Halloween

November 4, 2024

We had a fantastic Halloween! The weather was perfect, even if a little warm. All the kids went different directions with their friends but I did manage to still get a porch pic of all three together which was all I wanted!

Samantha was a “Boss Girl” with 3 of her friends. I’m not real sure what they were supposed to be but I do know they sure were cute!

Of course Samantha’s favorite part of the costume was the fake fingernails I let her get!

Spencer was a grandpa along with Henry and he made me laugh so hard in that wig!

Maxwell was Shedeur Sanders along with a huge group of his friends. He headed over to Crestline for the parade and I didn’t see him until I picked him up at 9:30! I did manage to still get lots of pics though. Hooray!

Samantha stayed around our neighborhood bopping from house to house with her friends collecting lots of candy!

Spencer stuck around our neighborhood and Colonial Hills.

Robert and I weren’t quite sure what to do with ourselves with no kids hanging onto us but we managed to make it juuuust fine!

Nailed this photo. ha!

Overall it was a great night – everyone stayed out of trouble and followed the rules and got LOTS of candy!

Happy Halloween!!

4th of July

July 8, 2024

So much to catch up on – Maxwell’s 3 weeks at Falling Creek, Spencer’s 2 weeks at McCallie – but today we’ve got some festive pics from Independence Day! This was our first 4th of July in Birmingham since 2019! We definitely missed fireworks at GJ’s but it was fun to have a pool day and hang out with friends!

That night after grilling some burgers at our house, we went over to watch the Vulcan fireworks with some friends. They were neat but, as Daddo said, once you’ve seen the fireworks at Disney World, everything else pales in comparison!

Easter

April 2, 2024

We had a wonderful Easter day with the most gorgeous spring weather! Saturday, Samantha and Violet had some fun dyeing eggs…

and the bunny did come Easter morning! Though he wrapped everything up so the kids couldn’t open it all and check it out until after lunch.

That was for the best because we had an early morning getting out the door to church.

Both boys served as acolytes at the 9am service and did an excellent job.

We were happy to see lots of buddies at church…
