CHRISTMAS/2014 IN ARKANSAS

We spent Christmas in Arkansas this year with Kim and family. Tracy, hubby and I left on Tuesday and came back home on Friday. We decided to come back on Friday because they were predicting snow in Oklahoma City on Friday and they predicted correctly. We didn't take a lot of pictures this year for some reason. Santa was good to Abby. I asked her if Santa was good to her and she said he brought me gifts. I don't think she understood what I meant by asking if he was good to her.LOL

On Christmas Eve, we opted to just have hors d'oeuvres instead of our traditional pizza.
Christmas dinner consisted of prime rib, roasted potatoes, asparagus, Cajun corn and deviled eggs.  We had cherry pie topped with ice cream and pecan pie for dessert.  It was really good.

Everyone except hubby and I went to see a movie on Christmas Day night.

My grand-daughters dressed in their pretty Christmas outfits for pre-school and kindergarten.

ABBY'S 1ST CHRISTMAS

This has always been one of my favorite pictures of Abby.

CHRISTMAS 2009

This was the Christmas that we had the blizzard. The first Christmas in this house. This is Carter and Abby in the picture. Karlie was only a few months old. I have always thought this was a cute picture. This was the night before Christmas Eve and we had opened all the gifts. Kim and Abby had planned on getting up early the next morning and flying back to Arkansas. But the weather did not cooperate and the air port was closed. They did make it back Christmas Day.

CHRISTMAS CARD/2014

These pictures will be on my Christmas card.

THANKSGIVING 2014

The crew from KC arrived Wednesday afternoon. We went to the Hide-A-Way that night to eat pizza, instead of cooking and messing up the kitchen. We would be cooking all the next day, so didn't really want to cook that night.


Karlie with her plate on Thanksgiving Day.  She ate most of it.  We had turkey, dressing, ham and all the trimmings.  Tracy made some of the dishes at her house and brought them over.  That sure helps.

We went shopping on Friday and that night, all but me went to the Sandridge Christmas tree lighting downtown OKC.

Carter and Karlie were fascinated with these ducks on the canal.  They had a fluff of hair on their head.They fed them popcorn.

They got there in time to see the tree lite this year.

The highlight for Carter and Karlie was getting to ride in a horse drawn carriage. Karlie especially thought this was pretty neat.
