Hello Out There
I knew it had been a little while since I've made any posts, so I thought I'd add a couple of pictures to say hello. Scott and I have been keeping busy, but I haven't kept the camera out as much as I usually do. We did catch a few photos while we were watching Houston last weekend. He is growing up so fast and is too funny to watch just laughing at everything these days. I loved these pictures of he and Scott, especially the one with them watching TV. Houston loves to watch TV and will just start laughing randomly - it's hysterical!

A New Friend, McCoy
Before an enjoyable birthday brunch for Katie, we met up at Terri and Josh's to meet their new baby, McCoy. He is the cutest and most lovable thing!

Busy, but FUN Christmas
I had a whirlwind Holiday time, getting to spend time with family and loved ones. Scott and I started off having our Christmas a week early and we had a nice night with a home cooked Indian meal, good wine and lot of presents! The funniest part had to be when Scott opened his shoes that I got him and noticed that they were two different styles! :D Whoops - a trip back to the store was needed after that.
The night before I left to go home, I headed to Jo's for a wonderful Christmas party with an ornament exchange - FUN! Her little Bailie is getting cuter and cuter all the time and is the most well behaved and happy baby I think I've ever seen! But how could she not be so happy with such happy and smiley parents! She was super cute in her Santa outfit.
When flying home, I first got to visit Katie which was SO NICE! It's so hard living far away from great friends, but I guess it just makes us appreciate them all the more when we do see them. I could hardly sleep the night there because I was so excited to see Tyler the next morning (he was asleep when I got there and Katie wouldn't let me wake him up). :D I hadn't seen him since he was about 3 months, so it was awesome to see him crawling and walking with help all around now. What a cutie! Katie is such a wonderful mother as I always knew she'd be.
Next I got to see my other best friend, Tara in Chattanooga. I had a wonderful night at her parents' house eating yummy food from Charleston and having great conversation - I LOVE her family!
Christmas Eve was spent at my Grammy's in Atlanta with all the McAninch family. I always love going to Grammy's because I know there will be card playing and games, which I love! We had an amazing dinner (Thanks, Grammy!), opened too many presents (thanks everyone!) and had a great time together. Isn't my uncle the cutest? He has such a sweet personality and is a joy to be around. He reminds me a lot of my dad, too which is always a wonderful treat.
The plan was to drive home to Chattanooga on Christmas morning, but an emergency brake that was stuck prevented that and more visiting that had been planned (sorry Mark, Anne and Katie! Miss you guys!). I ended up going over to Aunt Sandee's family's for Christmas Day celebrations and had a great time over there. I hadn't seen them in many years, but they made me feel at home super easily and made my Christmas wonderful - thank you guys so much! I did make it back to Chattanooga the day after Christmas thanks to a tow and a fix by the Volvo service guys and met up with Nancy for a wonderful day. We ate at the Crackle Barrel (LOVE Southern food) and had a great walk where I could take pictures of beautiful Chattanooga. Even in the winter, look how pretty it is!
Once back home in San Diego, it was great to see Scott again. I even donned some of his Christmas presents Packers wear for a game we went to watch. I don't recommend being away from your significant other for Christmas - too hard! Thanks everyone for making my Christmas a wonderful time, though!
