New Years 2011

This year for New Years we headed down to Atlanta to stay with Holly and Cameron. They also had some friends visiting from Virgina who we were also friends with when we were dating so it was nice to hang out with them too. Our time the Noblit's is never long enough but luckily we aren't super far away so we get to hang out

The kids had their New Year's at 10:00. There was no way they were making it until midnight.

Christmas 2010



This year we spent Christmas in Virgina with Paul's parents and his sister Heather. We filled our time traveling to Paul's grandmothers house in Staunton, going to movings, checking out the light displays and playing in the snow. We had such a great time. I know I always say this but it was so nice to be able to relax and spend time with those we love.

Aiden was more into opening presents this year but not quite as much as we thought he would be. Don't let this picture fool you. It took almost the whole day of coming back and forth for him to finish opening all of his presents.


Helping Grandpa open his present

In the Richmond area you can always find a lot of awesome light displays. They call it the tacky light tour and that it is. Some of these displays start going up in September just so they can be ready for the holiday season.










While we were in Staunton visiting Grandma Cauley we drove up to visist Grandpa Cauleys gravesight. He died before Aiden was born so he never got to meet him we will make sure he knows who great grandpa Cauley was and what a good example he was and still is to his family.

We also had a white Christmas. Aiden had so much fun playing in the snow. We didn't have boots for him so Grandma had the great idea to zip tie plastic bags to his feet so his shoes wouldn't get wet. It worked out perfectly.


Tiger Refuge

One weekend in November when Holly and Cameron decided to visit we decided to check out the Tiger Refuge that is about 30 min down the road. It was pretty neat. If we would have gone a couple weeks later we would have seen the lions but we still saw a lot of different cats. Just watch out for the tigers. They spray. Ask Paul and Kyra.

Please ignore the bad picture quality. It was the best I could do with the chain link fences
