Go Panthers!


Does your computer mess with you because mine messes with me. Like I don't know why it won't let me change the font of "Go Panthers" above or why it is underlined but I'm just going with it... and making it the title of this blog entry. Sometimes it works out not to be a perfectionist...

My main point about the Panthers was that I'm glad they are winning and I think Camden looks cute wearing his gear. So here he is.


His buddy Braylon had a Panthers party and there was way too much to look at to take a nice picture...but again they are super cute.


A few other fun things going on lately...

A Kindergarten trip to the farm. I love my team and that even when we are tired (really tired) have lots of paper on our desks (LOTS) and parents waiting to conference with us, we embrace the opportunity for a good time.
 


I'm particularly thankful for that as I watch my own children enjoy school.  It makes me realize it is all SO worth it.
 

Tinley's first Kindergarten field trip and bus ride.


And Halloween in our new neighborhood was a success. We went all out since it was on a Saturday and embraced our new holiday loving neighborhood.


Big kids on Halloween...They still love the hype (and the candy). Parker was glad to have some of his buds come over before the trick or treat.


Fun snacks! I love when something is cute and actually doesn't take any real baking. We loved having people over to celebrate with us and make the day of waiting until "go time" not so long!






A bunch of kids!! 
 

Isn't it fun to dress these babies while they still have no idea what's going on. We love our new little neighbor who was on her 2nd costume of the evening.


Sharing a plate of "puffs" was the best we could do for them.


My three precious children. As different as any 3 children could be and just perfect to their Mama.



Tinley found out those Southern Belles had a lot of work to keep from tripping on their skirt and keep their hats on straight.





It was so nice to take our time and enjoy friends all night long!


Tinley got a treat by going to a birthday party at the indoor pool...This was also Parker's first Kindergarten party that he went to. Lasting friendships are made here apparently.




Happy Booya.  
 

Look at this baby growing up!
 

Cousin selfies...

Parker loving with his new Minecraft wear. I still have no idea what it means. He says its not really scary although it looks scary to me.

 9 months and moving too fast!
 

Proud of how hard Parker and Tinley have worked this first quarter. Fourth grade is harder than it used to be...whew!
 

The germs have gotten us again but we are hoping this girl will be back in class and back at earning her bees with good character this week!

Octoberish things

We enjoyed dressing up as characters together in Kindergarten! 


Tinley rocked the Cowgirl and enjoyed a super cute book!


Kindergarten teachers in the Spirit, with all things..."alicious"


  A fun visit to the Bobbit camp to see some of our buddies.

Waiting on balloons!


 Found them!




Cutie cousins packing the back seat!


Just Camden and I for the weekend!




Fun on vacation with pumpkins:)

Rainy Season

It's been a bit of a rainy season around here (literally and figuratively) but we all know you've got to have rain (and maybe a hurricane) every now and then~ The children's lesson today was about Noah and the rainbow promise. Never are too old to remember "God keeps His promises."
We still managed some fun despite our weather, stomach bugs, etc and we are thankful for it!

Tinley finally got to paint a plate (so she's part of the family according to her!)
 

Parker opted for some mugs for him and for me...even though neither of us drink coffee. We will be drinking water out of mugs for a while I guess.
 

 First painted footprint. I think he liked it!


 Our new Bee mascot at school after the long awaited book fair.


  8 Months....wow~!
 

When you live as far away as we do from school, you do what we do and drive to school and then walk over to join the walkers on "walk to school day." 


Jersey Day for the little Panther.


Trying to catch one of his new looks...this is ALMOST it.


Friends and pizza- yum!


 Hanging with Daddy!


 Little Mama (he's half as big as she is).
 

 Fall Fest in our new neighborhood.
