A December Favorite

Earlier this month, we continued our tradition of going to the Pink Pig with Ms. Katie and Ethan and Ms. Kristen and Collin and Katelyn! We had so much fun! The three youngest waited patiently in their strollers pretty expressionless about what was to come...

Ethan taking it all in...

Kristen and her kiddos...

And you have to get pictures in front of the famous "Pink Pig" sign...

Buddies Colt and Collin in their own seat!

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!

Christmas Card take 284!

So, I always try and take the perfect picture for our Christmas card...and I guess after making my family take oh about 150 pictures, we usually end up with a pretty cute one! But I had to share some of the two of them that just make me giggle!

Colt had no idea this look was on her face...

Laughing so hard you can see down Colt's throat...

And Sissy is so silly...

Scrunching their noses...

Shaking their booties...

But the two most precious faces...I LOVE my babies!

Oh, and here's the winner...

Fun times with great friends...

The week before Thanksgiving, we had several families over to watch the Georgia game and had such a great time! Adam and Carrie were also in town between their move to Charlotte. So, it was the Muscharas, Moores, Bashams, Steads, and Cox families. Between all of us, there were 9 kids and boy was that fun! Here are a few pics...

While the boys both chose something with wheels to go down the hill, Marley chose her belly!

So, the boys join her...

And Colt and Marley get silly...

And the others join us...

And we made turkey cookies...

Here is sweet Ben...

Katelyn concentrating hard on hers...

Collin's is pretty on the money...

Colt enjoyed eating it too...

Cohen analyzing his cookie...

Marley's smile says it best about what kind of night we had!

One of my favorite months of the year...

October is one of my favorite months...great weather, fun activities, beautiful scenery outside, fall festivals, apple cider, our anniversary...I could go on and on! And this year was no different...we had such a fun month spending it with family and friends.

Wes' Aunt Sandy came to visit and we took the kids to Hillcrest Orchards in Ellijay. They LOVED it...a hay ride, petting zoo, playground, and we brought home some yummy honeycrisp apples!

We could not get them out of the petting zoo, especially Marley...

And some more fun pics from the day...

We also got to visit with some of our best friends from college. The Thomas family was in town and came to spend the night with us. I so wish they lived close...I miss Courtney so much and our kids have a ball together!

Then, we headed to Nashville for the Georgia-Vanderbilt game with the Stead family! It was such a fun game...the kids did great and made it until half-time! Our hotel was literally next to the stadium, so Carrie and I took the kids back while Adam and Wes stayed for the rest of the game. I think this road trip may become a tradition!

We also went to Kinsey Family Farms to pick out our pumpkins, and the Sulka family was there too...yay! Marley was definitely dressed for the occasion in her orange and Colt loved feeding the fish with dad!

October is also fun for staying at home and climbing in trees!

And so the month ends with Halloween, and we had quite a cute cheerleader and football! We had our annual get together with the Hardy family the Saturday before Halloween.

Then, went trick-or-treating with the Holcomb family!

I am reminded again after writing this blog how blessed we are to have such wonderful friends and family in our lives!
