Lately

I know I haven't been very good about blogging lately. Just blame it on being pregnant and lazy. These last picture were taken two weekends ago at the UGA/BAMA game in Athens. Not a great game, mind you, but we had a good time tailgating. Matt and I will be busy in the next few months transitioning Annely Blake into Will's room. We're adding twin beds, a new bookcase, and painting and sprucing it up, hoping they will share nicely the space that has been all Will's for the past year and a half. Here's to hoping for a smooth transition :)

Anyways... pics from the game:
Uncle James in the red pants- Annely Blake's favorite person in the whole wide world-

Me with the kiddos-

Will was in some kind of mood that day-

and lastly, the cutest 17 month old I know :)

What do we do...

when Will's in school, you might ask?

Well, today we played outside.... (with my $6 attic sale find!) did mountains and mountains of laundry...

AB got stuck and spent ten minutes trying to figure out how to get down....

she finally whined enough and I helped her out....

Other things accomplished on the to do list:

-sorting through AB's summer clothes and boxing some of them up

-getting fall clothes out and in the drawer

-working on Beth Moore homework

On the menu tonight: corn and potato chowder to celebrate the cool, breezy weather!

Next up: packing and getting ready to head to Athens for the weekend for the UGA/Bama game! Go Dawgs!!!!!

Attic Sale

If anyone is wondering where I am, it's Attic Sale time again. Come on down and visit me and purchase some good deals! I'm in the Men's Department again (otherwise known as the arm pit of attic sale), so come say Hi.

Will be blogging more next week.

Boy oh Boy!

Meet our newest little guy:

We are thankful for a perfectly healthy ultrasound report! Can't wait for him to join us in January!

Mountain Trip 08

We were able to spend a few days last week relaxing at my family's mountain cabin. The weather was fabulous! Matt did a little work with my dad around the property with the chainsaw, and caught a few fish at the pond with Will. We took many walks and saw some deer, but much to Will's disappointment, no bears. I took a bunch of pictures so I included the link if you want to view them.

My New Ride

Otherwise known as DOC (death of cool). There she is. She sure was great when we went out of town last week. Never thought I'd be so excited about a minivan.

The latest from around here....

Thanks to Fay, this is what it's been doing here since Saturday..... Had our small group over Saturday night for our annual kick-off. here are some of the kids:

and our fabulous shrimp boil dinner, courtesy of my hubby:

thought it was funny that one of my kids pulled this book off the shelf. how did they know?

and finally, a completed outfit for Annely Blake. although cute, the belly is not really supposed to show. (note to self...cut out larger size next time)

School

School started yesterday for Will. Here are a few pictures from his first day!

Lazy Summer Days

Not much to say. Just a bunch of pictures from the past week, winding down our summer. We have a lot to pack in before fall starts.

Here we go....

Hollywood Connection with the kids plus bff Luke

We're doing some updating to our house, starting with replacing the toilets. Walker came to help.

Countdown....

to school. One week and counting! Will starts pre-school on the 18th, going three days a week this year. Summer seems especially hard when school and church activities are on hold and I'm looking for something to do every day. This week we've been busy with playgroup, pool, and park. Here are some pictures from our (hot) morning at the park watching the ducks.
