Holiday Week in Review

Leslie is starting early knowing the importance of always having your phone with you.
She looked so peaceful in this picture, I just had to share it.

On Wednesday, Bobby and I went on a date to the Bob the Builder exhibit at the Atlanta Children's Museum. We went with Bobby's cousin Drew and his mommy Christy and David and his mommy Andrea. The boys had a blast and the moms enjoyed the adult time together too.


On Thursday, Turkey Day, we went to my parent's house for a family lunch. Liz and Spencer planning their shopping for Friday.

My sweet family watching the parade together on TV.
Bobby loves Curious George, so this year we had monkey cupcakes for his birthday.
Cousin Drew eating his cupcake. After cake and presents, the birthday boy watched football with Uncle David and Emily. It was a great day.


Leslie loves tummy time and is very close to rolling over.

In other news my brother and his family now have a blog. Bleeding Red and Black. Check it out. My dad has also been blogging for awhile. His blog is for his deacon formation class. Check it out for some great articles and other stuff about the Catholic faith. Men of Ten

Early Birthday Present

Daddy is helping Bobby open an early birthday present from granpop. He thinks the tunnel for his train set is something else. Kids are so funny. Thanks Grandpop for the awesome present.

A New Blogger

Check out the new blogs added to my links. The Sims Family blog is written by my brother's sister-in-law ( Did you follow the connection?) Cindy. They just had a little boy. Carson is so cute. Go check out the pictures. The Sims Family



The other blog I have been reading for months. I just realized today that the author of the blog (KATY) is a good friend from college. We had lost touch. We went to VSU. She also just had a little girl. Go check out her cuties too. Derrick George of the Jungle with his Lady Leah

Leaf Pile

On Thursday Daddy made a huge pile of leaves for Bobby to play in. He was having so much fun that our neighbor Maggie joined him. This is one of the best things about being a kid in the fall.

The Mountains and Halloween

We were very lucky to be invited to the Goodrow Mountain retreat for a long weekend. It is a beautiful place. The whole family had an amazing time with our friends. Check out the Royal Family blog for more pictures from our weekend.

Thanks Susie and David for opening your home to us and helping with the babies.
Susie is holding Wesley and David is holding Leslie. She fell in love with David and smiled at him all weekend.

Julie and I enjoying the spectacluar day we spent by the fire. Check out the trees in the background. We picked the best weekend to see the leaves.

As you can imagine it is hard to get a great picture with all the kids. Here is my best picture. From left to right it is Ethan, Elena, Wesley, David, Leslie, and Bobby. We should have taken a picture of the moms and dads of all of these kids.

The family spent Halloween night with our friends at Goodrow Gang home. Bobby was Curious George. (He would not put the hat part of the costume on his head. He wore it around his neck.) He is sitting on the couch with Lana,the pirate, and David and Will-the cowboys.

Papa borrowed Susie's clown suit for this picture with his grand kids. Boy does he look silly. Thanks GeGe for Leslie's jack-o-lantern sleeper. For more Halloween pictures go the the Goodrow Gang blog.
In other news, I have returned to work as a first grade teacher at Lilburn Elementary. Bobby liked having his sister with him at the babysitter. I will try to update the blog each weekend with the goings on of the family.
