December 2010

This month was awesome. My mom came for 2 weeks to spend time and help out while Nate started back in school and at work. She was a lifesaver. She cleaned our house, ran errands, loved on Parker, and helped keep Abby entertained and gave her the extra attention she needed.
We celebrated Nate's 35th birthday by going to Macaroni Grill in Shreveport. It was fun, and our first big outing with 2 little ones. He's such a great husband, father and friend.
We got spoiled again when Nate's parents, and his brother Brandon and his family came to visit for a week just after Christmas. It was so much fun. We had a full house, but we loved every minute of it. We were able to bless Parker and celebrate the New Year together and take his parents to one of favorite places in Louisiana - Natchitoches. With her cousins and their dog here, Abby was in heaven :)

We unfortunately lost pics during December - February 2011, so I'll try to fill in the blanks.
December:
Nate turned 35, and we went to the Macaroni Grill and the Boardwalk in Shreveport to celebrate. It was fun and a bit scary, being our first outing with 2 kids!
Christmas was great, our first one alone, poor Nate was sick, and Abigail loved opening presents for her and Parker. Nate's parents came to visit the night after Christmas, and Brandon, Julie, and their 2 little girls and dog came a few days later. It was a full house with 1 bathroom, but it was so much fun. We all took a trip south to Natchitoches to see the Christmas lights but ended up losing our debit card and getting a flat tire with no tools in the trunk. It turned out to be quite an adventure! We blessed Parker on January 2nd and were so glad to have family there for it.
