A Redneck Christmas

The Deviney's have a Christmas party every year and for the past two years it has been Redneck themed. Drew and I had to miss last year, but we wouldn't dare miss it again. It was so much fun to see everyone all decked out.... some pulled out all the stops. Our outfits paled in comparison to some. But it was so much fun for everyone. We all sang the 12 Redneck Days of Christmas, the adults played the Newlywed game and then we played dirty Santa with mostly redneck gag gifts. They were hilarious too. Here are a few pictures from last night. Hope you enjoy them as much as we had fun at the party. Thanks Mr. Bruce and Mrs. Terri for an unforgettable night.

Tacky Sweaters and the Stitchin' Girls

Well, my mom is part of a group of ladies who have been getting together for at least 20 years. They call themselves the stitchin' girls. They used to stitch a long time ago but they don't any more. They get together and go out to eat and just fellowship with each other. They are some of my mom's best friends and they have been through everything together. So, this Christmas they decided to invite their daughters and if they didn't have a daughter they brought their daughter in laws. We had dinner and played dirty Santa. It was so much fun and it's so neat to see how they are all still such great friends after all these years. I only hope to have such great friends many years later. Thanks to the stitchin girls for letting us crash your party this year.... although they did have their own party so they could talk about all of us as they usually do. haha.




The whole gang!


Aunt Vickie, Megan, me and Mom



Me and mom were trying to take a picture..... but as you can see we got so tickled that this is the best one we got. I love it though.

Clinton Christmas Parade

This past weekend we went to Clinton's Christmas parade. It was a little cold but we all survived. Kaytlin really enjoyed all of the lights and music. She waved to the people on the floats. We also got to see Santa and Mrs. Claus. We watched the parade with our friends and old neighbors Craig, Anna and Brooke. We got to eat with them after too which was goo to catch up since they've been gone from the neighborhood. So it was a fun night and I'm sure we'll be going every year. Here are a few pictures from the parade for you to enjoy.




Kaytlin and Daddy watching the parade. I love this picture.

A Quick Update

Well it's been a while since I posted, but we've been so busy lately. It's not slowing down either with Christmas fastly approaching. Well Kaytlin will be 13 months tomorrow. I can't believe she's getting so big. She is walking everywhere... we've got to post some videos of her going to town. She's so cute to watch. We are so blessed to have her in our lives. We've had Callie over to play today which was fun. Kaytlin had alot of fun playing with her and loves having a friend around. We've had some new pictures done but they are already off of the website of the photographer.... so we'll try to scan some in soon. We are looking forward to Christmas. I know it will be tons of fun for Kaytlin and us. We are thankful to finally have a weekend of nothing to do. We're gonna finish putting up the lights outside and that's about all I have planned. I may actually see if I can get my facial appt for tomorrow and Drew said he would keep Kaytlin so I could. What a great Daddy. I couldn't be more blessed with a better husband and incredible daddy to Kaytlin. Tomorrow night is Clinton's Christmas parade. We may try to take Kaytlin but it will be so cold. I think she'll love it. If so we'll post some pics of that as well!!!
