I AM ENGAGED!!!!!

I know that I am really late posting this but it has been a crazy week. This has been a post that I have been praying I would have a chnace to post for a long time. Last Sunday night Graci and I were over at Coach's house and with a totally suprise he asked Graci and I both to marry him!!!!! I have been on cloud 9 this whole week. It was a perfect night. I know that this is a short post but I am trying to get ready for school. I just want to say thank you for all of my friends who have prayed for Graci and I that one day God would send a Godly man in to our lives. He has blessed us so much putting Adam in our lives. I AM GETTING MARRIED!!!!!!!

"Fancy Nancy" and more

For Christmas Graci got a "Fancy Nancy" doll from Annie and her Aunt Peri got her a matching outfit so that she can dress like "Fancy Nancy". I finally talked her into putting it on yesterday and she loved every moment. The rest of the pictures are of Graci in her Princes tent that Coach got her for Christmas and her helping me make brownies.

Griffin Noel Benson!!!

Last Tuesday, December 30, 2008, my nephew was born. Griffin weighed 8lbs and 8oz. My parents went to Nashville early Tuesday morning to welcome their grandson into the world. Graci, Adam, Graham, Peri, and I joined the celebration Saturday and had Christmas at Kyle and Gabby's. I am so excited about being an Aunt!! Kyle and Gabby are doing great with adjusting and are going to make great parents.

Christmas Comes Early

As you can see in the title we celebrated an early Christmas. With the anticipation of Baby Griffin (due on Christmas day), and a lot of other conflicting schedules we kicked of Christmas last Saturday. We got up early Saturday morning called Coach to come over and opened presents. We had a surprising visit from Graham and Peri. They were on their way to the beach for the week and were so sweet to stop by on there way out of town. The rest of the day consisted of lunch at the nursing home with my Mamaw and going to Ingomar to have Christmas with Coach's family. We had a great day and a very Merry Christmas!!

Holiday Busyness

Graci was a busy girl this past Wednesday. She had 2 Christmas parties and a Christmas program that night at church. Graci had a party at school that I was so glad I got to help with. I had a busy semester that I felt like I missed out on Graci's school life. She would come home talking about her friends from school and I would not know who they were. So, I really enjoyed gettting to help with her party and put face's with the name's she would tell me. Her other party was at Mrs. Jackies house. I did not get to go to it but I know she had a blast. That night was our Christmas prgram at church. Pop and Annie were the leaders of the program and they did a great job. We were a little worried about how Graci and the rest of the 3 and 4 year olds would act. We did not know if they would actually sing the songs or have total meltdowns and bail out. WOW.....it was amazing!! They sang their little hearts out. Especially Allie Montgomery....who knew she had it in her. It was the cutest program ever!! Good job Pop and Annie and thank you to Coppie, Brad, and Sarah for helping.

Pop and Graci

Just about every morning Graci wakes up and the first thing she wants to know is, "Is Pop eating breakfast?" Graci's sweet Pop fixes his breakfast every morning and remebers to add another half of a bagel to his plate for her. This has become a tradition for the two and Graci can not wait to add her two cousins, Griffin and Baby Peanut (don't know if boy or girl yet) to the "Morning Tradition with Pop".

Let's Kick off theChristmas Holidays!!!
