Jumpy Birthday Party

Anna was soooo excited about her birthday party. She had a BLAST! All of her friends jumped and jumped until they were sweaty! The next day she said "Mommy, am I still three?" I would say "Yes Anna, it was not a dream - you are three years old now." She is such a big girl!

Birthday Weekend

We cannot believe that our little girl will be 3 years old!
She can't wait to see her friends and family at her party this weekend.

Christmas

Anna and Landon had a WONDERFUL Christmas! We started on Sunday visiting Pop pop and Me Me. Then on Christmas Eve we went to Grand Daddy Ballards AND then to have Christmas at Uncle Adam's with Nana and all the cousins! Christmas Day we went to Mike and Christie's house. Then on Friday, we had Christmas with the Ballard/Blake family at Mamaw Cindy's.

Aunt Rachel is so much fun!

Uncle Josh is the BEST!

Landon fell asleep (about one minute after picture taken)

after listening to his new glow worm sing him a lullaby.

Mother and Daughter!

Look what SANTA brought...

It's a dollhouse. Can you tell she's excited?

She kept saying "Thank You Santa" ...over and over as she played.

Landon got a Sing Stage - he loves the lights and music and mirror!

Thanks Nana for the BUMBO seat. He is a big boy now.

Look at my little 'monkey' SMILING!

Christmas Cookies With Cousins!

Anna went to Aunt Michelle's on Monday to bake cookies with her cousins. They had a blast! There was flour and sprinkles everywhere... so much fun!

Christmas Countdown

Every morning Anna gets to open one 'door' to countdown until Christmas. There is a candy treat inside each day. 10 more days!

Go Upward!

Our church is beginning it's 3rd year of Upward Basketball and Cheerleading. We found this jersey left over from last year.
Anna loves wearing it and feeling 'big'. She is not old enough to play. But when asked if she wants to play basketball or cheer...she changes her mind every day. She does look awfully cute in the basketball uniform though ;)

DollyWood

We went to DollyWood on Saturday.
Anna had to ride all her favorite rides.

Landon was bundled up and cozy.
