Tripp's Christmas Program

We went to the Greenville County Museum of Art last weekend for Tripp to sing with his school. It was really fun, we picked up Bah Bah and had lunch at Fuddruckers (Tripp's choice) and went to the museum. They had a lot of activities, but we only got to do a few things. Here is a picture of Tripp as "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" after the face painting station, and also a picture of Tripp with Colin and Bah Bah. Thank you for going with us!

Big Day at the Dentist!

We had a "milestone morning" at the dentist office today!
Colin went on his first trip to see "Dr. Mary" the dentist. He did great, no crying and only minimal squirming. She said his teeth were perfect!


Not to be outdone, Tripp also had a first, he went in the office all by himself, had his teeth cleaned and checked by Dr. Crockett, and didn't even look back to see if I was there!!! So sad to me that he's growing up. I was filling out Colin's paperwork and he just went on ahead without me. By the time I had gathered my things and Colin, he was already in the chair, so I just let him go it alone. They told me he did a great job.


OK, I'm a photo dork, I had my camera with me and took this picture of Colin lying in the chair before the exam...The flash was a little much for him, so he closed his eyes just as the camera went off.

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Happy Birthday to you!

The New "Do"

Well, it has happened... Tripp has finally decided he doesn't have to have "flat hair" as he has called it. Here's a picture of the new, "Spiky Hair" I love it, but he looks so much older to me now...where is the time going?

Happy Thanksgiving 2008!

This time of year we all look around at the things we are most thankful for. Family, friends, and more importantly our creator who in all things we are blessed with his love. Tripp had a great time at his school Thanksgiving luncheon until I moved his chair, he toppled over and busted his lip! Here's a cute picture of Stephen and Tripp - before the incident! I could not have felt worse about it, and still feel like it was totally my fault. Anyway, that morning he got up, I gave him his jeans, and told him to get dressed. He immediately said that he couldn't wear jeans to school because he was a pilgrim in the program and pilgrims did not have jeans. He reminded me of the Sprockets from SNL back in the 80's (Does that tell my age?) in his black pants and black turtleneck, but he was the best dressed pilgrim there! He even did a bible verse in sign language - I didn't know he could do that, but boy was I proud!

We also had family Thanksgiving - Here are cute pictures of them at Bah Bah's house...

And at Nanny's on Saturday...

Happy Birthday Andrew!

Wow, we have a lot of birthdays in our family this time of year! Our nephew Andrew turned 6 November 11. He has grown up so fast, it seems like just a few months ago we met him for the first time! I am now kicking myself for not having brought my camera to his birthday party, I don't have a picture from the party of him, but please see the adorable Thanksgiving Day photo of him with Tripp with their Pilgrim hats on! Happy Birthday Andrew!

Happy Birthday Carleigh!

Well, as usual, I'm a little behind in posting! My neice Carleigh's 3rd Birthday Party was two weekends ago, but I wanted to post an up-to-date picture of her. Hope your day was very special! We had a great time at the Birthday Party!
