Long Days of December

 Ethan came home from school one day be silly so I thought I would take some photos of him. He cracks me up!

 I bought Amber a new dog bed but between Ethan, Wyatt and Bandit, she doesn't get to sleep on in much.


 So cute to see Bandit with the boys.

 Jack got invited to play box lacrosse with a really good team this year and we've really enjoyed watching him play. It's played in an area and is very fast paced and lots of fun.


 Very aggressive and different from regular lacrosse.


 We go into the playoffs this weekend as the only undefeated team. Do you see the score? Just about every game was like this.

 Wyatt had to make a three dimensional snowman for a school project.

 I think he did a pretty good job!

 Our silly elf got into a lot of mischief this season!


 I added (well, technically Jason added them) to our dining nook.

 I'm in love.
They might be a tad high (I have a bad habit of doing that) but I think I want to add an even longer shelve below the bottom one to help even it out.

 I also added snowflake decals to the front door. These may, or may not, still be up.

 I think Jingle James wants to go to school with the boys.

 This dabbing thing is getting a little out of control.

 We went to get our Christmas tree from the local nursery and they had a whole section of flocked trees that was the perfect setting for some pictures of the boys.

 It's gorgeous but near impossible to get them to all smile AND look at me at the same time.

 Time to decorate the tree!






 A rare mama-bear photo!


 I love sitting in a dark room with a lit Christmas tree.

So very peaceful.

Having a Great Visit with Aunt Delly

I know it's been a VERY long time since I've last posted, but it's hard when you have company in town. Plus, I've been especially exhausted this past week. Jack get's so excited when we have visitors that he gets even crazier than normal! September should be fun when we have Daddy, Granny and Grandma in town. I've been continuously changing up our great room bookshelves, so I thought I would post a photo for you to see. If anyone has more ideas on how to make it look better, let me know. These are some pictures of Jack at gymnastics. He has gotten so much better at this club. They do a lot more strengthening stuff than the old place. Plus they have an older boys class so they don't just teach girly stuff at this age. It's been fun to see him do so well. Of course, a lot of time he still goofs around, trying to fall off stuff, but for the most part he's pretty good at staying on task. Last week they did the monkey bars and he LOVED it and was...
 We have traveled around the SE for lacrosse tournaments in the past but this year we had the opportunity to travel to Denver, CO for one. I think it was one of my favorite. We tried to make it a family vacation as well, so we traveled in early the day before and spent some time exploring.  We headed down to Rock Park in Castle Rock and did a little hiking.  See that big rock in the background? Yup, the boys climbed all the way to the top. Ethan and I made it to the base of the rock while Jason, Jack and Wyatt climbed up top.  Ethan and I messing around waiting on the other boys.  Photos of the boys up top.  Our first game was an evening game, so we had most of the day to explore and get used to the altitude (which definitely got to the boys once they got on the field). The fun part of having good friends on the same lacrosse team is you get to explore together. We all drove up to Red Rocks to expl...

Summer is Lacrosse

 This summer was especially busy for us as Jack played on TWO travel lacrosse teams and Wyatt played his first year on one. We only had one weekend where Jason and Wyatt headed off to Nashville, TN while Jack, Ethan and I stayed here for each of their tournaments.  This was Wyatt's oh-so-happy-to-get-his-photo-taken face before they headed out to Nashville. I just loved the shirt!!  This was the set up we had for Jack's tournament in town. Ethan was happy as a clam with shade and his iPad!!  Jack had a phenomenal first tournament and was directly responsible for almost all the teams goals. He looked awesome and he joked it was because his annoying youngest brother wasn't around. Boys!  Just a few shots of Jack playing.  Summer also means supporting our local professional field lacrosse team, The Atlanta Blaze. Jack and his buddy Zac had the privilege of working with the team's head coach through the local youth Thund...
