2011 IN REVIEW

It seems like 2011 went by in a whirl. These are a few things I want to remember about our year.

Coco has had lots of fun on her trampoline.

We finally finished our bathroom remodel in early 2011

Blizzard of 2011. Arkansas received record snow. Lots of snow days spent at home

Fun Girl Scout trips to Camp Noark

Our precious Mammie went home to be with Jesus

Celebrating a great year of Girl Scout cookie sales

Along with snow we also had record tornados and thunderstorms

Spring was filled with nights at the softball field where Coco played for the Diamond Hawks.
She moved to the Dirt Hawgs in the fall of 2011 a traveling team

Coco finished 5th grade with straight A's

Spent the 4th of July at Nana and Papa's

1st day of 6th grade. Our baby girl is growing up too fast

We went to Oklahoma to see Ms Willie. Scott's favorite teacher.

Spent a Sunday afternoon in Eureka Springs, Ar playing tourists

Mimi got her first computer. Love connecting with her on the world wide web

Scott started power lifting. He is dead lifting 540lbs and benching 350lbs

Girl Scout troop bridged to Cadettes

Spur of the moment photo shoot with Coco

Halloween dance at the middle school. Ashlyn spent the night and went with Coco to the dance

I started a new job with Wells Fargo. Spent a couple of weeks traveling for training.
I am loving the new job

Coco and I visited the Daisy BB Gun museum in Rogers, AR

We added Abbi Lane to our family. She was intended to be Coco's Christmas present but has turned out to be a family gift. We are all in LOVE with her. She has a great and fun personality. Brings us so much joy.

Coco all dressed up for her first formal dance at school

My sister and her family came to visit. Love these kids Jake, Kaylee and Ethan

Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art opened on 11-11-11 in Bentonville. We went in December to see it. I can't wait to go back and Scott has no desire to ever go back.

Family Christmas photo using the timer on my camera.

Kbugg broke her elbow the first week of winter break. She had to go to Children's hospital in Little Rock the same day for surgery. She is healing well and has been a little trooper through it all. Their family is in New Orleans as I type awaiting to board a cruise ship for a 7 day vacation. I am so jealous!!!

Christmas morning 2011

The Family 2011

Looking forward to 2012 and making lots of memories!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR

WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER

I have been so busy with Christmas and putting it away I almost forgot about winning a giveaway from Ms. Rhoda. I won her giveaway to Listplanit.

Oh my if you are a lover of lists then you will love love love this site. She has like a gazillion lists, for anything you can imagine.

I have just spent the last hour looking through them and choosing some that i can use in a our family organizer.

Ms. Rhoda thank you so much for the giveaway!

Today was the first day of my 5 day vacation!!! I got all of my Christmas taken down and put back in tubs. I have 12 tubs of Christmas and that is not counting the couple with lights and greenery in them! I am glad the house looks put back together but the magic is gone too...

New Years Eve tomorrow. Do you all have big plans?? Scott wants to go to go hang out with some friends but it is an hour away and he wants to spend the night but I want to come home so I don't know what we will do. We usually spend it at home and everyone is asleep before midnight (well except me, I never make it before midnight). I like to be home in my own bed come morning! He asked if I wanted to stay there from Thursday til Sunday so we could watch the Razorbacks play in the Liberty Bowl. I asked him if he was crazy! I like home way to much.

Whatever you do please be safe!
Happy New Year

I am off to work on my new year resolutions using my list from LIST PLAN IT!
Blessings,
Pam
