Sam and I are hangin' on this wild ride!! These boys cause our hearts to be full and our sanity to be thin. Whoo... we sure do get tired! I'm glad that we vowed to keep our life simple during this season of life because we FALL OUT at about 9:00pm causing no time for much else! We feel sooo balanced with raising our little men, nurturing our marriage, maintaining our home, loving and serving our church family, enjoying our relationships with family, friends, and neighbors, teaching kiddos, leading aerobics, umpiring... Whoo... that sounds like alot... but it's not... it's all in balance... AND WE ARE LOVING IT!!!
The Boys... oh, our boys!!! They are doing WONDERFUL!! They LOVE our new church family with sweet friends. They LOVE our neighbors who they romp around the woods and wrestle with! They LOVE going to school with their daddy as their p.e. teacher. They are all healthy and happy!
Jackson started 4th grade... oh me, oh my! We are sharing the same flip-flops and Crocs. CRAZY!
Bo started Pre-K. My goodness... he goes to school with Sam, Jackson, & Colby and is gone ALL DAY... EVERYDAY... he loves it though... he has p.e. with Dad, sees Aunt Pam at breakfast, and sees his brothers throughout the day.
Colby started 1st grade. He gives me that goodbye kiss every morning and I promise that his wife is gonna adore those smooches one day!
So... what's a momma to do when her 3 big boys are off to school all day??
MAX TIME!!!!! We are having sooooo much fun!!! No wrestlers, no Spongebob, no bike accidents... just blocks, Max & Ruby, and giggle runs through the house!! Oh, baby love... I'm soakin' him up!!!
And he's soaking me!!! He LOVES to play with the waterhose and then turns it on me to make me squeal!!!

Our summer was full of fun... Bo tubed like a mad man at the lake... even with a wrapped up foot after having a fishing hook removed at the emergency room.
Colby learned to wakeboard and ski!!!
Jackson learned to ski!!!
We had the Super Boy Summer with our neighbors... swimming, wrestling, fort building, sleepovers, Wii, movies, bike rides, woods adventures... we love those boys!!!
Sam got to fish, ALOT!!! He deserved it... those teachers work hard earning that summer vacation!!

I got to go to the beach for a scrapbooking weekend with my gal pals in Orlando. We scrapped, lounged by the pool, did aerobics in the kitchen, and had a Super Model photo shoot!!
We got to meet up with the Caffey's for lunch in Atlanta!
Max used his first explosive on July 4th at the lake!
I got to see Jen on a qick trip to Orlando!
And of course, Ella Faith!!!

Jackson went to camp for 5 days!!! AAHHH!!! That's our Children's Minister, Chris! Jack did great at CentriKid... he did great... we missed him terribly. He called me the first night and his voice sounded a little deeper on the phone saying, "Mom, I'm about to take my shower, so I thought I'd call you first!!!"
We get to see Ben & Isaac, Sam's sister's twin boys quite a bit. We LOVE it!!! We get to go to their birthday party in a few weeks.... yay! We live close enough to do that now!!!
And of course... Pop & Lali, Sam's parents!!! We LOVE living close to Pop & Lali. Life is just so rich getting to really "do life" with family on a regular basis!!!
Just another precious picture of my baby boy!!!
Pop & Lali took the boys one night while we were on vacation at the lake. So fun... we had a yummy dinner and the next morning... "Sam took his little gal fishin'"

Sam and the big boys got to camp out in the woods by the creek in Grammoo and Grouch's mountain!
Grammoo made ice cream cones for everyone, of course!!! I love being close to my momma, so we can just hop over there for a night!!!
Grouch helped everybody decorate water bottles for everybody to have a bottle race down the creek!
Bo enjoyed tee-ball!!!
We LOVED going to Rome Braves' games with the Rutland's!!
We got to see Daddy and Rhonda & Tami, Miles, Cale, & Whitney & Kristen and the kiddos on our Easter/Spring Break Trip to Orlando and Alabama. "Throw me a roll!!!"
Here are my kids... Tami's kids, Cale & Whitney... and Kristen's twin girls, Hailey & Kailey, & baby boy, Daiton! Oh yeah... Kristen is still aceing her way through nursing school... you go girl!!!
