A little bit of this & a little bit of that.

My sweet family.

I was trying shirts and coats on the boys yesterday for our Christmas pictures we are taking this coming week. When Dade got his on he said, "I look like a man who works in town."

Audrey played in the sandbox with the boys on Thursday. I didn't have my camera since it was a spur of the moment decision to go to the park. The sand was a little cold and damp, but she sat in it for a while (and tasted a little, too). She has started pulling/pushing herself up to STANDING!

Tommy and I are having our anniversary date tonight... we celebrate SIX years tomorrow. We are looking forward to a night out without the kids; I am praying Audrey does well for the sitter. She hasn't wanted to have much to do with anyone except me for a few weeks now.

If you are looking for a good read over the holidays:

Bring the Rain -- I stumbled upon this blog through a friend's blog. I kept a tab open in my browser for several days until I finished reading it from the beginning (January '08). I was in tears and yet encouraged and inspired. http://audreycaroline.blogspot.com

Beyond Belief: Finding the Strength to Come Back -- Josh Hamilton. Tommy finished this book in less than two days... he could not put it down.
