One Cute Set of Grandparents



Sweet photo!

Hilton Head with Nena and Poppy


Walking with Poppy.


Telling us very "matter of factly" that he did not need help with the monkey bars OR the slide.


So...we let him do it himself and this is what happened.



First tire swing!




Brian and Will and I have had the luxury of spending some quality time with Nena and Poppy in Hilton Head. Here are some pics of us playing on the playground.

A Special Day at Riverbanks Zoo

Today Will and I decided to take advantage of the beautiful weather and go the Zoo. It was a great day and suprisingly the Zoo wasn't crowded at all! Here are some pics of our special day! Everything went pretty well until Will shoved his hand in the giraffe's mouth and she nipped him. "Not good".


Here's Will feeding the giraffe with a FLAT hand. The way you're supposed to feed them.


Better picture of the FLAT hand. Unfortunately he got a little overconfident, turned it into a fist and got chomped. (Not injured though don't worry!)

A Beautiful Fall Morning

Will's sweet smile.

Hampden Sydney Homecoming!

We had a wonderful time with family and friends this year at HSC Homecoming. Brian was especially a big hit with all of the kids.





One of the kids' favorite things to do was dogpile Brian.





Little Hampden Sydney Booties!



Sweet Will!



He had so much fun running around with his friends!


After the dogpile, it was time for special stories with Uncle Brian.




A Special Day in Virginia Beach

Before we went to Hampden Sydney's Homecoming in October, Will and I were able to join Brian in Virginia Beach for a few days. Even better, Will and I were able to meet up with my dear friend Sallie Ray for lunch and some fun in an arcade. We had such a good time! Can you believe that Will won enough tickets for these super cool sunglasses?



May May the Halloween Cat



On Monday night, we had a Halloween party with a few friends, so we decided to dress up our yard a little. Will and I made homemade tombstones and May really took a liking to this one. In fact, he liked it so much that I decided to leave the random mound of pinestraw there for him to lay on. (I did take the tombstone and luminary bags away).

Will O' The Wisp

The Saturday before Halloween we went to Saluda Shoals Park to enjoy another night of Halloween festivities. Here are some pictures of Will riding the HUGE John Deere tractor, eating a cookie with his gal pal Gracie and later fast asleep in the car!








He was pretty tired! Even when we got home, he didn't wake up & slept until 7:00am the next morning!


Will and the Animals

One thing I've tried to do is raise WIll to love Animals. Here you can see him feeding the pony at the Zoo and "milking the cow".






Boo at the Zoo!

Last Thursday, Sarah, Will, Brian and I went to Boo at the Zoo and had such a great time! Will absolutely loved it!


Bob the Builder!
