To all our fans.....

Ha...just kidding! I realized I have not posed in a while and since this will be what our kids google when they get older, I better get posting. I do wish I was a better picture taker and scrapbooking mom. But is scrapbooking really the thing to do now since everything is on the computer? All I know is, my kids are growing up way to fast and I just want to remember their childhood. I also want them to be able to look back at pictures....I mean I guess their blog.

Here are the two on their new horses. Got them at a toy consignment sale. For those of yall that now me, I love a consignment sale ( toys or clothes). I went looking for a kitchen and came home with these. But I mean look how cute they are! ( please try to block out all the stuff in the back)
Thomas named them pinky and podie. This is a step up from the stick horses they have. Thomas enjoys riding his stick horse down the street...in his underwear.
We went camping at Jellystone last weekend(-minus Caroline). We had fun. I think the people next to us were glad we only stayed 1 night. Thomas gets up pretty early. Of course I didn't take my camera, but Chrissie did so I can get some pictures from her.


John the builder finished the deck a few weeks ago...here is it. He did a great job.

J...O...B...

Turn your head sideways if you want to look at this picture.
John is employed..:)
Look at the cute other Doc. we got in the house. He has been dressing up (complete with black dress socks in the mornings).
Caroline has realized we have a dog in the backyard and reminds us all the time by saying..."ohhh dawg...ruuf ruuf". She also enjoys sitting on her brother.

July already

Our neighborhood has a 4th of July Parade. This year it included the Fire Truck, Sheriff car, bike riders, 4 wheel riders, our float, a boat, and a few more floats...so it is very unique :). The kids had a great time and that is what matters. Caroline ate suckers the whole time( 2 in each hand at all times). Thomas would unwrap a sucker, take a few licks, and then throw it to people!.

































































This is July 2008.....Caroline sure has changed!













Thomas 2008

Our week in review.....

Caroline turned 13 months last weekend. We went to Hburg to celebrate father's day with my family. Caroline posing on the lounge chair. This girl is a mess. She eats constantly, climbs on anything, and loves to wrestle with her brother. Her newest trick this week is to climb on Thomas and sit on his head. She also loves climbing up on his bed, holding on to the headboard, looking back to see if you are watching, and then falling down.She loves life...and other people's food!
































We had a great week last week at VBS. I helped with 2nd graders going into 3rd. I was amazed at their knowledge at such a young age. Thomas and C went. Thomas had a great time in the Worship center. He couldn't wait to go every morning. Caroline had fun eating the other kid's snacks/lunch!







And finally......
We are happy to announce that after 7 years of marriage, ( 25 total years of school) my hubby finally has a job. Here is Sha and I with the proof of the newest certificate suitable for framing. We all realized that Sha is pregnant again. She was pregnant with Graham when they graduated medical school and know...baby Ella. We meet I guess 7 years ago when our hubbies planned a trip to the beach. We were going to tent camp(since we had no money) and the boys were going to leave us to play golf. We both told our husbands..."I don't know this girl..Am I going to like her"? Well, I think it worked out ok.Here we are 7 years later.

So J and T are having man night. They went to see the Movie UP!. C and I had girls night. We went to Hancock's to get some thread and then she went to bed at 7:15...so her I am blogging. Miss Caroline walking and eating her cookie at the same time....talent. She is walking more, but still loves he moma's hip!

















Thomas at show and tell swim lessons. We love Ms Alicia and Ms. Kerri..












Sorry for the little girl's boo-hiney in this pic.she can climb out of the pool all by herself and that is super important.i kind of thought it was funny!












Here are some more pics from out tball games. Our team has gotten so much better. Or maybe we have just played teams that were 3 and 4 instead of 5!












Thomas, Pop, and Nash. Nash thought Pop was his Granddaddy. He was so cute...he just ran up to Pop and hugged his leg....Nash is one of Caroline's approved dates when she gets to be 30...we know his parents!















2 of the 3 cheer leaders. MB was gone to the beach.


















John had to work all last weekend, so my mom came through and we went to see my brother, Chad in Oxford. He just bought a new house...yikes with 2 kids, but we managed to get out of there without breaking anything. T and C were helping him with some yard work. So that is what we have been up to. Learning to swim and learning to play tball. Thomas has the hitting and running down...we are still working on fielding ground balls. Next week we have VBS which should be lots of fun, for all of us


Funny story...John was holding Thomas walking him down for swimming lessons and he tooted. John said what was that. Thomas said my boo-hiney was talking....

Happy Birthday..May 10, 2006












I just realized I forgot to post Thomas's real birthday....how terrible of me. We only celebrated his birthday 4 times...so his real day kind of got overlooked. J had to work and I think we went to Hburg for mother's day. So here is your belated birthday post big T. You have blessed us in a big way with your 3 yrs. You are so funny, extra sweet, and you love your family....especially Caroline. I love hearing you call her all her names "Linnie, Wild Women, Sweetie, Smiley". I guess you are a good listener after all. Your favorites are...anything Disney, movies, books, stories, and playing outside. You got tools this year for your birthday. We had a fun birthday for you and Caroline at the splash pad. I have pictures to prove it, but not on my camera. I am really going to try to do better. You love telling us how big you are and how much you have grown everytime you wake up from sleeping. You are our ealybird...6:30 is sleeping late. We lover you very much and pray God's favor and blessing on you..

Beach

At the gulfarium. Thomas and John are making the same face...could they be anymore alike?












Caroline showing off her beach body. She loved the sand. She has even started walking....but she always prefers my hip!

Just got back from the beach. We had a great time and had help from the grandparents. We split the week up with both sets, so they both could enjoy. We stayed at my new favorite place. Waterscape in Ft. Walton Beach. It is perfect for kids. It has a playground, splash pad area, 2 pools (1 with zero entry) and a lazy river...and it is on the beach. Here are some pics.












How funny is this...they are all making the same face. This was at the gulfarium..sea lion show.
