Maddie's Birthday & Halloween Decorating!

What a handsome little devil!

Maddie is 1!!! Wow, these children are getting too big too fast.

Jaxon and I went to Maddie's birthday party, she's about 8 months younger than Jaxon and I am so glad she is now at an age where they can play and interact. Maddie came up to Jaxon a few minutes after we got there and gave Jaxon a kiss. It was SOOOO cute! I'm gonna have to steal her sometime soon to give Jaxon a little playdate. I took a few pictures while I was there, Jaxon got into a "mood" since he had not taken a nap, so we left very shortly after the presents. Thanks Elaine, Aaron and Craig for having us.

After our nap...we woke up and got the "itch" of Halloween. We started hauling all the boxes out of the attic and putting things out. Before some of you start thinking that we are a little early in putting out Halloween decorations...we were 5th in our neighborhood, so we don't feel so bad (lol). I LOVE this time of year. The decorating and warmth of the fall season is just perfect for the soul. I can tell Jaxon is going to really enjoy things this year. When we were setting things out, he would "ewwww" and "ahhhhh" like he thought it was so cool. It has been a very fufilling day...and tomorrow brings FALCONS FOOTBALL - oh this is such a great time! Toodoodlie-do!

Random

These few pictures were obviously a little random, but...he was such a cutie in them, so I couldn't resist putting them up for everyone to see.

Happy Birthday Broox!

I am so proud! We finally got everyone together to take a family shot. It took us about 10 pictures before we got one to use.

Last weekend my mom and I went to the Yellow Daisy and took a quick picture on the way out.

Today we celebrated my brother Broox's 10th Birthday, my mom had a magician come out and we grilled out hamburgers and hotdogs...in the rain. Luckily, it only sprinkled while we were grilling. I was so excited about seeing his guitar hero birthday cake. We had it done by Sweet Treets bakery, they did a good job. We did find out the hard way that BLACK ICING STAINS - EVERYTHING!! All in all, it was a good day.

More Pics from Labor Day Weekend

Stone Mountain with the Family

Labor Day Weekend

Although I had to work on Labor Day, we had a very fun packed weekend. My cousin Paul came into town kinda last minute. He's been in Iraq and living, well...everywhere since he has been in the Navy. It was really great to visit with him and his little boy Logan. I'm so glad we were able to spend some long over due family time with them and my uncle Sammy and the rest of his family. On Sunday, we climbed Stone Mountain, ALL of us! Jaxon included. He was such a trooper and wanted to do it ALL BY HIMSELF. There were a few instances that we had to just swoop him up otherwise we may have STILL been climbing the mountain...today - lol. But in reality, he only needed our help over some really big rocks and up the STEEP part of the mountain which required the hand bar. Otherwise, my 19 month old son walked the entire 3 mile hike with just us observing. I must say, I was very impressed with him. We got some cut pictures that I'll post because I know there are a lot of people who would probably like to see them. However, we are currently experiencing technical difficulties, so they will hopefully be posted soon.
