December is my favorite month, not because it is cold, but because I love having excuses to eat really yummy food and hang out with my family. I have the best family in the world. Some times I take for granted just how wonderful they are to me!! This past Sunday we went and picked out of Christmas tree. We, included M's family. It has been our tradition to go pick out a real tree and I could not wait for C to join us in doing that. The past two Christmas', he wasn't old enough to really understand. This time, all he said was 'Whoa, tree Mommy', 'Whoa, ights!'. He was so excited! Then once we were able to put the tree up and decorate it-He loved that too! He said 1000 times, 'Thank you, ights Mommy' and 'Thank you, ights Daddy'. I put the lights on the tree and M put the lights on the house! He was so excited. The first ornament he wanted to put on the tree was a deer. 'Shoot, dea' (shoot deer) That's what he says...every time he s...

This was sent to me is an email and I thought it was cute and very true!! Twas the Month Before Christmas When all through our land, Not a Christian was praying Nor taking a stand. See the PC Police had taken away The reason for Christmas - no one could say. The children were told by their schools not to sing About Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and things. It might hurt people's feelings, the teachers would say December 25th is just a ' Holiday '. Yet the shoppers were ready with cash, checks and credit Pushing folks down to the floor just to get it! CDs from Madonna, an X BOX, an I-Pod Something was changing, something quite odd! Retailers promoted Ramadan and Kwanzaa In hopes to sell books by Franken & Fonda. As Targets were hanging their trees upside down At Lowe's the word Christmas - was no where to be found. At K-Mart and Staples and Penny's and Sears You won't hear the word Christmas; it won't touch your ea...

Ok so my newest craze is couponing. My mother in law invited me to a couponing class a few weeks ago and I went. I had heard of couponing, but never looked into it to see how it worked. So, once I went to the class, I looked into it a little more. Wow, how easy it is to save money. All you have to do is go to a website and she tells you everything you need to know. She does all the work. You just have to decide what you want and where you want to go. So last night I went to Kroger...my store of choice. And I spent $89.00. But, I have $72 in coupons and sales!! Wow! I can get used to this. I called M and told him and then had to call someone else..so I called Dad. Call me the Coupon Queen. I can't wait for the next sale paper and coupons to come out!!! If you want to know more about it and live near me. Im going to another class this Sunday night. Or you can go on the website yourself. southersavers.com  She is very detailed and helpful. I've just done this one time, but she s...

Yes, It was a week ago, but blogging isn't my only chore. Last Saturday, November 6th my baby L got married. She was so beautiful! I was so honored to be apart of that day. I remember when she met J. We were all a little sceptical about it. He was a friend of a high school classmate, and it was a blind date. But they met and had a good time and it was history from there. The first time I met J, L, asked M and I to go to the Cumming Country Fair with them. M and I being country music fans were very excited to go. Because M and I started dating so long ago, he is like a big brother to L. They both bicker and protect each other like siblings. Michael kind of had a gut feeling J was going to be a good guy because he like Charlie Daniels and he knew the old country songs. After the concert we stopped my DQ, and had ice cream. For those of you that don't know, M doesn't like chocolate. Well at least that is what he says, but he will eat peanut M&M's, snickers, an...

Two days from now you will be two years old! Over that past year you have become such a little man. You have learned so much and have really acquired a personality. At the end of November 2009, you got to meet almost all of your family on your Mommy's side. For Thanksgiving almost all of Mimi's family came into town for the weekend. March you were in Uncle Matthew's wedding. You and Tiffany's cousin's little boy were the 'stars of the show'. Everyone was so entertained by you two. You wanted to pick up all the flowers that the flower girls dropped! Starting out early summer you got to fish with your Daddy. Mother's Day we had a picnic at Lanier.  Later that month you got to ride on Paw Paw's boat. (which he soon there after sold =( )  You got to spend two weeks at the beach. Which you loved swimming and playing in the sand or in the water's edge. There you really started talking. You said 'bo' (boat), 'gactor' (tractor), 'b...

This is my blog that I use to update my friends and family. It's to help keep everyone connected and to update those who do not live nearby. I kind of use it to get rid of stress too! So I say this to say, I have been very selective as to who I am friends with on Facebook and who I email my blog link to, this is to protect me and my family. Notice I only use our initials when I talk about us. So, I would appericate it if you are one of the ones that I let have the link to my blog that you read it for fun and not use it against me, or share it with others to judge me or my family or the way we do things and who we are. I feel like as my friend or family member I have trusted you to open up my family to you and would hope that you would not share my life with people that I don't trust. Thank you for following us and I hope you enjoy all the little updates of ThePricePress!!

Well, we have managed to keep C out of most things that would make a mess or mess up something, but because we are packing things are out of place and just a mess here at the house. We've had dinner in the living room in from of the tv-against our rules, and Mr. C is getting into everything!!! Last night he got a hold of a permanet maker...black at that! And I promise he was not quiet for 5 minutes before I went to see what he was into. He had written on most of the boxes in the house, he had written down the hall walls, the office door, HIMSELF, a dvd cover, the top of the tv (it was on the floor), the carpet and my dish towel! So I freak out and call Michael to blame him for leaving the marker where C could reach it-to learn, I   was the last to use it! Oops! So I look up on line how to get it off of walls, doors, people, etc...IT WORKED. Nail polish remover! So I have a few pictures to share with you. My Mom said, My cousin and I used a red and black crayon on her wal...
