Oh how time goes by so fast. The holidays have kept us real busy. Thanksgiving was great. We got to go to my parents house Thanksgiving day and then we went to Austin that weekend to spend time with Kyle's family. It was the first time in the 5 years that Kyle and I have been toghter that all his brothers, sisters and their husbands, wife (me) and nieces and nephews have been toghether at the same time. We were all toghether at our wedding minus Casey because he was overseas so it doesn't count. We had a good time going to the movies and visiting. Everytime I see everyone I miss them when they leave.

Since Thanksgiving we have been getting ready for Christmas. I wanted everything done by this weekend becauase I knew that we were going to be going out of town so I did not want to be rushed these last few days before Christmas. Kyle and I got our tree up and took some pictures to send out on Christmas cards. Tonight I will be making fudge!




This weekend we went to Nac to do Christmas with Kyle's dads side of the family. It was good to see everyone. Here are a couple of pics from the party. ****Kennedy family wish you were there!!****

So it has been a couple of weeks but im on here. Things have been pretty busy. The last weekend that Kyle had off we spent some time doing some fun stuff. We went to the Renissance festival on Nov. 15th. I have not been in years and Kyle had never been so it was a good time.



The same weekend I went to see Madonna with my friend Holly. She had bought tickets in the summer for her and her husband Robert but he ended up having to work so I was the lucky duck that got to go with her. We had a good time watching all the people so thrilled to be there. All I can say about the performance is that woman can dance.




This past weekend I went and spent some time in Nacogdoches while Kyle worked. I did some shopping at an event they have each year called Holiday in the Pines. They have lots of cute booths and I was able to knock out a couple of Christmas gifts. I was also able to go to dinner with my friend April. We tried out a new mexican food resturant in town and had some great pina coladas. The last event of my fun filled Nac weekend was my great deer hunt. Now Kyle LOVES to hunt. Every year he hunts and waits patiently to get him a deer. I on the other hand I am not so patient. I usually move around, complain that it is cold and end up talking really load when you are not suppossed to talk at all. So because of this I don't normally sit in the same stand as serious deer hunter Kyle. I will sit in a stand with his dad. Well Kyle's dad and myself combined don't make the best deer hunters. Now instead of just me complaining that it is cold, talking and moving around it is times two. So needless to say I have never been in a deer stand where we have shot or much less seen a deer. Well last weekend something came over me and my father in law and we decided to bee serious on our deer hunt. We were quiet, we had a mini heater to keep warm (yes I know we are wimps) and we actually paid attention for the deer. So our mission turned out positive, we killed a 8 point. Granted we had to shoot it twice because it would not die (this part i did not like to watch) and I can say I "killed" a deer (even tho i did not pull the trigger) hahhahaha. I am opting out of the the picture on this one. I got to looking at it and decided I would let you imagine what it looked like.

Finally I would like to say that my prayers are with the Chaivers family right now. We lost a very much loved uncle and he will be missed terribly. We love you Anthony!

Inspired

So after reading my sister in law Jennifer and my friend Stevy's blogs I have now felt inspired to start one of my own. Hopefully I will keep up with it, I know I really enjoy reading theirs so hopefully mine won't bore you to death.

We have finally settled in our place in Conroe. It is a lot different than Austin but we really like it. I am finally getting the hang of my job. It is def. a whole different world than Dell but I think I am going to enjoy it. The people that I work with are super nice and you can't beat the schedule (Monday thru Thursday)! I am just happy that I was able to find something and finally be truley happy with my job.

Kyle seems to be getting the hang of thigs as well. It must be hard to switch enviroments so drastically. I admire what he does, I know that I would never be able to do it.

Well this is my Super Early Pre New Years Resolution to keep up with this so hopefully you'll keep up with us!
