Auburn and Alligators

This past Wednesday, we headed to Mobile, Alabama for Amber and David's wedding. We made a detour on the way and stopped by Auburn! It was so good to be in God's country again!!!HA!:-) We ate lunch, walked around campus, stocked up on new Auburn gear and of course took some pictures!!!!:-)

We got to Amber and David's house right in time for dinner! We were so happy to be there and the kids were super excited! We had a WONDERFUL weekend!

On Thursday, we went to Alligator Alley. I have to admit, I was spooked out at first, but it was a pretty cool place. If you like Alligator's, this is the place to go!

This is just a small amount of alligators that we saw, there over 200!

Daniel, Amber, Drew and David checking out the baby alligators.

checking out the gators

This is Captain Crunch! HA! I don't want to know where he got his name from!!!!

Yes, this man was in the fence feeding the alligators! CRAZY!!!!

David and Drew

Drew and Amber holding an alligator! Grace Anne would not even get near it!

As you can tell we had a great time and the wedding festivities had not even started yet!!!

Check back later for more pictures of our weekend in Bama.:-)

Anniversary

Daniel and I celebrated 11 years of marriage on Saturday. God has blessed our marriage more than we could have ever imagined! During our journey, we have encounter both good and bad times, but through it all, God has been faithful!
I have to admit that 11 years ago, if you asked me what our life would look like in 2010, my answer would not be anywhere close! My answer would have been all about me and what I wanted. I am so glad that God is in control and knows the plans for our life. His plans are so much bigger and better than mine!:-)
Daniel, I look forward to many more years together and can't wait to see what else God has in store for us. I love you so much and I am so proud to be your wife!!!!

Here is a picture of us on our Anniversary enjoying the day together doing something that we both love! College Football!!! We had so much fun cheering on the Gamecocks, but don't worry, we have not converted, we still bleed Orange and Blue!!! WAR EAGLE!!!!:-)

Football Family Night!!!!

We FINALLY got around to having another "theme" family night!

We started off our Football Family Night by going outside and playing a little football!

This little fellow was ILL, he fell asleep and he woke up on the wrong side of the couch!!!HA! Instead of playing football, he spent his time pouting inside.

Daniel and our future Auburn Cheerleader!

For dinner we had good ole football food......Hotdogs and Nachos!

and dessert was Football shaped brownies and Reese footballs!

We ended out night by watching "Little Gaints"!!!

Georgia on my mind.......

For months we have had plans to go to Augusta, GA on Saturday Sept. 4th to meet David and Amber for dinner. David had a golf tournament there and Amber was going to join him. We were so excited that they were going to be 2 hours away from us!
Daniel and I decided last minute to change our plans and turn our little day trip into an over night trip! Friday afternoon we told the kids that we were packing our clothes and heading to Georgia and stay in a hotel. Staying in a hotel to our kids is like going to Disney World! HA! They were so excited!
We were having so much fun enjoying ourselves that I did not even think about taking pictures until Saturday! :-)

Here are the kids on Saturday morning. They were ready for a fun day shopping!

Not sure what Grace Anne was doing here?

Yes, we are suckers for Build-A-Bear!:-)

And finally, here are the kids with David and Amber. They were the whole reason we were in Georgia in the first place! HA! They meet us a PF Changs for dinner. The kids were super excited to see them!

The best part is that we get to see them again in 2 1/2 weeks at their wedding!!!! YAY! We can't wait to share their special day with them. Daniel will be officiating the wedding and Grace Anne and Drew will be the flower girl and ring bearer.

I have to admit that it was so nice to get away for a night, we need to do that more often!:-)
