Yes I know that We are not very good at keeping this blog updated so here are a few most recent pictures of our little family. Addy is getting so big now she is walking and dancing all over the place. She has some real rhythum. Well, Jeremy took me to Vegas for my 21st Birthday a few weeks ago and that was such a blast. His parents have a time share there so we were able to stay right on the stripe. Addy did endure the long million hour drive down there with such a good additude. I am still in school wich it is winding down... finals will be here before we know it. Then I will start the Cosmetology program in January. Jeremy still lvoe his job and isnt gone nearly as much as before. We are so excited for christmas to get here. It will be a fun year for Addy! Jeremy are currently reading the Twilgiht books together and are completely wrapped up in them. We love it. And if anyone has not yet read them... You must! Well that is about it for right now! I will try to do better at keeping you all up dated although im sure most of you have given up on me and stopped reading a long time ago.
Happy Holidays and Everyone enJoy your Thanksgiving!

Addy getting ready for her cake....
At first Addy didnt want to dive into the cake. She would rather sit there and pick off the pretty little sprinkles on top... Just how girlly is she? Oh She is a love!!

Once her dad gave her a fork and let her dig into it then she was reved up and ready to go.... She was sharing with anyone who would come near.. She had fun
