cute little cousins

My cute little cousin Gracie turned four this week- and her mom planned the cutest Barbie-themed birthday party for her. Mt favorite part are these personalized Barbie tshirts that my aunt had made for each of the girls at the party! She found them on etsy! SO CUTE!!My cute cousins Gracie and Lily in their tshirts! LOVE THEM!!!

devotion

Went to my cousin's wedding this weekend. Wedding started at 430. Alabama game kicked off at 330. (he's from NorthCarolina- he doesn't get it) MAJOR problem.

I love my cousin.
But.
I love Alabama.
So, my family and I watched it on iPhones. CBSsports.com has a GREAT app that you can watch the live feed from your phone. We killed two batteries, and drained about half of the 3rd.


now, THAT is devotion.

mom's bday

My mom's bday was actually a week ago, but we didn't get to celebrate as an entire family until Saturday night.

We took our Christmas card picture (better late than never, right?)- and it's SO great. We all have on "Gameday" gear. Roll Tide and Merry Christmas. :)
Then we went to dinner at Vincent's.

One problem.

Dinner at 7.

Heisman at 8.

Hmmmmmm. Dilemma.

My brother proposed that we all leave our phones at home so that when we came back, we could all watch the Heisman show together. So we did.

Of course, we didn't take into consideration the fact that the TVs in the bar would be on ESPN.

But, never fear.

My brother, sister, and I all sat with our backs to the televisions. My mom and dad had to sit at the end where they couldn't see the screens. My s-i-l and nephew were the only ones who could see the screen- and neither one of them care.

So, we made it through dinner without seeing anything.
Came home and watch it whole show as a family.

Then cried again.

I am SO excited for Mark Ingram! And for running backs. And for Alabama!
I love my family for making the Heisman trophy presentation part of my mom's bday party. And for making Alabama a part of our Christmas card. Love it.
