Christmas Tractors!!!

Well, it was obvious that the tractors made the biggest impression on the boys Christmas morning. They have had a blast riding them and getting them stuck everywhere. I will be glad when they master the art of steering!!

Decorationg the tree!

We had so much fun decorating the tree this year. Our two little helpers were fantastic and believe it or not we made it through without breaking one ornament!!! I can tell this Christmas will be so memorable!

Random Post

Well, I haven't posted anything in forever so I thought I would add some random pictures and say hello. We had an awesome Thanksgiving up in Hernando and cannot wait for Christmas!

Graves and McNeil are doing great and talking up a storm. We are so blessed!

I wish everyone a wonderful holiday and as always remember to focus on the reason for the season!!

Halloween 2008

Well, Graves & McNeil were the cutest Batman and Robin that I have ever seen! Of course, my perspective is not exactly unbiased, but they really did look cute!

Graves loved the trick or treating and would have gone to every house on the block if we had let him! McNeil was a little more reserved but definitely got his fair share of candy. It was a really fun night! Thanks to Mag & Richie for having us over!!

Baby Shower (don't worry, not for me)!!

We had a great shower for my sweet friend and coworker Lauren Caraway Saturday night. Lauren and baby Carson received some fantastic things and we are more excited than ever about this precious little one's arrival!

Pumkin Patch!

What a fun morning we had at the pumkin patch!!! The boys, Hines Wellhausen, and Foster Meacham had a blast on the hayride and got to take a pumpkin home too! Thanks Melissa for the great idea and maybe next year they will have the sunflowers!!!

The Fair!!

It amazes me every year the excitement that comes with the beginning of the MS State Fair. I am not sure what the allure is but I sure do look forward to it every year.

The boys just stared in awe at all the people, games, rides, and food. As you can see we enjoyed our share of fair food and the petting zoo was definitely a hit. What a great night!

Oxford Fun!!

Had a blast this weekend in Oxford! As you can see from the pictures Graves is looking forward to getting out on the football field some day! By the way, those choo choo trains you see in McNeil's hands go with us EVERYWHERE! He is obsessed. They really are little boys now!

Fun Days at the Park!

Happy Birthday Graves & McNeil!!

What a great weekend we have had celebrating the two most precious gifts Neil and I have received!! Cannot believe they are two!! I love this age! I mean there are definitely tantrums present in our house, but overall this age is so much fun. Although there are parts of these past two years that are a blurr (for example, the first 4 or 5 months mostly due to sleep deprivation), they have produced more smiles and laughs than Neil and I could ever have imagined. It is so easy to get caught up in your daily routine that you can miss the best moments. That is one reason I wanted to do this blog is to be able to look back on all the simple, little moments that I will cherish the rest of my life!!

Anyway, just want to say thank you to Graves & McNeil who have given us the best two years of our lives and thank you to God for these two little magnificent blessings!!

On a less sappy note, thanks to everyone who came to the party!! We had a blast!!
