Blogging Slacker

So I am WAY behind on blogging...we've been so busy here lately and I have NOT taken enough pictures of Ryleigh! We are so glad it's spring time and are enjoying the time change.
Here are some pictures of Ryleigh at A.C. Steere park last month when it was just a gorgeous day!
Excited to be going to the park!

Christmas Morning

Christmas morning, Ryleigh woke up a little after 7 and was ready to see what Santa had brought. Gifts from Santa...art table/easel and supplies, books, dvd's, and MOST imporantly...pink cupcake! Every time we would ask Ryleigh what she wanted Santa to bring her, she would say "pink cupcake". I think if he would have just brought her that, she would have been fine! :) Christmas morning I just made sure that she still wanted her pink cupcake...


Taking a peek around the corner to see what Santa brought!


She went right to the cupcakes! :)




Finger-licking good!

After we had Christmas at our house, we headed over to Jarred's parents house. They had cooked their traditional breakfast that we all ate before opening presents.

MeMaw made Ryleigh several dress-up clothes, shoes and jewelry...this being one of them!

Christmas Eve

We spent Christmas Eve at Jarred's parents house with their traditional Christmas Eve Dinner...boiled shrimp, hashbrown potato casserole, Olive Garden salad, Logan's rolls and Popeye's biscuits! YUMMY! We ate dinner and then exchanged stockings. Every year we draw names for stockings (although we always end up knowing who has who!) and exchange them Christmas Eve night. Ryleigh loves passing out the stockings and helping out. This year she enjoyed opening her stocking with her little gifts from everyone.





MeMaw and Kadyn






Two of my favorite people!
