Snow, Here We Come!!

The kids snowsuits came in the mail today....


they're a little large. :) Maybe they'll grow before we go on our ski trip.

Pictures!!!

We had the kids pictures done yesterday and OMG they are so awesome! It was such a pleasant experience. If you live in Pensacola or ever come to Pensacola...Deanie Sexton Photography!!! She's a mom that really knows how to capture your little one's personality AND she only uses natural light AND she gives you the disc of pictures (after she edits and does all sorts of fun stuff) to do as you please! She's great...if you can't tell, I was VERY pleased. Here are just a few favorites...there are so many. :)

Let Me Take A Minute....

I just want to take a minute to brag on my Turner. Mrs. Ciccone scheduled conferences with all the parents and we had ours this morning. She couldn't stress enough how much she adores Turner. She even said that she told her husband if they ever have a little boy she wants him to be just like T. She said she loves that T is all boy but very, very sweet. She never has to ask him to do anything twice and he always say yes ma'am and no ma'am (we were happy that she makes her students say ma'am...not everyone does that anymore). She also said he is very sweet to the other little boys and girls. She thinks his personality is just wonderful!

As far as school goes Turner is above and beyond. He knows everything he supposed to and lots, lots more. I must say that Chad and I are very proud. We've always known that he's a special boy...we're so happy that others know it too.

What a blessing to be his mommy! Thank you God for Turner.

T Finally Learned...

After weeks of trying, T-Dawg learned to tie his shoe. He stayed in his room Saturday morning for a good 30 minutes practicing and he finally did it. He was SO proud! I remember learning to tie my shoe (on my Punky Brewster hi-tops...coolest shoes I've ever owned) and how excited I felt when I finally did it. Yay for Turner! I wonder what he's going to learn next?


Also, how cute is Anna Cate in her Auburn cheerleader outfit??

Two Things

I love this picture of Anna Cate. She was so interested in Mr. Josh cutting the grass...eventually we ended up sitting on the back porch until he finished. Anna Cate really, really adores Josh!














Next we have my hilarious husband. He was being silly last night and trimmed his facial hair into a Fu Manchu. Really it's just a Fu Chu because there's nothing very MANLY about it (sorry honey)...notice how the mustached part doesn't really connect to the Chu part :). Anyway, I dared him to go to work this way and he did. I'm pretty sure Doneen is going to point and laugh! I LOVE how goofy my husband is...we never stop laughing.

A Wonderful Weekend...Mostly

We did have a good weekend...nothing too exciting.

Friday night we ate an early dinner and then went to run a few errands...Target, Home Depot, Food World etc.

Saturday, we were excited to watch the Auburn game, only we couldn't find it on t.v.!!! Aaaaaaahhhhh!!! We were mad, to the point were Chad called Cox cable. They verified that the game wasn't on and I'm pretty sure Chad told them exactly what he thought about that. I mean... come on...what are they trying to do to us?? Since we couldn't watch the game, AC and I went shopping. We had fun! AC is a good shopping partner. The boys stayed home and watched random football.

I attempted taking pictures of the kids in their Auburn gear...AC is no longer very cooperative when it come to taking pictures!

Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Saturday night we went over to our friend's, Heather and Joe. We had a small Sunday School get-together in honor of our friend Brian. He will be leaving for Kuwait this week...for a full year...leaving behind his wife, Lori and their 2 children, Adam and Julia (Ju-Ju is T's girlfriend!) Each of them will be in our daily prayers...we love that family!

What a fun night! T and AC got to spend time with their friends and so did we. We have such a fun Sunday School class. I am SO thankful that God gave us this church family...it's an answered prayer!

Also...we found out the game WAS on t.v.! IDIOTS! Cox didn't know what they were talking about and we're idiots for not looking harder...Boo!

I started not feeling so great Saturday night. I felt like I was getting a cold...and I was! I didn't sleep at all that night due to fever...yuck. We didn't go to church Sunday and I stayed in bed all day. I felt terrible. Thank you Honey for taking care of the kids all day!

Here are some funny pictures of AC. Apparently she was having a hard time getting to the Fruit Loops...

New Giveaway!!

Lottie's Loop is my favorite shop on Etsy and she's having a giveaway on her blog, Life with the Lyngs.

These clippies are adorable!!! I've ordered several things from her shop and have been very pleased.
