Christmas and New Years

We had a wonderful Christmas together, it just keeps getting better as the boys get older. We had friends over for dinner after our church's Christmas Eve service. After the whirlwind of presents Christmas morning, we headed down to Birmingham to celebrate with my sister's family and my mom. As always, the kids loved being together and I enjoyed putting my feet up while the boys were entertained. We visited the zoo on Sunday to run off some excess energy and then headed back home.

We celebrated New Years in our traditional way with our friends Brent and Julie in Nashville. We went to the Brentwood Country Club for a fun casino night. We gambled with fake money and rang in 2010 at midnight.


As you can tell the boys weren't too sad to be left with a babysitter on New Years Eve

Brent and Julie's little girl loved Travis, we jokingly called him the baby whisperer all weekend, which is a reassuring thought as two newborns are headed our way!
