Happy New Year!

As I was looking for a possible photo to put on here to wish everyone a Happy New Year, I realized it had been a while since I took a New Year's photo. Oh well, the sentiment remains...

Ride

Down on the farm, there is no telling what Grandpa will have your kids riding...


They were riding around like cargo...

They were seen "mowing" the lawn...

They were even seen cruising on the tractor...

Heading Home

We have been lucky enough to get to go see both sides of our extended family during the last few Christmas breaks. We all have a great time while we're there and we're all sad to leave. That said, Amelia takes leaving so badly that it almost negates a great trip. She just can't help it. She loves her grandparents, aunts, and uncles so much that Meggan and I got to see the sad little face below throughout the rides home from both Atlanta and south Georgia in the last week or so.....

Not Long Ago

I was looking through some photos today and I came across a few of Amelia on the farm when she was Everett's age. It is almost inconceivable to me that these were taken almost 3 years ago. Where did my little baby girl go???

Gone Again

We are on the road again for Christmas part 3. While making any long drive with little ones isn't fun, you can see (well, where the lighting isn't blinding you) we try to have a pretty good time when we stop...and Everett was doing a great job of it...

Christmas

Here is our video from Christmas morning. As expected, Amelia was very excited. Not as expected, Everett wouldn't come down the last few stairs. Totally unexpected, once he saw his new dinosaur slippers, he got so excited he literally fell down the stairs.

Disclaimer: No Everetts were harmed during the filming of this video.

Glass Slipper

After we finally wrestled Everett's new boots off his feet, did he?

a) Thoroughly disagree with this shoe thievery

b) Commit shoe thievery of his own from his sister's doll

c) Attempt to wedge a doll shoe onto his own foot

d) All of the above

If you guessed D, you fully comprehend Everett's weird obsession with shoes...
