Time for a Check Up

Today was Reagan's semi-annual visit to the tooth doctor. It was also picture day at school, so she was excited to wear her new dress to the dentist and school.

Making sure everything is in place!
She told me, "When I look in this mirror, I am gorgeous!" ~ I have to agree Cooper wanted no part of having his picture made today ~ at home or at school ~ so we'll see if the photographer got any good shots because I didn't
Playing at the dentist's office
She has a look of concentration
this was the 1st time she let them use the "tickle brush" on her
She was so brave

the hygienist was very sweet to put up with all my picture taking (I did ask permission before I started taking pictures!)
time for x-rays
I am so proud of her
2 thumbs up from the dentist again this visit

Football Time in Tennessee

There are a few other couples in our life group that are TN fans, so we decided to take a little road trip and go to a game this weekend. Greg, me, Duane, Jessica, Frank & Miki packed up Saturday morning, drove to K-town to watch the TN Vols play Vanderbilt. It was an exciting game, but the company was even better. We are one big, happy BAMily!

Thanks to Greg's parents for switching houses for the weekend and watching over Reagan and Cooper. Thanks to Duane's parents for coming in from Atlanta to stay with their kids and to Miki's dad for letting her two kids stay with him! We had a great time and have more outreach opportunities planned for next year!
