New Year=Busy
This new year has not been a good one so far with my blog. I am sorry for being so behind. Things have been really busy and it seems like this month has just flown by. I promise to get back on a schedule, soon! Just to get you up to date on things here in NC, I will list out the highlights of whats been happening:
1. As a Family we have started a Biggest Loser competion. Its alot of fun and everyone is really trying to succeed. Of course what would a competion be without some money involved, so everyone has put in $25. We had our first weigh in 2 weeks ago and Nates dad is in the lead, he lost 17lbs in two weeks! I love seeing everyone getting involved!
2. I have started a nutrition class on Wed nights at a local church with Aunt Lisa and Joann. We are really enjoying it, it biblical based and very interesting.
3. My new addiction is Zumba!! For those of you who dont know its a dancing/cardio class! Amber and I have been going to classes 2-3 times a week. Amber is great at it, she really has some moves! I on the other hand just have alot of fun!
4. We are in the process of buying a house in Eden. Its a great older home that with alittle work will be perfect! We hope to have everything settled and closed by the middle of Feb. I will post pictures of the before and after, when Nate and his dad get through it will be beautiful!
As for everything else its going good. Work is busy, the dogs are crazy as ever, and Nate is applying for Police jobs. I hope everyone is having a great start to the year!!

Christmas 2009: Part 1
I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas! For you Oklahoman's, hope you stayed safe during your blizzard!! We have been so busy that the next few posts will be catching up from the last week......we have been playing in the snow, Nate graduated from the Police Academy, and enjoying having Ashley here for Christmas. I wasnt sure where to begin so I am starting with the Christmas activities. 
We had a tacky Christmas sweater party at Aunt Lisa's house on Wed. I think the pictures say it all......
Lisa and I made Nates sweater....he loved it! (maybe he didnt say that)
Now thats a cute bunch! Thanks to Courtney for making our bows. 
Ashley won the certificate for "Tackiest Sweater".....she deserved it!!

!!!!Caution!!! Not for weak stomachs!!!
There is not much I can say, except that its deer season in the big NC.......Nate made me post this. I am sorry to all of the vegetarians out there.
No, Nate did not shoot this but his Uncle Bobby did. This is the forth one this year that has been put in the Murray freezer. Anyone want to come over for dinner?
