Capturing our adventures one photo at a time...
Is his bottom front tooth!!
When I saw Maxwell after school last Monday, he gave me a big ole grin and that tooth was gone! I knew it was loose but I didn’t think it was that loose!! He said he was eating his lunch and could feel it moving more so he went to the bathroom, gave it a few good wiggles, and then pulled it out all by himself! whoa!!!
I’m excited for him and thankful I didn’t have to pull it!! The tooth fairy came that night and generously left $5! Must be a “first tooth special”! 😉
We got some sad news yesterday that Granddaddy passed away. He was 93 and lived a long, happy, and golf-filled life. I’m so grateful for all the years I had with him and even more grateful that all of my kids got to meet him. I can’t wait to celebrate his life with the rest of the family this week.
We traveled to Arkansas to see him just this past summer…
Through the years I’ve gotten lots of good pictures of the three Maxwells!!
Christmas 2016 when he got to meet Samantha for the first time…
2010…
Granddaddy, Daddo and John….
With baby Delaney…
Many years ago with Grandmother too…
Christmas was always a special time with my grandparents. When we were little they would come to town and take me and my brother and to eat at Franke’s and sit on Santa’s lap at the mall! Seems fitting that my brother and parents got to eat at Franke’s with Granddaddy just last week.
We sure will miss him – and his Christmas socks! – this year…
We love you, Granddaddy.
Happy Friday!
and Roll Tide!
God the Father, God the Father,
We thank you, We thank you,
For our MANY blessings, For our MANY blessings.
Amen, Amen.
Happy Thanksgiving!!
Last week I got to go up to school and have a Thanksgiving lunch feast with Maxwell! I love seeing him with his friends…
and there’s nothing better than some turkey and dressing out of a styrofoam container! Actually, there are lots of things better but I ate it anyway! 🙂 Maxwell clearly also thought there were lots of things better than taking a picture with ole momma!!
So thankful for that kid. Looks like he’s thankful for me too! 🙂
Spencer got to dress up like an Indian and have a Thanksgiving Feast at school too – complete with chicken nuggets! 🙂 Meet Chief Red Lion….
Maxwell was Chief Orange Coywolf back in his day!
Spencer also brought home some awesome Thanksgiving art projects!
Samantha made some pretty awesome hand turkeys too!
Gobble Gobble!
