Capturing our adventures one photo at a time...
Lots of OOTDs to catch up on!
Other school stuff – Samantha got chosen to be a squire!
and yesterday I had her 9 weeks teacher conference. I got a GLOWING report! She’s an enthusiastic learner, very neat and organized, participates in class, and is liked by all. Her teacher even said “She’s like the perfect student!” WOW! Music to this proud momma’s ears! Love my 5th grader!!
Make it a great weekend!
Spencer had even more Bama fun last week when he got to go see the basketball team play at Boutwell!
Roll Tide!
While the boys were enjoying the game in Tuscaloosa, us girls were enjoying it with friends!!
Love it when everyone’s happy!
Robert went all out and got awesome tickets for the Bama TN game on Spencer’s birthday. No better place to celebrate 13 than in T-town cheering on the Tide! Before they left we had a birthday lunch and opened presents…
The boys then headed to Tuscaloosa with some friends that had gotten a driver – which was super nice because it was a night game and a very late return!
They got there way before kickoff so had lots of time to pre-game. I’m really glad Maxwell was there to force this birthday picture!!
They also made it to the President’s mansion…
and generally lived it up on campus…
even getting a ride and police escort to the stadium…
Thankfully the actual game lived up to the pre-game!! Amazing seats, a pick six, and a big Bama win!
Spencer said it was his favorite live sporting event he’s ever been to! Now THAT is a good 13th birthday! Roll Tide!
We had a great weekend celebrating our new teenager! He had a little party on Friday night…a few friends came over to watch football, eat wings, and play on the new ping pong table! GJ and I had been working hard the past few weeks to get her backhouse all set up and now it’s a really cool hang out area for the kids!
Spencer had quite a crew…
and they ate plenty of Waldo’s wings…
and Spencer made a wish on some brownies!
It was a really fun night…and we only had one minor run-in with the police. Wish I was kidding but, nope!
The boys were playing hide and seek in front of the school. The cop saw them all running around with flashlights and thought maybe someone was up to no good so he stopped them. Once I went outside and the cop saw they were not doing anything wrong and had adult supervision all was fine. But, it sure made for some excitement and a good story!!
Happy birthday Spencey!
