Corn on the Cob

In between our Natchez to Lake Charles Christmas vacation we stopped at Popeyes. Isabel wanted a corn on the cob. I had to post this picture of her grubbing down on some corn on the cob in her carseat....and not a kernal missed!

This picture was taken via phone.

Teddy Bear Tea

This morning I took Isabel to the Roosevelt Teddy Bear Tea. We got all dolled up and had a mommy and me morning. It was beautifully decorated with appeances made by Santa, Reindeer, Mrs. Claus, Sugar Plum Fairy, and Santas Helpers. Isabel looked like a doll in her Christmas dress! She loved Santa...and was so nervous to sit on his lap. She was not so sure about the very large reindeer....see picture below. I am definitely going to make this a Jenkins girl tradition each year....We Loved It!! And at the end we got a keepsake Teddy Bear to remember our special day.

Merry Christmas

We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Thank you Uncle Beau for the Christmas card design!

Trip to Scottsdale, Arizona

We had an amazing time visiting the Medley's in Scottsdale, Arizona (December 9-12). Isabel had her first flight and did quite well....considering her head cold/ear infection. She was enamoured by the airplanes and was so excited she did not take naps on both flying days. Thanks to Andrew and Marissa we were able to enjoy some of the beautiful desert scenes and we even went horsebake riding to the exact place Andrew proposed to Marissa. I also got to love on my beautiful Godchild....baby Davis. We had such a wonderful time....we will be back!
