Halloween Spooks





Catching Up...

What a slacker I am!  We had the funnest summer, and I think I took about a million pictures.  Only problem was, I was completely overwhelmed with them all as far as my blog was concerned!  But it's about time to catch up...

  

We had a great trip to Alabama this summer.  First stop -- the beach! 

 Next stop -- the lake house for a Giles Family Reunion. 

All the cousins were there, as well as a few fun water toys.  As you can tell, we had a blast!

 This paddleboard was so fun!

Johnny tells the best stories ever.

            

 We love Muddie!

Last stop, remembering good friends.

 Thanks for welcoming us back, Madison!

Summertime Visitors

We loved our constant stream of visitors this summer.  First we had Grandma Dee and Papa come.

 Next, Betsy and her cute family.

 And then Judy and Cougar.  Thanks, all for coming to see us!  Anyone else is welcome, too!

Summer Swim

 This little crazy man was absolutely fearless this summer.  We had a blast with our new pool.

 Lindsey loved swim team this summer.  Tyler and Benjamin did a great job on swim and dive team as well.

Birthdays

 Happy #4!

 Happy #11!

 Happy 40th!  Yikes!

1st Day of School

Ahh, the day moms love and kids dread...

OK, not all kids dread school -- my little Lindsey loves everything about it.  Look how happy she is!



 

          Tyler managed a smile that day!



And this cute little buddy started preschool!

Utah, Day 1 -- Family Fun, Cool Cars

Last month we took a family vacation to Utah. Stayed with Grandma, had tons of fun, enjoyed Stacey's family reunion, and took tons of pictures! Sorry about the tons of photos -- but there were so many fun memories!

We love Grandma's bug!

Julie looks pretty good in her new car, too!
We love Aunt Julie!
And Uncle Bill, too!
Visited Grandpa, too.

The cemetary was still beautiful with all the Memorial Day flowers out.
