Hooray! I did it! I passed my Real Estate exam back in November and finally am ready to go back to work. The first morning that I was going in to meet my broker, I was getting ready at the same time as Jamie. Trey decided to ask what I was getting ready for? So, I told him, proudly, that I was getting ready for work. Well, that did not go over well at all. In fact, Trey & Audrey both cried hysterically for quite some time. They couldn't understand who would take them to school, be home with them, etc... After reassuring them, they calmed down and are now getting used to the idea. Although, they say that I'm on the computer too much. Hmmm.....wonder if anyone else has that problem? Ha! Also, I just sat my first floor duty this week and much to my astonishment got a walk in that turned into a listing. The couple is so great and happens to be from KY, so there was an instant connection. I'm really excited and looking forward to working in this new career. Wish me luck!!

Trey & Audrey's Preschool Christmas Party! Audrey & Trey have such a fantastic school! The kids, teachers and curriculum are just wonderful. This was at their holiday party. Audrey actually sat on Santa's lap this year! Yeah!! She talked to him about horses. Trey told Santa that he wanted a race track and Santa said that he would like to come over and play with him. Audrey is being extra silly with her friend, Jaelynn.

Christmas 2006 We decided to stay in Destin this year to celebrate the holidays! We thought that it was time to start our own traditions as a famiy. We had a surf & turf Christmas Eve dinner, woke up early with the kids and really just enjoyed being together. We got the kids a playset this year. It is set up in the backyard and they play on it every day. We are so glad that we decided not to wait to get it.


Thanksgiving 2006 We spent Thanksgiving with my family this year in Myrtle Beach, SC. Everyone was able to make it together. It was great. Mom & Randy rented a beach house and Mark & Julia and Melissa & Alec were able to come down. We really enjoyed seeing everyone and just hanging out. We took the kids to the Ripley's Aquarium and Jamie and Randy took them to the Alligator Zoo. Jamie and Randy got to play a lot of golf and everyone ate too much food. Ughh!

Nana, Audrey, Trey & Sandy on the beach!

Recent trip to Bowling Green, KY!


Audrey and Trey loved the guitars that Granny had for them to play. They also really love to support the UK Cats!! The love basketball and football. At least we won the bowl game this year! Maybe Audrey & Trey are our good luck. They are at BW3s with Uncle Joey, who happens to be serving Active Duty in the Army right now. We love you Uncle Joey! Jamie is holding sweet baby Adriana at the hospital. She is a beautiful baby and a most welcome addition to the family.
