November Happenings

We have had so much fun over the past couple of weeks. The kids are so funny, and they are constantly keeping us on our toes.

Ellie Ruth LOVES to play "Ride the horsie" with Grandpa.

Uncle Nich takes Ellie Ruth for a death-defying ride-- which she loves!

All of the kids love the swingset at the photographer's house. We let them play because they were so good during their photo session.

Grandmama helped keep Ellie Ruth under control as she wanted to run around every where in her new dress.

Ellie Ruth LOVED opening and shutting the gate. But, how can you resist a face like that???

We went to visit Joe and Caroline in Lyman, South Carolina for the Furman game, which GSU won!! Go Eagles! We hope that our kids didn't scare them too much as they await the arrival of their twins. We enjoyed our visit very much and had a great time! We did have one unfortunate incident that I do feel the need to memorialize here. For those of you who have known me for very long, there is a pair of clogs that I bought in college. They are brown with a woven top. I have worn them all winter ever since I got them. While we were at the Furman game, they spontaneously fell apart. I mean literally fell apart. I was walking around on the foam that sits between the sole of the shoe and the rubber outer part. It was very sad. I don't have a picture, but I still haven't thrown them away. Maybe a cobbler could fix them for me!!

Here's Dr. Joe relaxing on the couch.

Caroline is working in the kitchen!

I made Levi a sock puppet, which he loves. We asked him what he wanted to name it, and he said, "Puppet." Despite our efforts to get him to give him a more creative name-- even Mr. Puppet-- he insisted that his name WAS PUPPET! Here, puppet is talking to the dogs who are on the porch.
