My Helper

I was baking cookies last night and I had someone who REALLY wanted to participate! So I put her on the stool so she could feel involved:)

Lily's new sweater.....I'm not sure how much she likes it yet.


I went to Louisiana to visit Lee this weekend (he is in Monroe finishing up his degree at Louisiana Tech) and look at this Santa that we saw! Let me try to recreate the conversation we had: Lee: "Did you see that blow up Santa back there?" Kristen: "Yes, those get stolen all the time." Lee: "How could you steal that Santa? If you did, and then put it up at your house it would be obvious that you stole it." Kristen: "What? They all look the same and how would you know who stole it?" ............well, I had just seen a regular blow up Santa not this ENORMOUS one:)

Here is our lovely Christmas Tree

Watching TV

Lee and I were watching the Animal Planet Dog Championship a couple of weeks ago. Well, the pictures tell the story.....

Lily enjoyed the show too.

Dear AT&T,

You suck....

You drop my calls, every day! Sometimes more than once in one phone conversation! I'm tired of paying for service that is worse than the Maid Service in Mexico. I hate that my phone just decides to turn off even though it is fully charged. I hate that when I went in to your store to find out what is wrong with my phone the man told me I had to talk to the 'Warranty People'........and they told me all I can get is a refurbished phone!

YOU STINK!!!!

Ok, I'm done.

Hate Mail

To the driver in front of me on George Bush this morning (with the handicap tag hanging from the rearview mirror)...........

You ONLY drive in the left hand lane if you go the speed limit or faster than the speed limit!!

Thank you.

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving morning Lee and I ran the Turkey Trot in Ft. Worth. We had a really great time but if you are trying to actually run......it is kinda hard with the walkers, strollers and dogs. The 5K run has more of the strollers and dogs then the 10K so I think I'll run that one next year:) Either way, we had a great time and Lee's Dad came out for some exercise and walked the 5K. After that we headed to Tyler for some great food and great company! Friday we got out and did some shopping but we didn't go early, we just took our time. We took Lily to Petsmart and she LOVES being in the cart going down the toy aisle! She is like a little kid.

Here she is sniffing out some of the toys.


I love this picture....she is licking her lips saying "I can't wait to get my mouth on some of these toys!"

We bought her these reindeer ears....yes, they light up and I will get video of that:)

We helped my Mom get her Christmas Tree up and I put Lily in the middle to show how small she is or how big Mom's tree is.

We took some pics before going to see The Blind Side Friday evening. Great movie!

Mer and I.

Saturday, on the way home, we stopped at a Christmas Tree farm and picked out our Tree. Here are the guys getting it ready for us.

Hope everyone had a great Holiday!

Cowboys Stadium

I got a really awesome gift from a client of mine. He has season tickets to the Cowboys games and sent me his 4 tickets for Sunday's game against Washington!! Lee, myself and his parents went to the game and had a fabulous time! We were in traffic forever on the way there and then getting into the stadium was a bit of a cluster but once we were in, all the bad stuff was worth it! That stadium is awesome!

These are just a couple of pictures of Lee and I with Lily before the game.

Outside the stadium.

The HUGE screen.


Blurry but proves we were there:)


So many people.

Bathroom Trouble.....Again

So, this was a really busy weekend for Lee and I. Lee was in a wedding on Saturday and we started Friday night with the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner. We left Lily at home in the bathroom Friday night and she was fine. I left her there again on Saturday while we were at the wedding but this time she had other plans. Below is what we found when we got home. It seems that she is challanging us to do a better job of 'doggie proofing' the bathroom:) The basket with magazines and toilet paper was on the very top of the toilet so some how she got on the toilet and knocked that off and then had fun for hours!
