January

Wow, I can't believe January is almost over. You can call me the worst blogger ever. I deserve it. What have we been up to?

Ryan & Jackson took a quick road trip to Dallas to go to another Cowboys game. Ben & I had a wonderful weekend together at home.
(don't worry- he didn't ride in the front seat- this was just a snack break)

We celebrated my friend Ambre's birthday at Carrabbas and cheered for Texas to win.



Ben turned 8 months old on the 14th. He is a crawling machine and is pulling up on anything possible.

We enjoyed a perfect 70 degree day outside

GranMartha came over to play

We got a Wii! Ben is working on his balance.

We played.

We also hosted several playdates, got together with friends, watched American Idol, went to a preschool open house, started back up with Ladies Bible Class/Sonshine Class, installed a new fan in the living room, and went on a wonderful date. 2010 is starting out great!

The most exciting news this month is the birth of our future daughter-in-law, Ava Reese Campbell! Congratulations Jason & Lindsey!!!

Christmas in Dallas

We've been in Dallas since Tuesday visiting Ryan's family. We were welcomed with a perfect White Christmas (well the day we celebrated anyway)! It was so beautiful to look out the window and see the snow falling. We've enjoyed hanging out together, eating too much, playing on Nana's new Wii, playing games, watching movies, etc. Ryan and I even got to go on a date! We went to the mall to do some exchanging, got coffee and looked at books at Barnes & Noble, and saw The Blind Side. Loved it! Today the guys are at the Cowboys game. I don't think Ryan's ever been this excited...ever. :-)
Cheese!

Jackson always wants to be just like daddy.
