Beach Bums

Here Ellie and Tyler play in the sand-together. This photo is the only one where they were still enough to get them in the same frame.

Orange Beach 2008-During Hurricane Ike, we ventured down to Alabama's glorius white sandy beaches. No rain but tons of never-ending wind. The red flag flew the entire time we were there so we only splashed at the edge of the ocean. The kids enjoyed playing in the sand and swimming in the pools.

Happy 62nd birthday MawMaw!

September 3 was Vivian's 62nd birthday and we had her a party yesterday in Arab at her house. Ellie and I made a chocolate cake and my best friend, Amy, iced it for us. Thanks for helping Amer.

Georgie Porgie's Girlfriend and Mary's Little Lamb

Ellie's kindergarten had Mother Goose day where every child dressed up as a character. Ellie wore this Georgie Porgie dress which was mine when I was a child. We paired it with some capri pants to finish off the look. Her best friend, Abby, dressed up as Mary's little lamb.

Demopolis Days

Labor Day weekend we went to visit cousin Alex and cousin Reagan in Demopois. Ellie just loves Alex and Tyler just loves Reagan. They played well together and were quite worn out after our adventure!
