New Year Pictures

Cole Truitt...he was my little buddy!

Cole and Alex found thier favorite place...the toy closet.

Karissa and Andrea hiding out at the kitchen table so they could play Polly Pockets with no boys bothering them. The girls are way outnumbered on the Truitt side of the family!

Alex with his bestest buddy, Lauren. Look at that wild hair!! Troy is telling me its time for a haircut but the curls are just to sweet!

A boy can never have to many matchbox cars!

Me and my favorite guy!

Stevie and Seth...can you see the mischief in those eyes?!

Just waiting to dive into those presents.

Karissa... her eyes just sparkle!

The Truitt clan, well part of them. We kept meaning to try and take a family picture...you try rounding up 12 kids at the same time not to mention them being dressed and looking presentable all at the same time! I guess we just didn't have the energy we needed!

Our family drove to Adamsville, Alabama on Christmas eve to spend a few days with Troy's famly. Troy had to preach a funeral that morning so we were packed up and headed out as soon as he got home. Katie and Tara Snodgrass had spent a few days with us so we loaded them up as well to take them home. We had a great time with all 20 of us at Jesse and Mandy's house. Out of the 20 people there, 12 of them were under the age of 15...so there were no dull moments to say the least!

Random Christmas Pictures

I finally got some pictures downloaded from Christmas. There is really no order to them...:)
Penny, Jenn, Patti, Mammaw, Mom

Lauren and Troy

Emily, Andrea and Alissa on Christmas Sunday

Troy, Alex and Jenn after Alexs' dedication.... a funny story to go along with his dedication! Sunday morning was crazy around here with company and with me finding out I had to play the piano about 15 minutes before we were supposed to leave for church. So I asked Luke to get Alex dressed and ready since I was running around in a dither! I told him what to put on him and left him with it. I was on the piano bench when we went up to have Alex dedicated. To my horror his hair had not been combed and was wild with little curls all over the top of his head, he had on a cute outfit, white tube socks and no shoes. He had cute little navy oxfords that he was supposed to be wearing but, when I told Luke to put his white knee socks on him, he just grabbed a pair of white play socks and couldn't get his shoes on so.....there he was! I guess that's what happens when you are #6 and your mother is maxed out! We did get a good chuckle out of it and he was dedicated with no problem even with messy hair and no shoes!:)
