marleyisms...

 We most certainly can't finish out 2024 without a recap of this year's "Marleyisms".  She never fails us...

Marley (as 20/20 is coming on tv): “Ugh I cannot watch 20/20! They’re so outdated they can’t even update their name to 2024…”

Marley: “Why was Mrs. Bill walking with a noise box?”

Me: “That would be a Walkman Marley.”

As Marley is going on and on about Taylor Swift…

Grammy Carol: “Have you watched more football this year?”

Marley: “Yep! I even know when they make a homerun!”

As she throws her hands in the air…

Tonight we were driving along the Brazos looking how high the water was. A man goes running by and Marley says, “Wow either that guys really sweaty, or he’s got a shiny finish.”

Marley: “At least in Lake Murvaul THEY don’t have crocodiles.”

ME: “You mean alligators.”

Marley: “Well they’re the same thing. Alligators are just girls and crocodiles are boys.”

Me: “Nope. That’s not accurate.”

Marley: “Yes it is! That’s why they’re called alGALigators.”

Me: “Hey Marley will you go get me some more coke please?”

Marley (after going to refill my drink): “I’m so confused. They had Diet Coke and Coca-Cola so I just got you Coca-Cola. I couldn’t find just the Coke.”

christmas...

 Christmas is a time of so much fun with family and friends and this year was no different.  We enjoyed time with both of our family's and are so thankful for the time we all had together.  This year I'm pretty sure Adam and I were more excited about Marley opening her gifts than she was!  She had not asked for much and we thought we had totally knocked it out of the park on surprising her with gifts this year.  I we sure had!  She got the Uggs she had been asking for since last year, legos, a "wickit, wickit", curling iron and other fun things.  Perhaps the best two kept secrets were the tickets to a Forrest Frank concert with her 2 besties in May and a phone!  She was absolutely shocked by the phone!  Literal tears of joy!  

I just love her and our little family!
