On Friday night we had an Abney family Christmas dinner with my aunt Pam at Modern Steak. It was a BEAUTIFUL restaurant. I wanted to take pictures everywhere. Too bad they didn't all come out. Travis said it was the best steak he'd ever had. If you go, please get the artichoke cheese balls- so good! We had our first mock-tails, that's how classy this was. It fun acting like we were fancy and hip.
Pam, who is SO NICE & generous rented a private room. It was like our own little restaurant. Definitely a special night for us.
Haylee and Tucker babysat for us. This night I learned that Haylee has a more than friends friend. I can't get over it. I always thought that I would be a "cool mom" that when my kids had crushes or held hands with someone that I would be all over it. Getting excited for them and acting like that was great. Not gonna happen. Haylee, who I have loved tons from her existence, is my niece, not my child and I felt stress, excitement, stress, fun, stress. I mean I can see why any boy would love her, she's beautiful and smart but how can she already be in the adult world of relationships? Haylee don't hate me for posting this but we had a lesson on journaling today and this is my journal so I felt it important to record the day when I realized I will not be a "cool mom."
