Christmas in....Molena?

We spent Saturday traveling south to Molena Georgia, where Kelly's Aunt Toni lives, to have our Christmas with the Bell Family! We had a long day, traveling three hours, but it was well worth it for good food, good spirits, and good times! Isn't that what Christmas is all about!? The kids were great and we all enjoyed seeing each other!!

It's beginning to look alot like Christmas...

Here are the kids all dressed up in their Sunday best. River was doing some model shots. And then here they are with Papa Craig opening their gifts!

Back in the saddle again

It has been a while since I have posted. Since my last blog in September we have bought a new house and lived with my mom for 2 months! It has been a crazy time! I am finally off my crutches from my broken foot(after 4 months) and I have started a new job!
Here are some pix to recap the last 3 months!

Go Dawgs!

Here is Hank and his Dad celebrating the winning touchdown on Saturday by the Bull dogs! Hank is learning to say "touchdown" and hold his hands up. He also learned to carry my purse around and say "bye"---his daddy loved that!

Birthday Bash!!

Kelly and I celebrated our birthdays this week! Kelly turned 32 on the 17th and I was 28 yesterday(19th)! I can not believe that I am 28! It seems like yesterday I was graduating from highschool. Last night we went to Provino's in Chattanooga where I got to eat for free--yeah me! Heidi, Justin and River joined us--Justin's birthday was the 4th! And Mom and Pops footed the bill! We had a great time and the kids enjoyed what was supposed to have been my icecream!

Family Time!

Here I am with my sisters Heidi, Brittney and Brandy. We are at my Dads, watching football, eating and letting the kids run wild!! We had a great time!
Go Dawgs, Roll Tide!!

Soccer Stars!

Here is Eden and her cousins, Emma and Lily, at their soccer game this weekend. Eden and Lily really love playing together on the same team! Go Falcons!

I created a Slide Show! Check it out!

Little Man in a Big Bucket!

Here is the advertisement that ran in the USA Today back in July and August! That is my kid in that bucket!!

A Look Back...

Five years ago, this week, I found out that I was pregnant with my most precious posession...my little EdiBug! I can't believe that what started out as a great romance has flourished into this wonderful family that is built around my and Kelly's love for each other. Kelly has given me two beautiful children and a wonderful life!

Here are some pictures from the past of EdiBug and the Goob. Aren't they the most beautiful children you have ever seen. This family of mine is by far my most greatest accomplishment. I don't think I could have done any better!

Soccer Days

Well I am a Soccer Mom now! Here are some pictures of Eden and her cousin Lily playing soccer! Eden really likes it but has a hard time with her attention span. She would often sit in the middle of the field and pick at the grass or turn around and yell at her neighboring friends! She looks really cute in her shoes and soccer socks! Eden may be unattentive at times but she has the idea of the game. She has her first game on Saturday the 9th! Hank enjoyed being at the field as well!

Visit with the Great-Grandparents

Almost everyone knows that I injured my foot at the lake back in July, well since having my surgery on August 1st I have had lots of help. My Grandparents(AKA Joan and Bob)from Alabama came to visit and help for several days. They were a true blessing from God! I am on crutches, have been since July and will be until November, so I am pretty much no help to my children and poor Kelly! Everyone has been such troopers and great help, I could not ask for a more loving and caring family!
These are photos of Hank with Joan and Bob! He grew so attached and so did they(especially Bob)! It was so nice to visit with my grandparents and to see them interact with my children, their great-grandchildren, in this glorious way. Love to all of you--you truely are a blessing!

The Bugs First Day of Pre-K

Today was Eden's first day of Pre-K! Although she has always gone to daycare and has been considered 'in school' it was a special occasion. I was especially sad since she is my baby girl and this day marks the beginning of her education which will come all too soon to an end in 13 short years. She loves going to school and playing and learning with all of her friends, she is a very social child and I believe we would be depriving her if we didn't allow her to go. My baby Bug is a big girl now!!
