You Know I LIke My Chicken Fried!

One Band that I really like and have really enjoyed seeing going through the steps to success is The Zac Brown Band. From them being in small Nashville Bars and playing college towns to playing the small stage at CMA Fest to the big stage at CMA Fest...ZBB has become one of my favorites. Wednesday the 29th the were set to play at Bridgestone and though I really wanted to go I never really tried to make that happen with all the other stuff we had going on. But Wednesday at 3pm my friend Pam's daughter gave up her ticket due to being sick and I scored one great night of music and laughs with a super fun lady.

ZBB I LOVE YOU!!!!!! And Pam...You're the Best!!!!!

Tuesday Night Dinner

Because things were a bit different this year and I missed Christmas Breakfast with The Edens and Brasili's...Dad, Mandy and Lori came out to my house for a Christmas Dinner. I was very excited to share my house with them and get some time for the 4 of us to visit. It was really nice getting to spend some quality time together. Nothing like a night with a Dad and all his Daughters!

The Day After!

The morning after our CRAZY Christmas James, Mark and Mike headed out to hunt bright bright bright and early. They didn't catch anything :-( but I think they enjoyed the attempt. After Mary and I did some cleaning and the guys returned we headed to Mom and Larry's to watch a little football.

Later that evening James and I headed North to spend a little time with my Dad. It was nice to be able to visit with him at his house and it was nice to be able to visit just the three of us.

Christmas Day ~~~~~~~~~~~ Oh What A Long Day!

Nashville Got A White Christmas!

James and I got our day started off fairly early by heading to his Dad's house to visit with Mike, Kim and Zack. We had a nice little breakfast and meal with them. It was really nice to start our day off a little low key.

Then the day really got started!

We headed to Mom's house for a Christmas lunch and some family & gift time with The Braswell's. This Christmas was definitely different traditionally, missing 2 wonderful people this year, but it was definitely nice to be with family.

After things died down a bit at Mom's we headed to Mary Katherine and Mickey's house to spend some time with them and the girls. The girls were extremely excited and celebrating Christmas with kids is a whole different level. It was really nice to share this with them.

Before it got too terribly late,

Mark, Mary, James and I headed home to do a little gift opening ourselves.

Wow what a day!

It sure was filled with alot of family...and seemed a bit rushed but oh it is so nice being able to celebrate and be with family during the holidays!!!

Merry Christmas Everyone!!!!!!!!

Christmas Eve

This Christmas our holidays were completely packed...so we got started on Christmas Eve. After Mark and James returned from some last minute shopping and Mary and I returned from some grocery shopping, we all headed to Mom's to visit with Patti & OB and their family before our traditional Christmas Eve Movie.

It was nice visiting with them and their family and just having some relaxing fun.

After visiting we headed to see Little Fockers (not so great of a movie) Then we grabbed a bite to eat at Rafferty's and then headed back to Mom and Larry's where James and I opened presents with them.

Then it was back home to visit with our babies a bit...let them open some Christmas Eve gifts and then climb into bed and rest up for another big day!!!

Night Night...Gotta Get Some Good Sleep And Get Ready For Santa!!!!!

We Promise We've Been Good ;-)
