Peyt lost his FIRST tooth!!!!

This officially sets Peyt as getting old! :( So sad, but so excited for him! He loves it!
Last night around 10, I was talking to him and decided to check his two front bottom teeth cause they have been loose...then I told tys to come see and he was ready to pull it out cause it was almost out anyway. So here he is pre-lost tooth!

Tys getting the floss ready. I could NOT do it! I was freaking out...good thing Tys is calm and cool :) haha
and just like that it was out! Peyt or I didn't even know it was already out. Then Peyt saw a little blood and started to cry! haha

Way to go bud!!! I told him he had to put a note with his tooth that said "take" or "leave", depending on whether he wanted to keep his tooth or not and the tooth fairy would take or leave it. He wanted to the tooth fairy to take it, cause he was afraid if he kept it he would lose it. :) So cute! Way to go bud and yay for the tooth fairy bringing a couple bucks for you!!! Love you Peyt!

*Christmas*

On Christmas eve morning this year, we took it and were able to get SO many things done, caught up on everything for Christmas Day and just enjoyed some time with our little fam before Tys had to do some work stuff. It was really nice just to hang too! but then that night, as always, we went to Grandpa Rich's...
For the dinner and of course the Pickle game! Peyt won again this year! :)
I always find humor in this pic for some reason, the mess with all the grandkids...the dog...and are any of the adults smiling? haha kinda funny!

I even got my hair done by Miss Halle! THANKS girl! :)
Thanks Grandpa and Grandma Love for a Great Christmas eve as always!

Grandpa V Owen Pickett

We had my dear Grandpas viewing and Funeral the past couple days. It is such a sad reality, I think especially to see my Grandma alone. You never saw her without my grandpa by her side. Death is definately more strange than I ever thought when having to deal with it. I know I will miss my Grandpa, but am so happy for him to be healthy and happy and I know he is in a much better place.

Some of his grandkids and great ones!
This is a sign we made for him when he was in the Hospital back in October.
Kinlee loves Matt!
and my dad, love him!
My cute Grandma Pickett
I thought this was such a sweet pic. I know he loves and will miss his dad.











Most the grandkids. Missed you Erin! :) Love you Grandma!



and We will miss you Grandpa Pickett, we love you and hope to always remember the great examples you left behind. I won't forget saying bye to you before they closed your casket, I held your hand and told you I loved you, and my heart was beating so fast...I think that was you saying you loved me back, the spirit is amazing. and at your graveside when I got goosebumps, I know you were there too telling us goodbye. You were such a great man. ...Until we meet again!
