then played 5 minute-to-win-it games.

This game we had to get an oreo from our forehead into our mouth with using only our face. Our group had to use mini chocolate bars because we ran out of oreos.

This game we had to get cotton balls into the bowl by picking it up with a spoon.


Stacking blocks as high as you could without them falling over...

...and some more oreos eating :).
 
We had so much fun with the youth that night!!

  1. You hosted a great party dear and the location you chose for party was also spacious and great for a fun party. Last week, I celebrated my son’s birthday at New York event venues and invited all friends and relatives and that was absolutely great.
