Santa came to visit us in Ashley Woods! We even invited a few of our friends to swing by as well. Heidi, Scott, & Riley; Stacy & Grant; Meredy, Kevin, & Bretton; and Tiffany, Joaquin, & Zariah.
We had a fairly relaxing Christmas morning. We decided to stay in town and open presents in the a.m. then spend the afternoon/evening at Haley's Sister Stacy's house. Shalyn loved her Stocking Stuffers but the best present was her roller skates & skateboard. Believe it or not she asked for them.
Having two weeks off for christmas break is quite nice. In order to pass some time we decided to bake some cookies for the family, make smores, and go to the zoo!
We visited the annual downtown Jacksonville Christmas Boat Parade! Shalyn loved the lit up boats and watched them pass by. She saw Santa, some singing elvis's, boats with plenty of xmas lights and even a submarine (pretend). She made a present for her friend Bretton and went to her friend Salena's concert.
The world's largest outdoor cocktail party held up to its reputation. Every Year the tailgate seems to get better/bigger but the end result got worse? Anyway, we all had a great time downtown even though the weather was off & on.
Thanks to all of you who joined us for the 5th Annual FLAGA Tailgate Party....A special shout out to Maria & Tony for all of your help! I owe you one!
2007 Halloween weekend was jammed pack and loads of fun. Thursday Night Shalyn wore a monkey costume for trick or treating but she also wore a pirate outfit during Haley's School parade.
On Saturday Night, Haley and I took Shalyn to her first SPOOKTACULAR at the Jacksonville Zoo. It was full of people and activities. I wore my Gator gear b/c they were playing Kentucky that night. GO GATORS!
Then on Wednesday Night (Halloween Night)... Sue, Eric, and Uncle Adam came over to see Shalyn. We grilled out on the front driveway and took Shalyn to the neighbors for candy. We had some friends come over as well.
