Happy New Year!

So 2010 has proved to start out just as busy as we ended 2009!  We had a great time in Atlanta for Christmas with my side of the family...there's always a lot going on when we go there, which I enjoy very much.  Jefferson had an especially good Christmas, as my parents now have two black labs (Sam, the 80-lb two year old, and Annie, the 30-lb puppy).  They played nonstop, which was so cute and proved to be very helpful during our 8-hour car ride back, since he slept the whole way!  We continued our tradition of Christmas Eve at The Varsity with the Withers and Darbys, went to the Meaders for Christmas Day brunch, and had 25+ at my parents house for oysters and tenderloin later that day.  So, it was a great time with lots of family and friends getting to be together and celebrating our Savior's birth! 

Here are some pictures from the week there:

Billy and I took our Christmas picture the night before we left for ATL so I could attempt to get our Christmas cards out somewhat close to the 25th...As you can see, we LOVE getting creative with our Christmas card pictures and spent a couple of hours and lots of laughs on our photo shoot with Jefe. I'm glad I married someone who is just as obsessed with our dog as I am :)

This gives a whole new meaning to "Jumbone"

Where are the milk and cookies?!?

Looking for his reindeer

We actually did have our dog on the roof of our back stoop, but in our defense, he really wanted to go up there, and when he got closer to the edge, I held his "handle" tail.  Also, this $9 Walmart special Santa suit was completely worth it!!
