We're Moving

I'm sure almost all of my followers know that we're moving, but I've been hesitant to post anything until it was official. Well, it's official now. Our house is now on the market. Check it out at the following link: http://www.cohomefinder.com/p/80129/808697.htm

So, you may be wondering where we are moving? We're heading south and alot further east. We're moving to Dallas, TX. Actually, Tom, Micah and I are in Dallas right now on a house hunting trip. We're hoping to find a lake home so Tom can get back to one of his passions, water skiing. Unfortunately, the house we fell in love with online went under contract on the 6th and is contingent upon the sell of the buyer's home. We're crossing our fingers that things fall through for them (is that evil?) so we can snag it. Despite that chaos, we're gonna look at several other choices that we've found. There's just not much to choose from that's lake front and on the market right before the holiday season. Say a prayer that we find something in the next 5 days. I'd hate to be homeless for the holidays.

Oh, and I can't forget to send a HAPPY BIRTHDAY message to my nephew, WILL! His birthday is tomorrow! We love you. Your card is in the mail.

Another foot

Over the weekend (November 14-15, yeah, I've been slacking lately), we got another foot of snow. So, we thought why not get Micah dressed in all of his snow gear and get some pictures of his reaction. Here you go...




Although we were only outside for about 10 minutes, it was worth the 20 minutes it took to get everyone dressed:)

Zoo (w/ lots of pictures)

While we were in Memphis we also went on an adventure to the zoo! We saw lots of animals and Micah, Will, and Henry enjoyed every minute of it.


We figured out where Micah got his red hair from...ha ha!


Micah's older cousin, Will, pulled him around and showed him all of the animals.


Henry told him about the giraffes.


Micah enjoyed stretching his legs a little.


He liked watching the elephants with his grandaddy.




Cool man, Henry!






Little man had so much fun!

Home

Tom comes home from his field work tomorrow. Thank goodness! It's been 5 long, stressful, action packed, overwhelming, frustrating,sleepless, busy days and nights. I'm pooped!

Trick or Treat

Last week Micah and I went back home to Mississippi for Halloween weekend. The whole trip was short and sweet, but hopefully we'll be able to visit more often in 2010 and in years to come. More on that later...


I don't think I know of another one year old that has been on as many airplanes as this little guy. He's a pro at it now.



On Halloween night Hannah decided that it was cooler to go trick or treating with her friends rather than her brother and little cousins. So, she got her picture taken earlier in the night before everyone else was dressed. She rocked out one of her mom's old dance costumes from the 80's.



Here's Nana and all of her grandsons before they hit the streets.




It doesn't get much better than this. Who wouldn't want to be pulled around in a wagon collecting candy?


Micah loves his Aunt Dawne!

Fall 2009 First Blizzard

I know I'm a little behind on blogging. Never fear though. I've been keeping up with everything through pictures and videos. I've just been slacking on getting everything posted. So, here we go.

Last week went from pleasant fall weather to a taste of a winter blast. It started snowing Tuesday night and didn't stop until Thursday night.

This is what our backyard looked like Wednesday before I went to work. Yes, I went to work because nothing closes here.


This is the same setting Wednesday night when I got home from work. More snow. And it just kept coming.


This is what things looked like Thursday morning. And, yes, I went to work.

Chuck E. Cheese

Saturday morning Micah, Tom and I went to Chuck E. Cheese to help Gia celebrate her 2nd Birthday. It was great to see how his face lit up when he was around all of the bright lights, machines, rides, games and of course Chuck E. Cheese. He had so much fun, and I think Tom and I had just as much fun too.
