Back to The Season!

IT'S HERE!!!!
Football season has arrived & we're so pumped we can barely contain ourselves!
As we excitedly prepare for our season opener against Furman tomorrow,
we had to do a few things first . . .

*We had to give our favorite coach a little back to the season surprise!

*We had to pick up Tanner's new gameday shirts!
(Shout out to Jessica Evans, who made his b'day shirt & UAB shirts last year, for a FABULOUS job!)

 

*We had to organize our gear for the game!

Now we're ready to BOWWOW with the BULLDOGS!!!
Go Bulldogs!!!

The Boys, the Girls, the Fun

My wonderful sis-n-law, Kylie, & my adorable nieces, Addie & Allie, came
to visit on Thursday!
Tim's brother started coaching at Murray State in Murray, Kentucky in the spring & their family moved there around March.
We don't get to see them nearly as much as we'd like . . . so we're always thrilled when we all get together!
They stopped through & spent the night on their way to a family get together at the beach this weekend.
We had presents, cupcakes & ice cream, excited boys, excited girls, & lots & lots & lots of running, playing, toys, & noise!!!

Addie

Allie

These 3 sure do love each other!

These 2 are definitely characters...

Does it look like they're up to something to you???

Everyone loved playing with the new babies!!

Tea Party

Uncle Tim's home!

"Hi Addie!!"

(check Allie out in the background)

"Come here, Allie . . . "

. . . & Allie makes a beeline for Timothy!

We could hear our loud children,

we just chose to ignore the noise & smile. . .

like usual. :)

Bedtime story. . . so sweet!

It was after 10:30 by this point.

NONE of the children in the house were asleep!

We love these family visits!!

What a fun time -

hanging with some of my fave friends,

playing hilarious baby games,

enjoying snacks & punch,

& showering Mary Chollet with gifts in

anticipation of her precious baby!

 

We are beyond thrilled for MC & her hubby, Camper.

What a blessing that baby will be to their lives;

what a lucky baby to have a mommy & daddy like those two,

& a grandma like Ms. Chollet!!

CONGRATS!!!
