Just Cheesin'

We thought we would get the camera out and take a few pictures in front of the Christmas tree and these were too cute (of Mendi and Ben)not to post. Enjoy!

Happy Thanksgiving

Well, we made it back from spending Thanksgiving with Mendi's family. It is always great to see family and friends that we don't get to see very often, not to mention eating like kings and queens. Here are a few pictures from Thanksgiving...

Ben loved Uncle Don's tractors, and let me tell you, these are some serious tractors!

Firing it up!

We always have a great time and we look forward to it again next year.

Happy Halloween!

Well, it has been an eventful week, full of...

Pumpkin carving...

Face painting...

and Cowboy Ben!

A special thanks to Mamaw for making the vest and the chaps. They look great!

One Vote!

I will let this video say the words, which are far better than I could say.

Fall Is Here!

Last weekend the whole family went out to Moore Farms. The kids had a blast getting to see the farm animals, going on a hay ride, picking out a pumpkin from the "pumpkin patch", and cooking out on an open fire. Here are just a few pictures from the activities.

Back to Bloggin' (End of Summer Wrap-up)

I know, I know, I have fallen down on my job to keep the blog updated, but I am now back to the world of blogging. It is pretty bad to give an end of summer update in the middle of October, but I guess better late than never, huh? It was a busy summer of just work. No real big trips or anything very exciting to speak of, but we are all healthy and have each other, so who can complain? Here are a couple of pictures wrapping up the summer. Enjoy!

Training him early!

Sure is nice to get some help mowing the yard.

Especially when your help is this excited to be mowing.

Ben's Birthday Party

First off, I apologize that I am a week behind in getting this posted. Ben had a great 2nd birthday! Thanks to all who came out and braved the heat, to make this such a special day for him. Here are a few pics from the birthday party. Enjoy....
