The Pennington's: January 2010

Now that I am caught up..............

Here is what we have been up to since Christmas. They cancelled gymnastics at Barnyard, so MeMe and Daddy agreed to take Anna Claire to Murfreesboro so that she could continue to take gymnastics. Daddy's work schedule allows him to take her every other Tuesday, but MeMe has yet to miss a class. Anna Claire is 110% girl. She loves her nails painted, wearing hair bows, and tutus. She loves Hello Kitty, animals, playing with her doll house, and Polly Pockets. {Mommy's not so in love with the Polly Pockets bc I get stuck dressing them} Pink Cowgirl boots are in our near future and I cannot wait bc they are super cute!! {thanks to MeMe for buying them} She needs them if she's going to go to the barn with Papa this Summer, right?

On to the pictures................
Saturday we went with Misty and Brylee to paint pottery in Murfreesboro. There will be more pictures to come. This picture was on my phone. They had a BLAST!!

And to think, I clean that mess up every night.

Loving on Peatie, bless his heart.

Christmas 2009 Overload

Christmas 2009 was wonderful. We had a great time with Family and Friends. We are still not done with Christmas yet. I think Kerry's Mom is coming this weekend, yes the end of January 2010, for Christmas. We went to the Christmas parade, made Rice Krispy house {that I do not recommend}, and had lots of family time.

NicNic and Anna Claire Through the Years

NicNic is Anna Claire's MeMe's Best Friend's Grandson. Did you get all of that? He is about 2 years older than Anna Claire and they have had their picture made together every Halloween since Anna Claire was born.

It's amazing how fast they grow.

Back Tracking and Picture Overload............

I am going to back track a little because I realized that I never posted Halloween pictures, like I promised. Anna Claire was a butterfly. She chose the costume and being the lucky little girl that she is, her MeMe bought it for her bc it was out of Mommy and Daddy's price range at the time. Anna Claire had her annual Halloween visit with Nic Nic and then we went to Brookhaven to trick or treat. Brookehaven, oh good grief!! That neighborhood was packed!! We parked at the first entrance bc that was as far as we could go. Anna Claire lasted about 2 hours and then it started to get pretty cold, so we came home. We let her trick or treat a few neighbors houses first. One was a local police officers house. Anna Claire waltzed right in to his house, handed him her candy pail, said "here hold this", and started playing with his remote control car. Thankfully he found this humorous. We also made cupcakes and carved pumpkins, which I forgot to take pictures of.
