Halloween

We are glad we got to go Trick-or-treating with Aunt April (herbal tea) and Uncle Joe (cup of Joe).

Mommy was so excited to let Libby be a twin with her first Cabbage Patch Kid.  Mom collected Cabbage Patch Kids when she was younger so this was special to her. 

Katheryn's wedding

Mommy went to Katheryn's wedding with her friends and Libby.  It was really pretty and she even got a cute picture of Libby from it. 

Everyone did what they call the "Lori pose" after Mommy...it is how she hides her double chins!

Mommy and Daddy's anniversary

Mom was really sad that Dad was in California without us for a month but Mom became super happy when she got these pretty flowers for their anniversary.  It was the biggest bouquet she had ever gotten. 

New costume

Elijah now has a new costume that he changes into every day....yes a skeleton!

Farm Day in Tallahassee

Nana, Aunt April, and all of us went to Farm Days.  This is when different farms around the area let you come in and see what their farm is about.  This farm had a maze, hay ride, hay to climb all over and tons of other fun things.  It was a little overcast so the farmer asked us if we wanted to wait to go on the hayride because it may rain.  We decided to go anyway....and we got soaked!

Snow cones

One of our favorite things to do is to get snow cones at Lake Ella.  Elijah always gets his and Aunt April's favorite....tiger's blood.

Spending time with Nee Nee and Pops

Whether we are in Tifton reading books with Nee Nee or walking around Lake Ella in Tallahassee we love spending time with Nee Nee and Pops. 

Our first pets

Billy Bob

When we found out we were moving to California Mommy and Daddy knew we couldn't bring the cats with us so we had to find them a good home.  Mommy is glad, with the help of Nee Nee, to have found them a good place to live. 

Bobby Ray

Elliott's Pre-K class

It is kinda hard to see but Mommy, Elijah and Libby would come to my class a couple of times a week for fun.  Elijah even got to sit in circle time....he is the one on the far left with a Batman mask on... and I am on the far right.  I loved preschool!

Doing a little grocery shopping

Libby loves riding in the car at Publix....now that Mommy has three kids it is a fight as to who has to walk.

Libby's first time on an airplane

On our way back from Virginia and West Virginia Mommy was sad because Daddy had to celebrate his birthday all by himself in Miami.  He was there for work.  Mommy decided to surprise Daddy and fly from Jacksonville to Miami to see him for the weekend.  Libby also got to fly for the first time!  Thank you, Aunt Itsy, for watching the rest of us so Mommy could be with Daddy.

Charlotte's "Lottie" Blessing

Charlotte was blessed on Sunday and we weren't able to be there.
We were so lucky to have been there when
Aunt Beka decided to take pictures of Lottie in her blessing outfit.
She is so adorable and we love Aunt Beka.

Visiting the Gruel Family, Grandma Julia, and Uncle Joe

We are so glad we got to come and spend time with Aunt Rebekah and Uncle Will.  We love their family and can't wait to see them again.  We are also so glad we got to see Grandma Julia and Uncle Joe.

Gideon loved playing with Libby.  It was so cute!

Mary is such a good, little mother.  She loved holding the babies and was always so helpful at dinner time. 

The boys had tons of fun playing in the trees back behind their house.
Ephraim, Joseph, Nolan and me.

It was so fun to be serenaded by the trumpets!

We love Uncle Joe!

Nothing better than two forms of technology

Elijah was in heaven at Aunt Kristi and Uncle Mike's house....technology was everywhere and at one point he was playing the same game on the iPad and iPhone at the same time.

Outdoor fun in Virginia

We went to the park and also decided to play a little football, soccer, and baseball.  It was tons of fun!

John and Ty were having so much fun pushing Libby around.  They were going as fast as they could and she was loving it.

Elijah doing what he does best...eating!
