Lordy, Lordy. Jennifer's 40

My baby sister turns 40 on January 15th. Her husband, Anthony, planned a surprise party for her. All was well with the plans until he accidently texted her a copy of the message we received letting us know the location had been changed. Oh well. She was, however, surprised to see Aunt Cheryl and Uncle Mel. They drove up from Albany, GA just for the party. We haven't seen them in about 4 years. It was great to visit with them Momma Hope, Aunt Beckie and Uncle Bill.

Dad couldn't make the party. He was in LA duck hunting. However, he called and talked to her while we were at the party. Jennifer cried while talking to him. Will WE ever grow up? Or do we just have the Burnette blood in us?

Happy Birthday, Baby Sister. 40 isn't all that bad!

A Great 2008

It was a quiet evening at the Liles house. We watched Clemson get beat by the "War Geagles". During half time, Rebecca talked Eric into shooting the firewords Momma Hope and Grandad had given him for Christmas. We had a great time shooting ours and watching our neighbors.

Our New Year's Resolutions are:
Rebecca: Have 2 good school years (End of 5th and Beginning of 6th)
Kelli: 1.)Go to bed on time. 2.) Cook at home more.
Eric: 1.)Spend more time with Kelli and Rebecca. 2.)Eat less where ever I'm eating.

A Tennessee Christmas

Mom and Dad moved to Knoxville back in November. We all enjoyed Christmas in their new house. Jennifer, Anthony, Jordan, and Logan arrived before we did. We all enjoyed yummy spaghetti and then got down to business. It is Jordan and Rebecca's job to pass out the presents to everyone. We all wait until they are all passed out and then the floor becomes a pile of wrapping paper.

Mom said that every time she went shopping for Christmas, she came home with stuff for the new house. She and dad decided to give us money instead of gifts this year. We were all thrilled with that idea. We spent it over and over in our minds atleast 100 times.

Jennifer and her family were able to stay for a couple of days. We enjoyed shopping, eating, and sharing stories. It's always great to be around family.

Christmas Eve Fireworks

It is a tradition in Eric's family to shoot fireworks on Christmas Eve. We've done it ever since Rebecca was little. She begs every year to go buy the fireworks. This year, we were invited over to Eric's uncles house to do the fireworks with his family. Maw Maw, Uncle Perry, Deb, Katie, Stephanie, Aunt Faye, Brayden, Mikayla, Tenille, Brian, and a couple of others were there for the excitement. I have never seen so many fireworks. Perry delivered a fun night full of food, family, and fireworks. I hope it's something we'll do every year.
