Capturing our adventures one photo at a time...
My little angels all dressed up in their Sunday best!
Please note the pink and turquoise unicorn necklace she just had to wear! Also, to be clear, Maxwell and Spencer are not lovingly holding hands but rather fighting and wrestling through the photo! At least it’s never dull around here!
Today’s the day! The birthday of the greatest, the grandest, the very best around – GJ!!!
We wish we were having cake with you tonight but we’ll celebrate in person soon!
We love you!! Happy birthday!!
School is off to a great start for all 3! Some pics from the year so far…
On the first day!
The note he left for me on Open House night…
and his cute class!
Maxwell is learning cursive and pretty sure his handwriting is neater than mine!
and I love this pic he drew of himself reading at camp!
Of course Samantha is living it up at school every day! Her teacher sends us pics of the week so I’ve got lots of cute ones of her class!
Also, because it made me laugh pretty hard – please compare the self portrait (plus dinosaur!) that Spencer drew on his first day of 4K compared to the one Samantha drew on her first day of 4K! ha!
I’ve had the boys giving her drawing lessons since!! 🙂
Here’s to another great week of school!
In lieu of a birthday party this year, Maxwell asked to take a few friends to a Bama game. With huge thanks to Uncle Ronnie, not only did he get to take a few friends but we all got to go and got to sit in a box! Considering it was approximately 250 degrees that day, we were all incredibly thankful to be in that air conditioned box! Spencer got to take a friend too so there were 9 of us total – enough to rent a van!
Our crew was outfitted in their Crimson and White and ready for a fun day!
The actual temp on our drive down. Insane.
It was a hot walk to our seats!
But the walk was sure worth it because our seats were awesome!
Alabama was playing New Mexico State and ended up beating them 62 to 10. Not much of a game to watch but that didn’t bother this crew one bit! They had plenty of fun making mischief around the box and watching the game occasionally but mostly drinking Cokes and eating ice cream!
It was really a fun fun day all around!
Most importantly, this birthday boy had a fantastic day with his buddies and family! I’d say that’s a happy 9th birthday celebration indeed!
Roll Tide Roll!
Over Labor Day weekend we drove up to LaGrange, GA and had a fun filled 24 hours at Great Wolf Lodge! I wasn’t sure what to expect – and it wasn’t really what I was expecting – but the kids loved it and had a super fun time so that’s all that counts! We did it all but I think the ropes course was definitely the favorite part for the boys. It was really high and awesome! they each did it twice – but couldn’t ever do it at the same time because we only had one pair of closed toe shoes. Thank goodness Spencer wore Natives and Maxwell could squeeze his feet into them!
We got there Sunday afternoon and Maxwell immediately wanted to do the ropes course – even though they sent him to the very high one first he powered through and did great!
We then hit up the water park for a few hours.
That evening Spencer and Robert did the ropes course and we also bowled, played mini golf, and ate really healthy foods! ha!
On Monday morning we all decided we didn’t need to do the water park again but both boys definitely wanted another turn on the ropes course.
While they did that, Samantha mined for gems…
and we all spent too much money in the awesome arcade!
Overall a really fun 24 hours!
