Thankful and Blessed!

Well, Thanksgiving has come and gone but we are all so thankful for our family and all the blessings God has given us! We all met at our house for a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner. We were so blessed to have most of our family with us. Here are Chad and Sam before lunch. Katelynd makes a wonderful baby sitter! Audrey just loves her!!
Lauren and Kim really didn't want their picture made. Oh well, whatever!!
Here are all the kiddos with Anne Marie: Ashley, Patrick, Katelynd, Audrey and Emersyn.

Patrick loves to have his picture made with everyone, even Papa!
Sam and a very tired Audrey. That baby can sleep anywhere!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

A Little Halloween Fun!

Well, the pictures are backwards (again) but we'll start with Sunday night. The whole family came over to cook hamburgers on the grill and greet the trick or treaters. We all sat on the front porch (except Jon, Anne Marie and Emersyn) after dinner to check out all the costumes.

Mother loves to put on a witch hat and "try" to scare all the trick or treaters. She'd peek out from behind one of our columns and say "boooooo". My dad even got in on the act making scary noises and barking like a dog. Lauren just hung out and watched.

This is Chad, the candy man!

Mother in her witch hat with her "mean" face.

Oh well, I copied the same picture twice and don't know how to get rid of it!

On Saturday night, Mom, Dad and I went up to First Baptist Douglasville for trunk or treat. It was a lot of fun watching all the costumes, eating hot dogs and cotton candy and listening to the music. There were about a million kids there!!!

Even Emersyn came, dressed as a frog with a big bow (of course).

Happy Birthday Danny!

Happy Birthday to my wonderful husband who celebrated his birthday on September 22. It's been kind of a crazy time so we were a little late with the party but we finally worked it into everyone's schedule. Thanks for being such a loving, kind father and husband. We love you more than you'll ever know!! How old did you say you are???? What's that???? Yes, I'm still older. Thanks!

Happy, happy Birthday!!!!

A Little More Emersyn!

Our precious Emersyn is 17 days old and such an angel. She has her fussy moments but we wouldn't trade her for the world. She has really rocked Jonathan and Anne Marie's world. No one can tell you what a difference having a baby in the house is. Nothing is untouched or remains the same, especially the ability to sleep! But as it has been said, this too will pass! And it will, in a huge HURRY! We love our little bundle of joy and she is such a tremendous blessing from GOD! I really don't think she's much into these headbands and bows. What a face!!

She loves riding in the car seat!

Such a sweet picture!

Precious, beautiful doll!

She even smiled for her great-grandmother, Mama! (Or maybe it was gas???)

She's HERE!!!!!

Our precious Emersyn Kate has finally arrived. Born August 26 at 9:26pm, she weighed 9 lbs. 7 oz. and was 21 inches long. What a beautiful, wonderful blessing for our family! She is so loved from the top of her head to the bottom of her toes! Welcome precious angel!!!! She's such a mommy's girl right now! No one can comfort her like her mommy!!

What a beautiful new addition to Jon and Anne Marie's family!

We are some very proud grandparents to be known as Nana and Grampa.

More pictures to follow!!

Happy Birthday Jonathan!

Can't believe Jonathan's birthday has come and gone! I'm a little behind. Life is pretty crazy right now but we got together and grilled hamburgers, hot dogs and had cake and ice cream on Saturday to celebrate the birth of a wonderful, loving, talented young man. He makes us so proud to call him son! As you can see, my pictures are backwards again. (I'll never learn!)

Pretty mean to make the poor guy light his own candles!

We love you Jonathan and are sooo, soooo, proud of the fine young man you've become! Can't believe you're 29. Jeez, don't blink!!!!

Happy Birthday Lauren!

Can't believe our beautiful Lauren turned 26 in July. We went to the "Little Hawaiian" in Carrolton to celebrate! The food there is awesome and we enjoyed every bite! Here we are, just the girls! Can you tell I came from work????

We love you Lauren! You are so special and such a blessing to our family!!! God did really good when he gave you to us!!!!!!!
