Hometown Christmas

Saturday was the local Christmas parade that my family and I alway head out to then come back to our home for chili, soup, and snacks. We always have the best time with out family, not to mention the good food. I finally made the red velvet cake balls (first time was Thanksgiving) and they have become a huge hit around here. They are way to sweet for this girl though! Charli loved the parade, most of all the marching band & the fire trucks. Her face just lit up everytime something she liked would come by. Although, if you are from a small town fire trucks, horses and the marching band is almost the entire parade. A little redneck, but we enjoy it!




Last week we attended the Hometown Christmas, which was held on our square. Not many people showed up for the due to the weather being so cold, but we bundled up and headed up there so that we could get a few discounts at the local stores.

    How fun, I love your small town. I sort of wish I lived somewhere like that. It seems so much more personal there. I'm glad you guys had a good time.

    aww... I'm glad you all braved the cold to make some fun memories. I am dying to go to the Blackbird Boutique! Looks too cute. Speaking of cute, your family pics are beautiful and I love the pink Christmas tree. I think I'll add one for K next year!
