A Dance, A Flip, and A Chase

This is Kaylee in a dance contest at Granddaddy's country club fall festival. She was breakin' it down so well (or could have been the fact that she is so cute) she made it to the finals. Her daddy was so proud!! You go girl!!

Connor preferred to jump and flip rather than dance like his sister.

Andy also took part in a little physical activity earlier in the day. He decided it would be fun to try and catch this chicken or maybe more like run around like a chicken with his head cut off!

Pumpkin Patch

What fun we all had at the pumpkin patch last weekend. We went with our mentor group from Sunday school. The kids had a blast going on the hayride, the cow train, feeding goats, watching pig races and more.

Look at all our little pumpkins!
Oh to know what those girls are talking about!

Buddies!

Halloween Party



We had a halloween party with several friends at our house last week. The kids were all adorable wearing their costumes and enjoying some halloween treats.



Their Artistic Side?

His teacher spraying on the green!!
Connor had a tailgate party for homecoming at his school and he joined in the fun and had his hair painted green.
Kaylee started her first year of choir and is loving it. This is just a fun song she learned. She decided one night to sing it at the top of her lungs while dancing around. This is the Kaylee only a few ever see (she is not always the shy, quiet princess).

All I Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth

The 1st tooth gone - He said he looked like a pirate
Second gone - the vampire
Connor has had not one but two visits from the tooth fairy this week! Mommy pulled the first one out that was loosened even more after bumping into Daddy's arm, and Connor pulled the second out a week later at Moe's.



Take Me Out to the Ballgame


Connor is really enjoying playing baseball this fall. Andy is helping coach the team and it has been a good way for them to spend some time together too. Connor plays 1st base and loves trying to tag the runners.

Fall Fun

My favorite time of year has begun - FALL!! We have been to a couple of festivals already, enjoyed the cooler afternoons, and football.

Walking in like a big girl!

Our baby girl experienced another milestone today. She started her 1st year of preschool. We went for an hour yesterday to meet her teacher and have a mini day together at school. One of her teachers, Mrs. Sarah, made the cutest snack - mini hamburgers and fries. Since Kaylee doesn't like hamburgers she did not want to eat it until she realized it was made of cookies and icing. Mommy took special note of this snack idea!! Today we drove through the carpool line and she did great going into school. She told me at the end of the day that she did not cry or whine! She had lots of fun!

Kaylee's 3rd Birthday

Oh, our baby girl turned 3! Kaylee is so special to our family. She truly is our little princess. She can give the funniest looks, laugh hysterically like her brother, and be so sweet you want to eat her up!
Sweet baby Kaylee

Our 1st Grader


Connor is now a big 1st grader. He really enjoyed his 1st day of 1st grade. I love the fact that even though he is getting bigger, he still takes time to play picnic with his little sister and even make lunch for her doll, Flossie!

From Stone Mountain to Cleveland, GA

This past weekend we went to the Laser Show at Stone Mountain and then the boys camped out in Andy's sister's backyard. Then, the next morning we drove to Cleveland to enjoy a day at Mountain Lakes.
