August/September Funnies and Daniel's Birthday










Oh, this is so pitiful, but I am finally going to post some photos from Daniel's second birthday (which was almost TWO months ago)!

Forgive the lateness, but enjoy the pics. Daniel was a lucky boy this year! He got to celebrate with Grandma Jo at the end of July, our family foursome on Aug. 1, and then with Grammie and Aunt Tori on his actual birthday. (The boys and I were taking a trip to Mississippi on his birthday, and stopped in Nashville on the way there.)


Visiting with Grandma Jo



We were able to visit my dad (aka Granddad Randy), grandparents, and brother's family while in MS. I've included some pictures of the boys with their Mississippi relatives!

Erin and cute little Jonah



Now for some recent funnies (quotes from Nicholas):
  • Bev: Nicholas, do you know what season is coming up after summer?
  • Nicholas: Yes, I do! Football Season! (a child after his father's heart)
  • Nicholas: Mommy, maybe you can put on some lipstick so your lips will look pretty like your cheeks do. (Can't tell if this was meant as a compliment or not.)
  • N: Mom, I really like the yellow macaroni and cheese a lot better than the orange kind.

Go Gators!


















We headed back to Gainesville last weekend for the Gators' first home game of the season.
It was a great time, all the more so because we were able to see (my brother) Michael Shawn, Erin, and their sweet boys. Nicholas and Caleb had a blast together, and said many times, "I love you," over the course of the weekend.
The big boys went to the game with us, while the little ones stayed in the hotel with Erin's dad.

Chris, of course, was just thrilled to see Tebow in the Swamp. If you think Tebow fever is big in the rest of the country, you should see Gainesville!
