A Very Blakely Christmas

Well....I have officially been a blog SLACKER!! As I sit here with Renee watching the newest Bachelor (gag - can't believe this guy is BACK on here - so much drama), I am realizing that this is the first time since my last post that I have had time to sit down on work on my blog. Lots has been going on since I shared my Christmas list (on December 8th - YIKES). I'll start a series of posts of the holiday festivities that went down with the Muller-Stones!

Ryals and I headed down to Blakely to enjoy some time with the Stone clan! We got to the house late Friday night with John and Kelsey. We had a great dinner courtesy of Mr. Bill Stone and opened some presents with their family friends.

Mr. Roger BUCK loves his presents:

Saturday we slept late and later headed over to Dothan Alabama to see a movie. We saw "Due Date" and I thought it was hilarious! I really like Robert Downey Jr. and would definitely recommend this one (maybe as a rental as I'm not sure if it is still out in theaters). Saturday night was a big night eating, drinking and decorating the MASSIVE Stone family Christmas tree! I had so much fun - later on in the night we broke out the family albums and got to make fun of Ryals and his brothers growing up!

The Drink Du Jour...CrownBerry Juice! Yum - will bring to the farm this weekend:







After a few Crownberries...





John & Kelsey:



Sunday we had the usual lunch at "Mam Mam's" (his dad's mother) with a massive spread of home cooked goodies! I am usually in a food coma when we leave that place! Amongst the goodies were squash casserole, broccoli casserole, fried cornbread (an invention I had never heard of until I met Ryals - we don't have these things in Rome), delicious ham and a homemade RED VELVET CAKE. OMG

We hit the road after that and headed to Atlanta for round two of family Christmas with Ryals' mother's side of the family...more to come!!
