THANKSGIVING DAY!!

MY CUTE HUSBAND AND MY MOTHER TAKE A ODDLY PHOTOGENIC TOGETHER. OUR FAMILY WENT TO MY COUSIN, TAMMY'S HOUSE AND HAD A DELICIOUS THANKSGIVING DINNER. THE BOYS PLAYED WITH THEIR COUSINS, WE TALKED ABOUT WHAT WE WERE THANKFUL FOR, HAD DINNER, AND OF COURSE WATCHED FOOTBALL. IT WAS A GREAT TIME. FOLLOWING TAMMY'S WE WENT TO PAT AND LARRY'S TO DO THANKSGIVING DESSERT WITH THEIR FAMILY. IT WAS SUCH A NICE TIME.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

MILES' MOTHER'S DAY OUT CLASS CELEBRATED THANKSGIVING WITH A SPECIAL LUNCHEON FOR PARENTS AND GRANDPARENTS. MILES' CLASS HAD MADE INDIAN HEADGEAR AND I DRESSED THE BOYS IN THEIR MATCHING TURKEY SHIRTS. WE HAD A GREAT LUNCH AND I THINK MILES ENJOYED HAVING LUNCH WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS. THESE ARE MEMORIES THAT WE WILL NEVER FORGET. GOBBLE GOBBLE.

TEACHERS GONE WILD...GATLINBURG 2007

WELL MOMMY'S FIRST TRIP AWAY FROM MY BOYS WAS SO MUCH FUN. THE GIRLS THAT I TEACH WITH AND I DECIDED MONTHS AGO TO TAKE AN OVERNIGHT TRIP TO GATLINBURG, TN. WE VISITED THE OUTLET MALLS, WALKED THE STRIP, WENT OUT FOR DINNER AND DANCING, AND HAD SO SO SO MANY LAUGHS. IT WAS A GREAT TRIP. ALLISON IS PREGNANT BUT HUNG WITH US LIKE A TROOPER. SUSAN AND I SURE MISSED OUR BABIES BUT WERE SECRETLY GLAD TO HAVE A LITTLE GROWN UP TIME. HOPEFULLY THIS WONT BE OUR LAST TRIP TOGETHER. IT WOULD BE ASHAME TO MISS OUT ON SO MUCH FUN AGAIN.

PLAY DATE

MOMMY, MILES, AND LUKE MET EVAN, HIS MOMMY, AND BABY BROTHER AT KIDS' PARTY JUMP FOR A PLAY DATE ON FRIDAY. MILES AND EVAN HAD SUCH A GREAT TIME JUMPING ON ALL OF THE DIFFERENT INFLATABLES. LUKE DOESNT LIKE IT...HE IS A LITTLE TOO YOUNG. HE PREFERS TO RIDE THE TRICYCLES AND OTHER LITTLE TOYS THEY HAVE AVAILABLE. MY BOYS ARE GETTING SO BIG.

SESAME STREET LIVE

MOMMY, LUKE, SUSAN, AND KENNEDI WENT TO SESAME STREET LIVE LAST WEEK. IT WASNT UNTIL 7:00 THAT NIGHT IN NASHVILLE SO WE WERE UNSURE HOW THE BABIES WOULD DO THAT LATE. IT WAS GREAT!! KENNEDI AND LUKE LOVED SEEING ALL OF THE DANCING AND SINGING CHARACTERS OF SESAME STREET. LUKE WAS PARTICULARLY ENTHRALLED WITH ELMO. HE CALLED FOR HIM ALL NIGHT. WE WRAPPED THE NIGHT UP WITH THESE FABULOUS (HA HA) $8.00 BALLOONS. LUKE'S IS STILL FLYING HIGH IN THE HOUSE. HE ACTUALLY WOKE UP THE NEXT MORNING AND SAID "BALLOON." GREAT TIMES!!!

MOMMY'S ANGELS

THIS WAS A RANDOM PICTURE SHOT AT MOM AND DAD'S HOUSE A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO. YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN A GREAT PHOTO OP WILL PRESENT ITSELF. THEY WERE SHARING A STOOL DOWN IN MOM'S SHOP AND JUST SAT BACK TO BACK WITH ADORABLE SMILES. I TOOK ADVANTAGE OF THE OPPORTUNITY AND LOOK WHAT I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO CAPTURE. THEY ARE MY BABIES.

POWER UP MILES WITH HIS MUCH OLDER GIRLFRIEND, MAISIE

MILES WAS A RED POWER RANGER FOR HALLOWEEN. HE WAS JUST AT THE RIGHT AGE THIS YEAR TO HAVE A BLAST. WE WENT TRICK OR TREATING IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD THEN IT WAS OFF TO NANA'S TO SEE HIS GIRLFRIEND MAISIE. AFTER HITTING SOME MORE HOUSES WE WENT TO NENE'S AND GOT SPECIAL TREATS FOLLOWED BY A DELICIOUS DINNER OF CHILI AND GRILLED CHEESE. JUST WHEN WE THOUGHT THE BOYS WERE EXHAUSTED WE HEADED HOME TO DISCOVER OUR NEIGHBOR, CHRIS, ON HIS GOLF CART. HE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA IF MILES AND I USED THE GOLF CART TO GO TO SOME MORE HOUSES. DADDY AND LUKE CAME INSIDE AND MILES AND I HEADED OUT ON THE GOLF CART FOR SOME MORE TRICK OR TREAT FUN. HE LOVED IT. WHAT AN ADORABLE POWER RANGER.

ITSY BITSY SPIDER...LUKE

LUKE WAS THE MOST ADORABLE SPIDER FOR HALLOWEEN. THE COSTUME WAS SO ADORABLE AND HE LOVED TRICK OR TREATING WITH HIS BIG BROTHER. HE FOLLOWED ALONG RIGHT WITH HIM THE ENTIRE TIME. HE WASNT AFRAID OF ANY GHOSTS OR GOBLINS. IT WAS A GREAT EXPERIENCE.

MILES' HALLOWEEN PARTY AT FIRST BAPTIST

MILES HAD HIS HALLOWEEN PARTY ON OCT. 30TH WITH HIS PARENTS' DAY OUT CLASS. LUKE AND I WENT TO TAKE PLENTY OF GOODIES FOR THE CLASS. LUKE DECIDED HE WANTED TO BE PART OF THE CLASS AND SAT BESIDE HIS BIG BROTHER THE ENTIRE TIME. HE ATE LUNCH WITH THE CLASS LIKE A BIG BOY. MILES AND HIS FRIENDS HAD FUN AT THE PARTY AND MILES BEHAVED SO WELL. I AM SO GLAD THAT I WAS A PART OF IT.
