Happy Thanksgiving and War Eagle!!!!

Last Wednesday we headed out for a very long weekend away. First to Harold's parents house in Gainseville, GA for Thanksgiving and then on to Auburn for the Iron Bowl. Thanksgiving was so great. My morning sickness has subsided and I feel great which in turn means I was able to eat lots and lots of really yummy food. Harold's grandma, Bessie, makes the BEST collard greens (among many other things) and I think I ate my weight in them. We got to spend lots of quality time with his Mom & Dad and as you can imagine there was lots of 'grandbaby' talk :) I am so thankful to have such amazing in-laws.



Then on to Auburn...As soon as we arrived on Friday you could feel the excitement in the air. I love that town. Don't want to live there again, but it sure was a great place to call home for 26 years. Paxton, Courtney & the kids were there so my parents had a house full which is exactly the way my Mom would have it. We stayed at the tailgate for most of Saturday and then finished watching the game at home. All the kids were at home so we had a cheerleading squad pulling the Tigers through. 17-10. Enough said.



So now back to business as usual. Thankful to be home, but even more thankful for our families. Oh and even more thankful for the one more piece of Lemon Pie my Mom sent home with me. You are the best!!!!

Update


Today we went for our second appointment. Our doctor was stuck in surgery so after a long wait another doctor on her team came to see us. He tried to find the heartbeat with the Doppler but couldn't get a good spot to really hear it. We all thought we heard it once but he couldn't find that sweet spot again. He said not to be worried at all...10 weeks was a little early and all others signs were great. So....we'll be back on Dec. 22nd and hopefully we'll get an early Christmas present :)

On a completely different note...I finished the Holiday photo shoot for Hollywood Baby last week and got the pics uploaded. Here they are http://www.hollywoodbaby.net/ Of course I had to use Maggie, Max & Walker as models. I mean really...are there cuter kids???? (well besides the one in utero...hee hee)

After a long two weeks

After a long two weeks apart, my husband has made it home safe and sound. Phew! Thank you so much for your prayers. I'm not the needy type, but it sure feels good to be back in the arms that hold me.
Laundry is being washed...I just made us some lunch...And Harold is on the couch watching Georgia Football. All feels right in my world!!!!

I saw this at a

I saw this at a Beth Moore conference and wanted to see it again today for some reason. This is just an overwhelming display of everything that is good about life. I wish I could just kiss her little face. I'm sure God does too ;)

thank goodness for winter...

Harold had to spend a couple of weeks at Maxwell for his annual tour this summer. So I assumed the lawn care duties in his absence. Here was the result:


I stopped half way through because the situation was digressing quickly.
Harold actually complemented me by saying "Good Job Sweetie...I've never seen
anything quite like this." Hey, I'll take it.
Nevertheless, he's away again and while I'm missing him, I'm thankful that it's winter :)

The Three Goblins...

We have a Princess, a Robot & a Ghost.
Not surprised at the Diva Maggie's choice of attire.
Max's costume is just perfect.
He wins the cutest costume contest by a long shot.
And for the Ghost...What is there not to love?
p.s. Harold ate so much candy he made himself sick. No kidding.
He said he just had 'Sympathy Morning Sickness'. rrriiiigggghhhtttt.
