Thanksgiving

We have so much to be thankful for! A beautiful, healthy, happy daughter, eachother, our family and friends and so many other gifts God has blessed us with. Thanksgiving is always one of my favorite Holidays! I love getting together with my family and laughing and making new memories. I'm thankful every year that my Gramps is healthy and able to be with us and spend time with his great granddaughter. Not many little girls get to know their great grandfather's. I love this time of year and everything it stands for!

look what the Thanksgiving Turkey brought me!

Meeting Baby Beeps

One of my very best friends had her first baby, and I couldn't wait to get to Birmingham to meet him. Carter Blake Whitson was born on November 11, 2011. He is absolutely adorable!! Millie Kate calls him Baby Beeps. She kept wanting to hold him and hug him. She also wanted to sit in all of his swings and bouncy seats. I'm a little sad that they don't live closer to us, but I hope Blake knows how much we love him and look forward to watching him grow!





happy Mama

Halloween!!

As always, Halloween was a very fun day! That morning we went to Baby Madeline Macdonald's Baptism and then Halloween night, Trick or Treating with our best friends, The Greleckis. Ryan dressed up as Pooh's bestest friend, Christopher Robin, and Parker and Chase were Tigger and Eeyore!! It took a couple of houses for the kids to get the hang of trick or treating, but once they got it, they didn't want to stop. Stephanie and I use to trick or treat in Yawn's neightborhood when we were little so it brought back a lot of memories and it was so special that now we have our own kids that get to trick or treat together!

Trunk or Treat

Trunk or Treat was so much fun this year! Millie Kate was the most adorable Piglet ever! And Brian was a pretty cute Winnie the Pooh! He went all out on his costume and made his own Pooh ears, honey pot complete with Bits O'Honey, and a tree from the Hundred Acre Wood. We came in Third Place for our trunk!

Halloweekend

Halloween weekend was a very fun and busy weekend. Friday night we went to the Benich/Reuter clan to the Chattahoochee Nature Center for their Halloween Hikes. It is a spooky trail where you get to meet different animals and they tell you about their habitat. Saturday we had Trun or Treat at church and then that night Brian and I went to a Halloween party at the Greleckis. I love Halloween and it was such a fun and festive weekend!
