Dad is cub master and directing this Hawaiian themed awards ceremony. Mom had to make rice stack and pineapple cake. Sorry folks - not much of a cook.
Bailey's Baptism
How stinkin' cute. Bailey, we are so proud of you. This will be one of the most important decisions you have ever made. Love you pumpkin!
Halloween
Happy Halloween! Okay... is this good versus evil? Of course not... they both turn evil in the movie. And then back to good again... or maybe not. The force is not with me.
PUNCHED IN THE FACE!!!!
Yep! Jeremy was punched in the face. We were playing a coed soccer game against a team with some very large players. One was a tongan who didn't appear to have the skills. Jeremy took the ball from him and he grabbed Jeremy from behind and by his shirt, cocked his arm back, and full on punched Jer in the jaw. Jeremy crumpled to the floor and all of us were in shock. As soon as I went to help him, the girls on the other team wanted to start a fight. I guess that's what we get when we play the young folk. I was so confused. I tried to make peace and when standing in between Jeremy and this Balboa... he came after him for another attack. It was at that time that this "gentle-man" was escorted out of the building. I'm still in shock. Gosh Jer - sorry man. Next time, you may want to duck.
Jaxson needed to take a head shot for his his competitive soccer team, Impact United. This is what I got when I said I needed him to hold still. :) Goof.
Mom and me at my Grandma Willis' funeral. We drove up to Richmond to bury Gayle with my grandpa. It was hard to watch my mamma say goodbye to her mamma... it sure is a good reminder to hold on tight. Love you mom -
OUR NEW HOUSE!!!!!
Mom drove by and we both fell in love. It had a big fenced yard, lots of room, and a 2 car garage. I wanted a house with a front porch and a white picket fence.. okay... it's green, but that can be painted. We made an offer and closed out our anniversary - Feb. 22nd 2006! Yeah! Time to paint.
Jaxson and Bailey LOVE their new little cousin. It's sure nice to finally have one and Grandma Miller's house. Both boys are so gentle and love to hold Colby. This year they got spoiled... even when mom wrote a letter to santa to tell him not too. But look how cute they are, I can't say I blame him.
New York City
On top of the Empire State Building. After the red-eye flight, Bailey was sooo tired. He fell asleep while we waited in line. Dad and mom felt so bad for him that we carried him all the way until we got to the top! We also went to the Lion King play and thought it was so amazing. We stayed with Jeremy's friend, Bryan Collett, whom is going school there to be a lawyer. We went to the Statue of Liberty, Ground Zero, and Time Square. I asked Bailey if he would want to live in New York and he said no because the ground was gross. Thank goodness because it isn't at the top of my list either. But we had fun exploring the city and spending all that time together.
Boston
Rained Out! But had a "ball" anyway. First Red Sox game! We were able to stay with Josh and Julie Miller. Cute baby Colby was only a month old and we got to hold him. We sang into the Xbox Karaoke.... yes yes.... I sang Jessica Simpson. Awesome. We walked in the park and kicked around the soccer ball. We were sad to leave.
