Christmas night.

We spent Christmas night at Nana and Pops. We had such a good time. It is always a blast when everyone is together.


Ollie the Octipus was a hit. He is so big and soft. Sailor just loves to sit and look at him. Of course Peyton and Colton had to take their turn sitting on him!





Sailor loves her little entertainment center from Heather, Bruce, Peyton and Colton.

Sacked out!

Everyone played so hard with all of their toys, this was the result!

Christmas morning!

Santa came to town! Sailor has been such a good girl. She got everything she wanted. Sailor got me a beautiful mother's birthstone necklace and daddy a Willowtree Father and baby statue.



Beamer was not forgotten. He must have been good. His bone was so big, he could not fit through the couch and the wall!

Monday evening we attended a wonderful candle light service at church. It was beautiful. Then we went down to Granny Fran and Granddaddy's house. Sailor was not a very happy camper for some reason at their house, so I don't have too many pics.

After all the fun on Saturday with Joey, Cathy and the girls we had more festivities at GrannyWanda's house last Sunday night. Sailor got lot's of great toys like a baby doll, Charlie the Caterpillar and a big bag of really soft stuffed animals from Uncle Jamie and soon to be Aunt Paula. Jamie and Paula got engaged over the Holiday. Congratuations. Sailor got to meet the both of them for the second time. They hadn't seen her since the day she was born. Needless to say they thought she has changed a lot.

What a difference a year makes!!

This has been one great year.

Family Picture 2006. All about the dogs! I have to get a copy of this years from mom.

Barker Family Christmas!!

Last night my mom's brother, my uncle Joey and his family made the trip from South Pittsburg to Rockwood for our annual get together. We had a great time as always.

No, dad is not sleeping as usual, he just closed his eyes for the pic!

Christmas pictures!!!

There were way to many good pictures to post so again I tried to make a slideshow. I hope it works. Last time it posted twice. Carrie came to take her picture last week. It was more of a challenge this time vs at 6 weeks because she was awake the whole time. Carrie did a great job. I am very pleased. Can't wait to take more. It is so exciting to see her change and grow. She just can't quit smiling. It amazes me. Hope you all enjoy. We sure are!! Merry Christmas

Elf Yourself!!!

O.K. I have been really bad with keeping up lately. Life has become full of choices. Do I??? Do the Laudry? Do the dishes? Cook supper? Sweep? Dust? Sometimes I even have to decide between taking a shower or eating. So needless to say blogging has not been tops on the list. Anyway, I enjoy seeing everyone and keeping up.
Please, please, please check out this sight and make sure to watch it through Sailor comes back at the end. It is great, thanks aunt Heather, Peyton and Colton!!!

Ho Ho Ho!

Tonight Joe, Sailor and I went to meet Santa! She looked so adorable in her new Christmas dress. We were a little disappointed in Santa. Or should I say I was disappointed. He was a prime example of someone who does not enjoy their job. He didn't smile, say ho ho ho, or anything. He just said pick a hip as I put Sailor in his lap. Oh well, Sailor did great. She was a little sleepy since we got stuck in a traffic jam on the way and it took ~2 hours to get to the mall. It was fun anyway. Hope you enjoy the picture!

I'm getting so big!

Sailor is getting so big. I have not been very good at blogging lately. We have been so busy it seems. As I am sure everyone is this time of year. I am just learning how to prioritize and get things done. Sailor is changing so much and doing more everyday. Her new nickname is smiley. Sometimes she smiles so big it makes your cheeks hurt to look at her. Of course, my heart melts everytime I look at her. I love her more and more everyday, every minute, every second.


Just a little tired again.

Love my new seat!

Getting a little bit tired!

Well it is not really new, I've had it since before I was born. Thanks Casey and Doris. Mom is just now getting around to getting it out of the closet when I could have been sitting in it for a while now! Anyway it is really cool. I feel like a big girl.
