So, I didn't get to post anything the last 2 weeks of 2011.
Why you ask? We were traveling, eating, busy, and I was just plain lazy about blogging.
But now I am going to speed through about 3 weeks of fun by showing you pictures, Enjoy:
Before we left to fly home to Mississippi we had our Christmas!
eeek Tiffanys Blue Box!
I didn't force him to write that...swear.
Oh I have longed, waited, and yearned for you K!
Best Christmas Ever!
Then my stocking: full of JUNK.
Funny thing though, we both got each other the same stocking stuffer!
Now that's love.
The Next morning it was time to wake up and go to Mississippi - by way of public transport
On the bus... then the light link...then the planes.
However, before the planes CK had a little run in with TSA
I went through security with no problem, but they thought he had a weapon so he had a full body cavity search done. Just kidding they went through his entire book bag filled with tshirts and cds to find his Capo that they thought was a weapon. No ladies, hes famous didn't you know? That's for his guitar not for killing.
I can see how they were confused it looks like this:
Totally a gun.
CK refused to let me eat on the plane rides either so all I survived on were these little babies for 9 hours:
Delta has the best cookies.
But then we were back and I got to spend lots of time with this pretty face!
I also got to spend time with Amanda... and I didn't even get a picture with her BUT we did hang out and help her with her newest art project:
How cool is this!? Curtains with a cool pattern that she decided to have people color in!
Then my Gran tried to get my fashion up to speed with 2011...
Scarfs around the waist is totally popular right now. Thanks Gran for bringing me up to speed!
We stayed in Jackson, MS for the first few days but then it was time to head down to Laurel to see the rest of our friends and CK's side of our family. This time was filled with Lots of the following:
Morgan my sister-in-law took 700 picture on my phone using CAMWOWs Crazy face maker thing...
Morgan in all her glory
Me as a Cone Head... More to come later in the post
CK helped his mom finish decorating their beautiful tree by putting only his homemade childhood ornaments (the ones with pictures of him) on the entire top of the tree. This sparked the conversation about him being the favorite in the family while Morgan cried helplessly in the corner and his Mom giggling that CK is/was the best child ever. Haha that might have been the funniest conversations I have ever heard in my life.
I was sure he was going to pull a ELF and hop onto the tree at any moment.
We did have to stay in Morgans old room... which is entirely pepto bismal PINK. The sheets, the walls, the pillows... I was in Pink Hell.
I got to see Marley and Matt and Baby Lucas while we were there! I didn't take any pictures with them but I did get CK holding a the baby and it is the sweetest thing I have ever seen. Now I want a child even more haha
So handsome! (Both of them!)
We also ate nothing but junk food and SUGAR the entire week... I felt like crap.
Can't a girl get some broccoli!?
We kissed under the Mistletoe
And then Morgan took more crazy pictures at EVERY family event we attended:
Cousin Maribeth who Loves Justin Bieber... (sorry about that last post girl lol)
Cousin Andrew
MIL & Morgan
My turn
Did I mention that there were Nutcrackers everywhere? My MIL loves them and has about 80 different once all over the house and no telling how man on her trees (yes, trees she has her very own nutcracker tree)
Even on the napkins
Morgan made the coolest Gingerbread house I have ever seen too:
She's a genius even if she isn't the favorite (haha)
We also went to Church several times and took pictures of ourselves
I also got to see my father while home
My Step Mom and him drove down to have Christmas with us one day so that was a lot of fun!
CK also had a CD Release party while we were in Laurel and he got some press from a local news station that did a piece on him - which you can see HERE -
Filming the show
Congrats on the Engagement to our amazing friends Harvey and Nicole!!!
Yay for my girlfriends!
After the show we went back to the MIL's house and had a S'more party!
Baby S'more!
We cook s'mores with balance and strength!
And now the rest of Christmas photos that I'm to lazy to put in order:
At Grandmothers house for Christmas
My sweet girls And the rest of Morgans Crazy photos:
She is never allowed to have my phone again, but these pictures where the Hit of Christmas- everyone was dying out laughing at them.
Going home was great, we were exhausted and ready to get back in our own bed but overall I just can't imagine not going home for Christmas. I think moving away makes it an even better holiday!
Then it was time for NYE and My 25th Birthday... yea I'm old as dirt. Blahhh.
My mom and uncle drove up just in time to celebrate with us (my mom just moved here if you missed that in a previous post) and it was great having them around to try and keep me from crying on my 25th. (I usually always cry on my birthday- I just hate that day... I try to get excited about it every year but I just usually end up crying and wishing for the day to pass. Very sad)
They tried to cheer me up with Cheesecake and presents... smart people.
CK decided he wanted the brownies and Ice Cream.... I told him it wasn't his birthday but he didn't care.
I got this monster Cake-Cheesecake-brownie thing. It was stellar.
I got this as my present from the hubs and It is HUGE and just what I wanted!
Good Job hunny bunny.
We finished the night up with a trip to the casino where they GAVE me $70.00 bucks in cash for being a new member and some other perks.. should have just left right then but we gambled and I lost all $70 Oh well, wasn't ever Really my money right?
Then we went shopping and completed my mission of making my bed the most comfortable and prettiest in the world. Olive is modeling the new down comforter below:
She thinks she owns everything. Skank.
Thanks to my Uncle Eddie for driving with my mom across the country and being with me for like the first time ever for my birthday!
It snowed a little that day too!
Mom under her rainbow!
The holidays (like this blog post) are exhausting but well worth it.
I hope everyone had a great one like we did!
