SDC Christmas

As always, we love Silver Dollar City at Christmas. Mom went with us this year to help me survive all the fun. :)







We had beautiful weather, which of course is always nice. There's just something about going to SDC that makes it really feel like Christmas.

Happy Halloween!

Howdy Y'all! I, Woody, would like to tell you that we had a GREAT Halloween!


Yes, we had a lovely Halloween! I missed my sea friends, but it was so fun to trick-or-treat on land!




Dr. Ellie was wonderful to look after all the animals. Especially Delilah the Bumblebee.


Oh my, what a group of characters!


Ariel, Cleopatra, Toothless the Dragon, and a pro basketball player. Yes, we have quite a diverse group of friends!

I've been using Shutterfly for years. I use it to back up my pictures, kind of like an external hard drive. I use it for printing, either through mail, or at Target, and I think the quality is great! I've done several Christmas cards through Shutterfly over the years too. Click here to see there wonderful selection of Christmas cards. I think the first year I did a photo card, and I loved the ease of designing it! Shutterfly has all kids of cards though, not just photo cards. Click here to see some beautiful things!

The next year, if memory serves me right, I went a little fancier, 'cause apparently that year I was feeling fancy. :) I did a stationary card, and I loved it! Beautiful designs, fantastic quality, and again, easy to do!

We've done some Shutterfly photo books over the years too, and I always love them. If you want to be praised for being the best gift giver EVER, just give Grandma and Grandpa a Shutterfly photo book for a gift. I have, and I love the excited reactions from them! Something I am excited to try this year is the Shutterfly desk calendar. I have someone in mind to give one to, and I think I'll be ordering one for our home too! Click here to check them out!

I think my favorite thing about using Shutterfly, for photo books, cards, gifts, storing pictures, etc...is how easy they make it. It's so user friendly, even I can do it! :) I also love, love, LOVE the beautiful Christmas card designs. They bring out new ones every year, and every year I am torn between several new and beautiful cards! Seriously, check them out! And I'm not just saying that for a promotion, I really do like their website. Their service is fantastic too, my cards and pictures always arrive super fast, and it good condition.

SO, Ready? Set. GO to Shutterfly...

Fall Soccer Twenty-Ten!

Annie played soccer again this fall, in what was I'm sure, the warmest fall soccer season EVER. It was a great season, and she loved her team! They were the STARS, and they played great! Our Awesome friend Janelle even got the girls on the team special Star soccer socks! That's right, soccer can be fashionable too! Here are some of my favorite pics...

My STAR!


The Star Socks..in action!

The Huddle. Thanks Coach S, for another great season!


Four Awesome soccer friends! These four have been friends from the time they were born! (annie had her face painted like a cat, from her fall party at school, at our last game!)


And two Awesome soccer cousins! It was so fun to see our cousin play too!


We can't wait for next year!
