Basketball, Birthday, Makeovers and More

So I had to start this post with this super cute picture of Fenway.  She fell asleep like this the other night, and yes she got a hold of the remote all by herself.  How cute is that?


Daddy was giving shoulder rides when they decided they should both climb on him at the same time.  Just another typical night at the Wimberly household.

Thanks to Justin's friend at work and Seth's soccer coach we ended up with 3rd row seats to the FSU vs. Virginia basketball game.  Seth looks pretty bummed in the picture below but in his defense, they had just done some indoor fireworks that were a little scary.  He cheered up and actually watched every minute of the basketball game and thoroughly enjoyed it.  I was impressed it held his attention for the entire game.  McKayla also enjoyed the game but she was a bit distracted waiting for her friend Sophia to meet us there so they could have a sleep over that night. 



Back in December Justin and I painted the kid's rooms and just this weekend we put up some new shelves in their rooms.  Her's was pink and his was the same shade of blue, we just added the stripes.








What else has been going on this month? Well, we've had lots of soccer games and practices and I must say they have both gotten really good at it.  Seth has now scored 2 goals this season and McKayla has played goalie at the last 3 games and has only let 2 goals get past her.  We're getting excited for t-ball to start and for Justin to be a coach this year. Not to mention that means spring and warm weather are on the way and who doesn't love that!

We also celebrated a birthday this month, mine!  Justin and I celebrated my 29th birthday last week by getting takeout from Bonefish (I didn't want to go out).  I got completely spoiled by Justin and all my family and friends.  I can honestly say that with all the exciting things happening this year, I'm pretty happy to get a year older and don't mind one bit that 30 is only one year away. 

Well, that's all for now but I'll keep you posted...

Soccer Stars

January has been full of, well, soccer.  McKayla has practice on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 5:30 and Seth has practice on Wednesdays at 6:45.  Then, on Saturdays they both have games at different fields even though they practice at the same place.  His games are at Meridian park while hers are at Tom Brown Park (about 15-20 min. apart). Naturally, all of their games are either back to back or at the same exact time.  That means we never get to see an entire game for either of them and when they are with us we have to take two cars. Ugh!  Oh well, what can you do?  They both seem to love it although they both lost their first 3 games.  This past weekend McKayla's team won their first game 2-0 and Seth scored his first goal.  It was a great day for soccer!

Pictures from the first games...



That has really taken up most of our time besides work, school and planning for baby Huck.  We also got tickets to PBR (the rodeo) with Meghan, Sam, and Matt.  The kids really loved it!


Well, I know it doesn't seem like much but that was our January and it was truly much busier than it sounds!

Our First Anniversary

New Year's Eve marked our one year anniversary!  We celebrated by getting eachother gifts (a kindle for him and our wedding vows framed and perfume for me), going out to dinner, going to a comedy show, ringing in the new year with a couple friends in midtown, and eating a slice of our cake!

Here's a list of some wonderful things that happened in our first year of marriage:

The four of us, Justin, McKayla, Seth, and I became a pretty awesome family, if I may say so!

We celebrated my 28th birthday. Eeeekkkkkk!

Justin and I took a mini-moon to Savannah, Georgia.

Seth played his first season of t-ball.

We added a new addition to the family, Fenway!

Seth graduated from Pre-Kindergarten.

We took a trip to Wet 'n' Wild and Islands of Adventure.

We had an AWESOME summer that included our "Summer Chain of Events" as you may remember.









We survived the first day of school (them and me).

We celebrated Justin's 35th birthday.

We decided to expand our family!


We had a FABULOUS birthday party for Seth (6) and McKayla (9).

Seth had his first flag-football game.

We went to a few FSU football games.

We celebrated our first Christmas as a family.  

And last but not least, we celebrated our first year of marriage.
A terrible picture of us!!!

Our wedding cake I made last year.  It still looked pretty good and it tasted delicious!

2011 was a great year and a wonderful first year of marriage.  I can't wait to see what 2012 has to offer!
