WOW, What a weekend!!

We started the weekend Friday night with a birthday celebration (luau) for Izz with a few of her friends (pictures are below). We had a great time between hula hooping, playing games, and jumping in a blow up thingy (don't you love my technical words). Then on Saturday, we had a soccer game and then headed to Cola for a USC football game (P's first!!). We really didn't know what to expect or how he would act there, but it was wonderful!! In fact, he didn't move or get down for 2 HOURS!! By the time we left, he could get some of the cheers (first down, Game-Cocks, defense) and could spot Cocky almost anywhere ("Oh, My Cocky, my Cocky"). I wish I could have gotten them on video but it didn't work!! Even 3 days later, he is still talking about football!! I love it!!

Birthday Girl-

Here are some pictures from the party...

Labor Day Weekend

This past weekend was great! It seems like we have been running so much lately- between K having meetings, appointments, visiting the sick, and the normal sermon stuff; Izz having school, friends, and soccer; and p and I just doing doing the normal day to day things- life has been alittle chaotic to say the least!But this weekend, we tried not to do much of anything, except spend time with each other and visit family!!It was great and something we really needed!
Here is the fam relaxing and watching tv together friday night after dinner.

And here the kids were watching Saturday morning cartoons. I remember doing this as a young child!

It's Football Season Again!!

I just love the Fall- the cooler weather, the beautiful leaves, the apples, and of course-football!!

We had our Sunday School Class and their families over to watch the first game last night-18 people all in our downstairs because it was raining. But we had a blast- the kids running in and out to cheer when they heard us, all the food, the fact that we not only won the first game but shut out State, and just spending time with friends! Here is a picture I took right before of the kids (Nana-the pants almost fit!) :)

So far the Gamecocks are off to a good start, 1-0! Let the games begin!! Go Cocks!
