Failed attempt for a sweet family picture!! I always like these better anyway!!!

Hayride into the pasture to see the cows in Daddy's truck!!

Ummm.... chocolate fountain!!!

Gotta have a cow cake!!!

Little family birthday cupcake!!!

Kick your feet up, Max... it's your birthday pizza dinner!!!



What do u want for your birthday, Max.... Play In The Mud!!!!

I can't believe that our last little baby boy is 2!!! The stomping of his feet running through the house, his sweet kisses and hugs that he loves to give away, his love for cows, and so much more.. just melts us to the core!!!

Oh.. there is a very special day in October... Max's birthday!!!

and coats!!

Time to pull out all the cold weather clothes...

Country dinner... pintos, collards, ham, and skillet cornbread... woo-hoo!!!

I woke up from Sunday nap and found this note on the table!!! My big country boy!


Fall is here... and it is wonderful!!!

COUNTRY LIVING!!! Our neighbors love to grow food in their garden and give it away to us... so we accept!!!

We got to have a fun day celebrating and raising money for sweet Mallory Mc. It was cold and rainy, but nobody's sweet hearts seemed to be dampened!!!

4 precious brothers curled up watching a movie!

Thumbs up from the men!!!

So, being the only gal in the house... I don't cook many pretty, girly meals... but this night was different. I wanted a yummy SALAD with grilled chicken, strawberries, blueberries, almond slivers, and girly dressing... HOW'D THEY LIKE IT!!!???

Max has lost it with this crew!!!

Time to get clean!!!


Yes... that's their faces in the water!!!


When it rains... these boys don't want to curl up with hot chocolate... they want to get in it!!! No lightning... GO FOR IT!!!

Happy Baptism Cake!!


Colby was baptised!!!! Grammoo and Grouch & Pop and Lali all came over to celebrate the day with us! Colby let us know that..."I've known Jesus my whole life and I've known that I don't want to die without Him cuz I don't want to go to hell... now I know that I can't LIVE without Him." That's right buddy...


The Dukes' (minus Jason... he was at a conference in Atlanta) came to stay a week with us. Jen and the 4 kiddos piled into our home... and we had a blast!!! We took most of our pics on Jen's camera, but I had these two! I got to show Jen our new life here in Rome! She took my aerobics class (and did GREAT!), we went to all the parks, saw camels at the fair, went out for an Ali and Jen nite, and so much more... We jokingly called ourselves... "Sam, Ali, & Jen Plus Eight!"

He was catcher the entire season... we bought our first CUP. Now that's little boy world. You should've seen me after the first game washing his uniform... I didn't know how to clean it... washing machine in the undies?? Take it out and put it in the dishwasher?? Hand wash???

Jackson played Fall Baseball with his best friend Cade!

OHHH October is FULL of fun...
