St. Peter's Episcopal Church

While in West Virginia we had the priveledge of attending a service at Brian's home church - St. Peter's Episcopal. While there, Will decided to ham it up for the camera, so we took full advantage of the opportunity for a photo shoot.






Christmas in WV

We went to West Virginia for Christmas and had a wonderful time visiting with Brian's family: Nena, Poppy, and Pappaw. It was so nice to have some time to relax and enjoy one another and experience our first Christmas with Will. As you can see from the below photos, he really enjoyed all the attention, and of course his new Radio Flyer car.


Nena made awesome stockings full of gifts! Here I am donning one of those gifts - a pink shower cap!


We tried to get a picture of Will waving from his new car.

Will & Nena. I love the PJs she got for him!

Will loves to love!

A Night Out with Friends



While in Augusta, we were able to hang out with some of our high school friends and their wives. We saw Jeff Bone and his wife Heidi (pictured above), Jon Denning, and Colin Smith. It was so nice to catch up and revisit old stories! And to feel like an adult for a little while!

Thanksgiving in Augusta

This Thanksgiving we had a wonderful time visiting our Augusta family: my parents, my sisters, Uncle Tony, Poppi and Grammy, Gran, the Great Aunt Pam and Uncle David, my cousin Ashley, her husband Tom, and their 3 girls: Alexandra, Brenna and Isabel. We played cornhole, hung out outside (enjoying the 60+ degree weather), and even ate outside. At times, there are definite advantages to living in the SouthEast!





This is Will's new look. He has several teeth coming in and I think they feel different on his tongue. So he constantly has his tongue hanging out just like this. Very cute. (to me at least!)




Will ate with all of us at the "big" table. He enjoyed turkey, mashed potatoes, green beans, and spit out sweet potato casserole and my Grandad's famous dressing. Hey - more for us! I'm telling you, this child is DRAMATIC - just like his Papa! HAHA!
