Faiths Fun times

Faith playing games, and she even WON!

Notice the color of the horse! he he

I took a pic of this because Faith and I went on it! she had a blast i couldn't believe it! I didnt think she would like it but she didn't stop laughing and giggling the entire ride. There was a few older kids 9 or 10 and they were scared and Faith was just like WEEEEEEEEE

Faith playing darts!

This is Faith peeking through a tree at the childrens museum

Faith was my Dr.

Just got done going down the toilet slide

Ice Cream anyone??

Nothing like that smile! LOL

Faith won Dora at the carnival

Riding the train

Faith and I have been super busy with the Carnival, play dates, and a birthday party at the Childrens Museum. She has been having a blast and enjoying every second of it! I do have to say that i am pretty pooped after all of the fun times, but its worth it to see the smile on her face. Hugs and Kisses to you all! Addy and Faith

Arizona Visit

Hi All, Here are some pictures from our recent trip to Arizona to visit Lindsey. We had a great time and enjoyed the sunny warm weather. Lindsey is showing off her birthday present, her new TV. Love, Debbie

Cabinets & Floors

What a pleasant surprise. Alan thinks he might even start installing these tomorrow! Woot! Woot!

Continued Progress

Very Very Exciting to see the wood floors start to take shape. The walls will be painted the beautiful new creekbed color!

Fresh Coat

It's only paint. My first instinct was to go with the darker creekbed. Somehow, someway I folded under the pressure of picking a "dark color" (probably bad memories of Carrie's RED room - don't remind me - it was oppressive.) I sent Alan an e-mail and said Shabby Chic it is. Well - that was a bad mistake. After just one coat I knew I should have gone with my gut instinct. The next day the painter tried some samples of Creekbed #1006 - it was the right choice (I think). We'll see when everything is installed!!

Faiths fun

This was Faiths 1st picnic of the year! She has been waiting and was so excited to eat outside!

This is Faiths new nightgown and she was super excited since she has a nightgown like Nana!

Faith and Nana! Aren't they cute!!!

Black olive anyone???

This is my favorite dress i just love it and her hair looks just adorable, my new fav. picture!!


I love to see pictures of everyone on here, so i'm figuring that everyone likes to see whats going on with Faith too! We have a busy weekend so we will be updating again soon! Carnival, another playdate, and Faith is going to her first Birthday party for one of her friends. She has been invited to many but this is the first one we are going to go to. I really can't believe how people go crazy for the kids birthday at 3 and 4!!! Im sure she will have fun though! HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND EVERYONE!!! Love and miss you all, Addy

All the guys like "Italian"

Yum, we all enjoyed being together at Luigis.

Smilers

We had a nice time eating out together at Luigis.

Yes Knitting Needles Come in Size U.S. 50

Who Knew? They Came so Big!I went to Stitches South. The largest Fiber and Knitting Conference in the South! It happens for a week with classes and the who's who of Fiber in the Country. The have a market place all week and the girls from the yarn shop all went the last day Sunday. What fun we had! I got several books and these great needles. It took three hours to knit the stole. Talk about a quick gift.

The book I got with it "Big Stitch Knitting By Becca Smith" has patterns for rugs and shawls. Becca says you can use 12 different yarns mixed together to make a great fabric. I meet Beeca there and had her sign my book. What fun I had.

Addie and Alaina

Emily Ann and Peter have sent me pictures from their phone over this past month. I thought since Addy and Faith asked to see the girls I would share them with you. They are so cute!






Bath time! I am just to cute!!!!



Alaina's turn in Addie's chair. Me too Mommie Me too!


Look at me I'm sitting up like a big girl.



Everyone needs to find a place to read!



swinging on a beautiful Day!

Logs & Dogs

Adam came home with us for the weekend. We made a fire in the carriage house stove and watched it for a couple of hours and talked and laughed. Later we made our hot dogs over the fire. Can you tell how much Adam is enjoying his?

Grandparent's Day

We enjoyed going to Jackson School for Grandparent's Day. Ken and I visited Isaac and Adam's classroom and we watched Adam give a presentation on immigrants. Isaac served as a guide for part of the morning. Here we were going to the gym for an array of snacks.

Play days

We have been busy busy again! Faith had a play date with some of her friends today and i got some great shots! i just love them, sadly i posted them before i rotated them and it wont let me do it, ive been trying for a bit and cant figure it out so sorry they are the wrong way. Seems to me the longer Joe and i are together, the cuter the pictures get! lol We love and miss you all!

Faith has been asking where Alaina and Addie are because we dont see them on here anymore. I just told them Emily is really busy and maybe she will have a chance soon! Even though we dont always see you guys we think about, love , and miss you all!! addy

What a Difference a Day Makes!

Well, Alan's team is cruisin' right along. Rough electrical finished up, venting is in place, drywall was hung, sanded, and mudded (not sure if its a word - but I'm using it anyway). I'm working on paint colors. Right now I'm looking in the brown shades such as desert light, hazewood, and creekbed. I think they each could be a nice back drop for the antique white cabinets with chocolate glaze, espresso countertops, and the tile I picked out. Yes, I have decided to go with my first love on the tile!

Thank you Paul and Emily

We had a wonderful time last week visiting with Paul and Emily in their lovely Peachtree home. They couldn't have been more hospitable as we enjoyed wonderful meals and doing something special each day, all the while basking in the luxuriously warm weather. (Temps were in the teens in the UP yesterday!) How nice to spend some quality time together in their home. As evidenced by this picture, Mom made the discovery that she did enjoy flying after all.

Visit to GA

We all had a great time when Mom, Linda, and Carol visited. We went for Cart ride, to the Jimmy Carter Library, Little White House in Warm Springs GA, and Sliverhill Al, to visit Zion church. We stayed over night in Mobile Al and eat on long the coast. What a great trip with lots of memories to share! (see GiGi for details) LOL

Hope you enjoy the slideshow it is 51 pictures of many.
love
Emily
