Snow Day Augusta!

Snow Day Augusta!

10 Years in the making, but we finally got a snow day.  Gabby was thrilled! Check out these pictures.  Gabby kept wanting to eat the snowman’s nose.  We didn’t have any coal so we had to paint some rocks.  Soon the snow melted and we were left with only memories and these pictures.  It was a blast.  Throwing snowballs at each other, rolling a huge ball of snow around the house to build the snowman, … Read entire article »

Gabby… My Valentine

Gabby… My Valentine

Gabby is the sweetest, most loving little girl I have ever known.  This picture says it all, huh? Contrary to popular belief, Valentine’s Day is actually a Christian holiday.  It’s debated hotly in many circles.

You can say what you want … Read entire article »

Burrito Bandit

This was my profile picture on Facebook.  If there was ever a photo that had so much going on that it didn’t need explaining, it’s this one.  BUT… I have been asked a thousand times, “What’s going on in your picture?” Here’s the skinny: We were Tailgating at the UGA Homecoming in October of 2008.

Tonka Trucks Are Catching My Eye

Walking through Target the other day something strange happened.  I passed the boys toy isle as usual and was stopped dead in my tracks.  Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed something I hadn’t seen since I was 10. There was something about moving all that dirt around in the backyard.  It hit me… hard.  I am about to be able to play with toys again.  Evan will be destroying my backyard like I … Read entire article »
