Greg's Birthday

Greg celebrated his birthday 46th birthday today.  After church, we had lunch with Gigi, Bubba, Ginger & Alan and then birthday dessert at Menchie's.  We enjoyed a relaxing evening at home followed by a cookie cake (special request by Reagan)

Cooper made Greg a birthday crown

 Cooper got some new boots.  He said he was a "real cowboy now"!

Birthday Get Together

We spent the day at Mamaw & Papaw's house today celebrating birthdays ~ Kim, Helen, Tara, & Greg ~ that occurred within the last 2 weeks.  It was a great time as this was the first time for Helen & Allen to see Reagan since her 1st birthday party and their first time ever to meet Cooper.

Pre-K Picture Day

Cooper had his school pictures made today, but of course I had to take a few for myself!

He got a "handsome new shirt" for the occasion



Reagan got her picture made too!!

Self Portrait

Cooper's class was asked to draw a self portrait last week.  They will draw another self portrait at the end of the year to see how much they've improved!

Presenting...Cooper

He said he had brown (tanned) legs and spikey brown hair, blue eyes and he likes the color green...that's why his smile is that color!

FPS Fall Festival

Today was Reagan's school Fall Festival. The 2nd grade performed 5 songs for the crowd and then Reagan & Cooper played lots and lots of games.

 This is the moment where she saw Gigi, Bubba, & Cooper in the crowd

 Each class made a canvas painting to be sold at the silent auction.  The kids used their fingerprints and each wrote a word or two of the Pledge of Allegiance.  Reagan's word is "republic"

Do You See What I See?

A snake, a snake wrapped around the pipe

It's just a skin but it gives me the creeps

It's just a skin but it gives me the creeps!

Greg found this skin in the basement of our house where the hot water heater is.  The scary thing is that this is the second snake skin we've found in a couple of weeks.  We've got the skins, but where are the snakes???
