MOVING WEEK!

We are moving this Wednesday and Thursday to Marshall, MN. We will be going home to Bainbridge, GA for the holidays and then Jerry will drive with the dogs and I will fly with Keith. I am sorry that I have been slack about posting to the blog lately. We have had many problems when it comes to moving. First, our house hasn't sold in SC, second, we lost a rental home a few days ago that we set up to rent, third, we are moving into a hotel until we find a place to live. This has TOTALLY changed how I have had to pack, since our stuff will be in storage with the moving company. Anyways, all of that was to explain how crazy our life is and why the blog is not very up to date. Although all that is going on, we are still VERY excited to move and figure out why God wants "us southern people" in MN!! If you need us you can still get in touch with me on my cell phone, Jerry's will not be working after Friday (it is a company phone). We will be home with our family until Jan 3. Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and always remember the true meaning of Christmas!

Swine Time 2007

Swine Time, is held the Saturday after Thanksgiving in Climax, GA. We have a family tradition of going every year. There is a playground near by that Keith was able to play on. There are all kinds of crafts, food, and animals.

Hey there!

Almost there, just have to get this leg out!
Of course, LaLa and PaPa are right there to make sure Keith doesn't fall!

We went on a HUGE slide and had a blast! The first few times Keith went down with Mommy.

Then I let him slide down by himself. Don't' worry, Mom was at the bottom waiting on him and I was not far behind!
The last time Daddy went down with Keith and he jumped up before he went down. Keith thought that was fun. When he got off of the slide at the bottom he was laughing saying "Daddy".

Looking at the pigs with LaLa.
Watching the parade with LaLa.
Keith wasn't sure if he wanted to ride the pony or not, but once he got on he didn't want to get off. He was even chugging the pony to try to get him to go faster!
Thanks for the pony ride LaLa and PaPa, Keith loved it!

Keith and Kate

Jerry's brother Ben, has a little girl named Kate. Kate will be 2 in December. Ben and his wife Haley live in Valdosta, Ga. We went over for a visit the Friday after Thanksgiving and these are the pictures we got from the visit. Keith and Kate had a blast together this time!

Jerry and Ben went out golfing, and the Mommies took with kids to the playground at McDonald's. They wouldn't go up very far, but where ever they went they went together.


Kate didn't like to go up very far, so Haley had to make a few trips up the playground to get her!
Thanks Haley, you are such a great Mom and Aunt!
Grandma bought Keith and Kate these Christmas headbands.

Here is Keith after he put his on by himself!
Here is Kate trying to explain to her younger cousin how to put them on the right way.
This is Kate giving up, she can't teach that boy anything!

The next series of pictures is to cute. Kate wanted to hold Keith's hand.
Keith says, "NO, Mine".
Kate chase Keith trying to get his hand while Keith is saying "No, Mine"!

Aren't they the cutest kids ever?

Thanksgiving in Bainbridge

We were home in Bainbridge for Thanksgiving and had a good time with family. Jerry's Grandfather died early Thanksgiving morning, it was a sad but joyful time. Although we don't have Grandpa anymore, we know he is in Heaven now and that makes us smile. We enjoyed all the time with family over the holidays.

Keith loves to throw the ball to the dogs at La La's house. I called his name and took this picture, he looks like he is up to something!
Playing on LaLa's legs.
This picture means so much to me. I used to lay on the floor with Daddy and my snoopy when I was little. It brought tears to my eyes when Keith got down on the floor with Daddy and his snoopy.


Keith loves to "jump, jump", here he is with Uncle Jon.


Keith and Uncle Jon racing at LaLa's. I think Keith is in the lead!
Throwing the ball with our 7 month old baby girl Sara!

Keith cooking with Daddy. Well, not actually cooking but helping daddy to clean up:)

Early morning walk with PaPa. Keith heard me calling PaPa Daddy, since he is my Daddy. Now Keith will see PaPa and say "Daddy"!
Keith and Daddy!
Keith was kind of unsure about the horses but he warmed up. This is Keith with Destiny.

Pictures from Athens

Here are a bunch of pictures from Athens. There are 3 post total from this past weekend, make sure you look at them all:)

He has so many cute facial expressions these days. He is almost 18 months and it feels like time has flown by!
Uncle Jon and Keith played out side for at least an hour if not more. Jon taught Keith how to play in the leaves.
Just my cute boy!
This is such an amazing picture and I am SOOOO jealous! Hopefully our Christmas picture will turn out this good. This is Keith with his Aunt and Uncle and NyNa (NINA). Nina is Jon's dog and Keith calls her Nyna.
This is Keith in his new snow outfit and snow boots. He wasn't really excited about it, but he better get used to it!


Keith and Grant in the hammock.

Keith loves his cousin Grant!
Keith wanted off of the hammock and to his LaLa!

Keith wanted the football but Nina had it. Keith, decided he would distract her with a stick and try to get the football.
And it worked!
Here they are together enjoying the football and stick!
Jon had a shadow all weekend!

Keith was saying "Up", "tree". Jon said Keith helped him to appreciate the little things!

Keith is playing with his new "learning toy" from LaLa. He played with it over, and over, and over again. There are balls that go down the ramp and every time he sees it he says "ball".
Keith wanted to be everywhere that Grant was and doing everything he was!

Daddy and Keith, notice Daddy's new hair growing on his face!
