World's Best Neighbors

I know I've said it before, but I can't help but say it again. We, seriously, have the best neighbors in the world.  Yesterday morning, while having our annual Christmas breakfast together, John Caden, knowing that Mr. Steve loves the outdoor and wildlife, suggested that the two of them get together and watch Wild Kratts together sometime soon. Before the sun rose this morning John Caden started asking when we could text Mr. Steve to see if he was "available." With DVD in hand (and Tim and Miss Jennifer taking secret pictures behind him), thanks to Mr. Steve's graciousness, he headed over for an afternoon of Wild Kratts and popcorn (and homemade raspberry smoothie)! Steve and Jennifer--thanks for making his day!  You truly are the best!

Camera Shy

Hudson plopped right down in front of the Christmas tree as if he wanted his picture made there.  Perhaps he's seen some of the Christmas cards that we've received this year with the family dog posed in front of the tree? But when we got out the camera he tucked his chin and tail as if embarrassed and trotted away.

Milk 'n Cookies

It sounded like a really cute idea...a picture of the kids having milk and cookies in their Christmas pajamas...
but the pajamas were too "itchy" and started coming off as soon as the first picture was shot. So we had to make a wardrobe change and settled on a green shirt instead. #keepingitreal

Georgia Gym Dogs Sneak Peak

We had a fun afternoon in Athens watching the Georgia Gym Dogs give us a sneak peak of their upcoming 2015 competition season.
 
 
 
 
  
As a bonus, we were able to meet one of Anna's favorite Georgia Gym Dogs, Lindsey Cheek, who competed from 2011-2014.
