Love The Shirt
We are slowly getting back to reality. Yesterday we went to church and it was so nice to be there. We figured it up and I had not been in service since the beginning of November, due to being out of town and working in Little Life. Needless to say I was ready to be in church.

I had forgotten all about this shirt that I had ordered for Deacon…isn’t it the cutest shirt ever.


Of course it looks even cuter on him.


Other than taking a long afternoon nap with me, Deacon enjoyed playing with Daddy. They played with Deacon’s new blocks…


Rested up from all their playing.


Love these two.


It was difficult sending Deacon off to daycare today since he hasn’t been in over two weeks. Who would want to be away from such a little ball of joy.

Christmas Continues
We had a great Christmas. We thoroughly enjoyed spending time with family and eating more food than we will ever need.

Even though we had our family Christmas before we headed north, we still had our stockings filled up on Christmas morning. Deacon enjoyed the thrill of pulling all the items out one by one and checking them out.





And Santa obviously thought that Deacon’s stocking was much bigger than it was because he had to wrap some things up since they didn’t fit. Hopefully, Santa will be better at this next year.


This is how Deacon opened every gift…one very little piece at a time.


Later in the morning the Taylor’s came over for Christmas…here is
Uncle Landon with his nephews.


Deacon got this new laptop and LOVES it.


He loves it so much he wouldn’t open any more presents…not even his new horse.


Bryan got this new tool belt and thought it was a great way to carry Deacon around.


Yesterday, Christmas vacation came to an ended…it was time to head back to Arkansas. Someone didn’t think he was quite ready to leave.


But why would he want to leave when he gets to take baths like this…


Even though the car was packed extremely full, it was a great car ride. Deacon got new DVD players for the car and we all are very thankful for them. Thank you MawMaw and PawPaw these are going to be lifesavers.

The Barnard Christmas
We started our Illinois/Indiana Christmas adventure on Friday.
When we got to Bryan’s parents house Bryan introduced Deacon to Fruit Loops…needless to say he loved them.


Deacon showed off his dancing moves.


He was excited to get Elmo!


Deacon loved his new shoes so much he thought he would see how they tasted.


We have decided that Deacon just might be a PaPaw’s boy.


We spent Saturday day just hanging out with the family and Deacon had lots of time to play with his cousins. I think these kids may think that their Aunt Brandi is the greatest…


And who wouldn’t love someone who will push them around in a laundry basket.


The next morning we headed to Grandma Dixie’s to see a lot more Barnards.

Todd decided to get Deacon involved in a Barnard tradition…wrapping paper ball war.


That afternoon Bryan and I decided to lay down with Deacon for a nap. When we woke up a couple hours later I could tell Deacon had a fever. We took him to the doctor and after about a day on an antibiotic he was feeling much better and the fever was gone.

Deacon and Ava
Friday night I got to see one of my best friends. Since we live so far apart we don’t get to see each other very often.

The last time we saw them was our first trip to Illinois with Deacon.


Here are Deacon and Ava now.


They played great together and of course were so cut. It was great to get to catch up. Now that Bryan’s parents live close to them hopefully we will see Amy and Ava more often.
