Happy Birthday Grant

I feel terrible because I am so behind on my posts. Our precious Grant celebrated her 3rd birthday on November 5th. We have had such a busy few weeks that we decided to ring in her birthday with a small family party. Leslie, Joey, Carlysle, Callie, BeeGee and Papa joined us for a spaghetti dinner, per Grant's request. I made cupcakes in her favorite color, white with white icing. It was a wonderful night and when I tucked her in that night she said, "Mommy, thank you for my party." We love our angel girl so much and can't believe she's 3!!!! BeeGee took Grant to the salon for her 1st real big girl hair cut and I love it! It suits her so well. She is our sassy little ball of fire and we are so proud of her!

Cub Scout

David joined cub scouts this year and we are so proud of him! Daddy was a cub scout and boy scout and went all the way just shy of Eagle scout. We are thrilled that David is learning such wonderful life lessons and helping his community. They have done so many awesome things already and I can't wait to see what else is in store. We love our Tiger Scout!

Halloween 2010

Meet Woody, Jessie and their trusty steed...Bullseye! We had an awesome Halloween evening! We started out with a stop at Mantissa Row to see BeeGee and Papa and finished up at Emmanuel Christian for their Halloween Carnival. Aunt C tagged along and we all had a great time! We are still trying to finish off the gobs of candy they got at the trunk or treat!

Oliver's christening

We had Oliver christened in my home church in Bishopville on October 24th. It was such a perfect day! The sermon was perfect, the choir was perfect, and Oliver was perfect! He honestly looked like a little cherub. He never made a peep and just looked around while the preacher carried him around the sanctuary. Oliver was wearing a family heirloom christening gown which has been worn by 9 other babies in the family, all starting with David's Mother. We celebrated with a luncheon at our house after the service. It was a perfect day! We are so blessed and happy to share this special moment in Oliver's life with our family.

Family fun on the farm

Several weeks ago we had David's mom and siblings out for a fun day on the farm. The cousins had a blast painting picture frames and pumpkins, roasting marshmallows, eating caramel apples, building a fire in the fort, swinging on the rope swing and even taking turns driving Grandaddy's pickup truck. It was a full weekend of so many awesome activites! David even coordinated a family game of kickball. Fall is my absolute favorite time of year and weekends like this make it just perfect! We all had an amazing time and can't wait to do it again!
