$5.00 Gift Exchange Game
Austin and Hallie playing after dinner.
Last year mom, dad, kelsee, emma, and tyler (who was just the boyfriend at the time) came down after Christmas for New Years. Since we didn't spend Christmas together we decided to play the $5.00 gift exchange game. It turned out really fun so we decided to play it again this year on Christmas Eve.
Mom starting the game off.
Austin opened up this machete. Kelsee and Tyler found it at Walmart. I want to know why the heck you can easily buy a machete at your local Walmart for $5.00. Super safe don't you think?
One of my mom and dad's gifts was this hilarious pair of shorts with jingle bells on them. They were one of the first presents opened and definitely got passed around. They quickly were nicknamed the jingle ball shorts and the joke started being that whoever had them had to put them on. Austin and I ended up with them in the end.
Steve and Austin having a little to much fun.
I cant remember who brought the flask......but all the boys were fighting over it.
Tyler opened up these Tansformers gloves and beanie......they were a little small, but the beanie lights up.
You don't really understand human nature unless you know why a child on a merry-go-round will wave at his parents every time around... and why his parents will always wave back.

Our Wedding Day
From Here to Eternity
Our AMAZING Parents
Good, honest, hardheaded character is a function of the home. If the proper seed is sown there and properly nourished for a few years, it will not be easy for that plant to be uprooted.
Austin and I met in February 2007 through mutual friends. We started dating and were engaged by the end of April. We were married July 11, 2007. Austin is the youngest of 5 children and I am the oldest of 5. We are loving life together, and during the first seven years of marriage have lived in 4 different states. After 5 years of infertility struggles we were blessed with our amazing son Jud, and he is the light of our life. We are hopeful that many more children will be in our future....each day is a blessing.
"Come what may, and love it".
