Big Green Egg


I think we've got an "EGG HEAD" on our hands! This will take Nate's grilling to a whole new level!

Christmas Eve









We enjoyed a wonderful brunch with my Dad, Nancy, and Cayce's family on Thursday morning! Good food, great gifts, and best part was the company! My dad made my sister and I corn hole games! Mine has a Clemson logo and Nate's has the Citadel! So much fun! I am sure we will put it to good use in our cul de sac and during tailgating next fall. I love my Dad's handmade gifts and it makes me feel so special that he takes the time to make us something unique and one of a kind. I love you Dad!
Christmas Eve we attended church with Mimi, Pops, and Michael and our dear neighbors the Cunninghams. The service was awesome and put us all in the right frame of mind to receive the best gift of all....our Lord Jesus Christ. Right before we left for church, Nate was surprised by the arrival of a Big Green Egg! He cooked an amazing dinner for us of BBQ chicken and we were all impressed by his culinary expertise using this new "man tool."
Christmas Eve we opened gifts with the Snyders and put the girls to bed for Santa! Ho Ho Ho!

Christmas Tree Hunt








Nana and Greg (and Maggie too!) joined us at Mystic Farm yesterday to pick out the perfect Christmas tree. I really don't feel like our house is complete without a live tree and I love the Leland Cypress lot at this farm. I think we found a beautiful one!

Claire's First Grade Thanksgiving Feast



Claire celebrated Thanksgiving with her 1st grade class by having a feast! Camdyn came too and big sister made an Indian headband for her! So sweet! These girls are two of the blessings I am most thankful for.


Thanksgiving at Mom's House






Here are some pictures from Thanksgiving at Mom's house this past weekend. We started a new tradition in making crafts with the kiddos! This year we made pilgrim hats and made wreath ornaments for the Christmas tree. We also celebrated Reese's and Mom's birthdays! I am so thankful for my sweet family. Love you all!
