Happy Halloween

Dan and I with our favorite "treats" Lainey the ladybug and Aubrey the bumblebee!


The girls enjoyed their 1st (VERY busy) Halloween! They attended TWO birthday parties, plus visiting family and friends trick or treating, we covered 4 counties between Friday and Saturday just so everyone would get a visit from these precious "treats"!! The girls really racked up on all their treats. I will admit by the time we finally got home at 11PM Halloween night, we were VERY TIRED! lol It was a fun filled day for us all!
On Friday, the girls visited Aunt Amanda and the girls at the bank, then we went to Millport and surprised Aunt Sheila at work, then went to Granny Prater's and visited with her and G-diddy. Granny and G-diddy both got a kick out of the girls' costumes. It was good seeing both of them. Aubrey and Lainey both just sat in Granny's lap and were just soo happy, she has that special touch, but when you have a combined total of 22 grandkids and great grandkids plus another one one the way, you probably have lots of practice!




On saturday, we started the festivities by attending Tucker's 1st Birthday party, which was a costume party. There were all kinds of cute costumes there. After Tucker's party, the girls, Moma D and I went to Winfield to the next birthday party. We helped Ally Tidwell celebrate her 1st Birthday as well.



We then went to see Mrs. Anita( my second mom, one of my best friends, Martha's mom, I really wish Martha would of been there!) and Ms. Ruth. We had sooo much fun with these two ladies. They had the girls laughing the entire time ( we were in such a hurry I didnt get a picture, but Ms. Ruth did and that is what counts! :) )



Next stop, Maw Maw's house. She was sooo glad to see the girls. I think seeing the girls always makes her feel better. She is still recovering from her ankle surgery, but slowly continues to get better everyday so please continue to pray for her.



Then we came home for maybe 20 minutes, Hudson and Danni Kate came to trick or treat at our house. Of course Hudson is always ready to go go go and Danni Kate enjoys playing in the leaves in our yard right now ( and if anyone wants to spare your free time and come rake them up I am sure Dan would be very grateful!)



Then across the highway we went to Nana's House.



Next stop, Moma D's Cabin. Eli was more excited than anyone I believe, he enjoys Halloween too! We attempted to get a picture with Eli in it as well but he was so overjoyed with excitement he wouldn't sit still long enough!

Then it was off to Flatwoods to see Popa Holley, he even got in the spirit and had his Halloween mask on, he is sooo funny!

Finally we made it to Tuscaloosa, to Aunt Nita and Uncle Wayne's house. Uncle Wayne treated us to steaks as our Halloween treat and they were YUMMY!!!

















(we are practicing letting the girls sit by Uncle Wayne so when Christmas gets here they wont be scared of Santa! lol)




















Overall, it was a very fun and busy day, the girls are probably wondering what all the fuss was about, I guess Dan and I got more from it than them, but that's ok in another year it will be much more exciting!



We would like to mention that we missed Popa Jim and wish he could of been here as well, but we will see him in a few weeks! We love and miss you! :)

Our House Divided


This picture was taken saturday before either team played, probably a good thing because Dan probably wouldn't have that smile on his face!

Roll Tide!!!

Saturday the girls and I went to Columbus to watch the Bama vs Ole Miss game with Lisa, Avery and Ms. Carolyn. We had lots of fun and lots of goodies to eat during the game! Thanks girls for a wonderful time! We love ya'll!


Lainey pondering how mad her daddy is going to be since Awbarn got beat?!?!?
Aubrey not happy with a call the refs made against Alabama!!
Lainey, Avery and Aubrey in their matching Houndstooth!!! ROLL TIDE ROLL!!!!

Lil Fashion Divas


Does it get any cuter than this!?!?!? We had a family day Friday which consisted of going to Birmingham to shop for a little bit, Dan wasn't thrilled, but since I was spending B'day money he didn't get as bent out of shape like he usually does when we go shopping. I really don't understand why he gets ill when we go shopping?!?!? :)

Camo Cuties

Moma D had bought the girls these outfits back when I found out we were having girls. When their Daddy and G-Diddy are big hunters they have to have something camo in their huge wardrobe. So the girls have "fair wear" for Popa Jim and now they have their "camo wear" for their Daddy and G-diddy. And we really won't get started on the clothing wear they have for their mommy and Moma D!!! lol

4 Months Old!


Where is the time going???? Our angels are growing TOO FAST! :( However, we are enjoying every minute of their precious little lives! Here are a few pictures we took throughout the day. I did discover, the older they are getting the harder it is getting both of them to look at the camera at the same time. They weren't in a chipper mood this morning, but they are still cute in their pics no matter what!

I tried fixing their shirts where you could read what it says, but no such luck... "So cute it's SCARY!"


The girls in their Halloween PJ'S


More and more everyday Dan and I realize what a blessing Aubrey and Lainey are. People will walk past us making the comment "bless your heart" and now I respond with..."Our hearts ARE BLESSED, with these two precious girls." I truly believe God gives you what you can handle and we don't know why he thought we could handle it, but soooo very very thankful he trusted that we can! :)

"Babies" got her blue jeans on!

I think the title speaks for itself...and don't they look sooo cute!!!! ( I tried something new with the girls wearing smaller bows, but I have to say I LOVE the bigger bows better!!)
