What a weekend! Friday night, Rhett and I ate some yummy ribs at Smokey Bones with Kristi and Ruco. I love Smokey Bones' Twisted Timbers! It's a drink mixture between frozen margarita and frozen strawberry daiquiri. They are definitely a favorite of mine. After dinner, Rhett and I went to the mall and Christmas shopped! We did pretty good and got most of it done. We just have a few more things to get.Saturday was fun as well. Rhett and I (well, it was me who wanted to go) took little Aubbie and got her picture taken with Santa Claus PetSmart!! It was hilarious. Aubbie was not cooperating and did not want to look at the camera! Instead, she wanted to play with Santa! It took a little coaxing and alot of help from the PetSmart staff to finally get a few good pictures of her looking at the camera. After PetSmart, we went to Rhett's parent's house to give them an extra copy of our picture with Santa. Rhett's parents showed us their "tree" in their den!! OMG!! It is soooo funny, but mostly cute! In Rhett's den they have this woven thing that hangs from the ceiling and it actually has the pointy shape of a Christmas tree. Well, instead of buying a real Christmas tree like they do every year, they decorated the woven piece and made it look what Rhett's dad likes to call "artsy"! It actually looks neat. It's definitely different, I can say that for sure! Rhett's dad said you can tell they're retired! Well, later that night Rhett and I went to the Melting Pot for dessert!! We definitely can't afford dinner there so we ate a couple sandwiches at home and saved our appetite for the awesome chocolate fondue! Yummmmy!
Rhett, Aubbie, and I with the happiest Santa Claus on earth!

A picture I took of Rhett while we were at the Melting Pot! He looks like a GHOST!
Sunday was the most exciting day of the weekend! Rhett and I couldn't wait so we decided to go ahead and give each other our Christmas presents....WE BOUGHT A HOUSE!!! YAY! We absolutely love it! The floor plan, the lot, the location, everything is great and we are so excited because we really did just happen to stumble across it. We put the deposit (which goes towards closing costs in the end) down, so it is a for sure thing!! Our house is estimated to be done towards the end of April. Now that we have finally found what we want, I can breath easier. We are going to set up an appointment for this week to meet with a lady at the design center for Henry Homes. That will be my favorite part because that's where Rhett and I get to pick out colors and such for the cabinets, carpets, siding, and counter tops. Now the fun really begins!!
Our floor plan...this one is definitely set in stone! We love it!
I am soooooo excited about all that Rhett and I have planned in the year 2007!! I can hardly contain myself!
