We built Frosty the Snowman. Carter did the buttons himself, put the hat on and the arms! He had alot of fun.

Big fun with Daddy and Grandmama!! He had a blasted and was worn out afterward! Very fun day!

Feb. 3

So we have been trying to sell our house ourselves. We decided to go with a real estate agent on this day. I had been cleaning the house and unable to play or give Carter any attention. So as I am cleaning I guess he decided his room is too clean and mama wont come in it cuz it doen't need cleaning. Well, he fixed that! About 30 minutes before the agent was to come, this is what i find carter doing. And then 15 minutes later he has dumped out the baskets as well...nothing left on the shelves. And the one in the closet was cleared out as well!! Comical....couldn't believe it...He never destroys it like this. I think he just needed some attention.

Jan. 30

Well they did try to have some fun!

Jan. 29th

We got alot of ice... not too much fun outside. He fell a few times and now if we start talking about ice or snow he says "i m not gonna fall down"

Jan. 16th

Just too cute... my sweet boy. When someone asks how old he is he'll say 2 and a half. So cute.

Christmas with Copelands

This bike thing didn't quite work...we will probably use this as a Birthday present as well...he just could get it. Love it...but couldn't do it.

Didn't get pics of the Roberson Crew...how sad!

Christmas day at Papaw and Grandma's

Poor boy....He needed his Mason to rescue him from his girl cousins!

You can tell in this some that he is getting a bit tired of this dress up stuff!

Christmas Morning 09

So yes, all he wanted was candy canes...so he got alot of them. And the puppy was the only really good reaction we captured. Looking back his favorite toys have been Dopey and Nemo! I am so glad he loves them and plays with them. I really could have just given the boy candy canes...should have taken advantage of it while I could have.

We met the Beal's there as well. They know their way around so that was nice since it was our first time in Silver Dollar City.

Seriously, the best Santa ever! Carter was super excited to see Santa, but a bit reserved when he actually got up there. Carter did tell him that he wanted candy and candy canes. That is all he wanted for christmas...candy canes! So sweet.

Carter wasn't up for any pictures. We had a really fun time and hope to go back again. We actually got in free...some people came up to us and gave us their guest tickets as we all were walking in. Wow.... This was my graduation celebration trip. How good is God. Amazing! Thank you, Father God for caring about the little details of our lives.

Branson December 09

Ahhh... this was hilarious!! Stephen was such a good daddy to fit into this ride! this was Carter's first time to ride rides and he loved it.

The frog ride. .... my favorite!

Ron and Billie were able to meet us there.

Carter loved my hat! I want to always remember that this feat was accomplished only through trusting and obeying the Lord God Almighty. I still do not know why He wanted me to complete my degree but I do know that I came to know Him in a very personal way and I am so very grateful that He had me do this endeavor. I hope and pray that I can trust Him and really do what He wants me to do for the rest of my life. Life is just so much better when walking with Him taking the lead. I cannot thank my family enough for all their support and carter watching during this. It was blood (painful), sweat (oh, my the anxiety), and tears (I was scared to death at times) but He saw it through to completion. Father God, thank you so much! Please use my degree as You need.
