Hooray for Luke's 1st Birthday!

 Luke is now officially 1!

 He had a football theme party. Luke loves to play with balls and he is ready to play anytime!

 We had game food. We also had sweet BBQ meatballs(not shown). It was delicious!

I found this awesome personalized banner on the Internet. Isn't it nice?!

Week in Review...

So I know that I'm a little late but I think by now you must be used to it! Ha ha! 

Angie and Dale got married on October 1st at a small white church in Byron,Ga. Can you believe it's already been one week since then?! 

It was so sweet to see Angie and Dale so happy and in so love. The wedding was short and sweet. Everything was really beautifully decorated too. The boys also enjoyed the wedding cake and groom cake.  yum!

A toast to love.

It was very special to be part of this very much anticipated day. We are so very happy for Angie and Dale Lancaster!

The night of the wedding William started having stomach cramps, and felt so tired that he even skipped dinner(not at all like Will!). Later in the evening William was the sickest I've ever seen him. Just to put it this way, it was not pretty. We had to move his bed to the living room just to keep him close to our bedroom. I slept on our couch for 2 days just to keep him close to me. He says he had fun relaxing, writing on his bible activity book, reading books and watching TV all day long. Ha!

The cramps and vomiting only lasted a 24 hour period. So far, everyone has stayed healthy.Well, everyone but Luke. He's been having diarreah for quite some time now. Thankfully staying a few days on a strict diet of only carbs, oatmeal and yogurt has helped him improve. On Wednedsday we will take him to a GI pediatrician. His pediatrician did many stool cultures but found nothing. I'm hoping that everything will turn out fine and nothing to be too concerned about.


Being stuck in the house for 5 days isn't the definition of sanity for me. So friday afternoon we packed up the kids and headed to a corn maze that's really close our house. The boys had so much fun. They ate peach ice cream, walked through the corn maze and enjoyed the hayrack ride.

This trip was so relaxing and peaceful. We can't wait to go pumpkin picking next!

11 months old

 October 13,2010 was the day that my life changed all over again. Luke came into our world as sweet and amazing as he could be. I can still remember watching my three little boys in the delivery room close together. It was much more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. Now, almost one year later, Luke is still so very sweet and the most amazing little baby ever!

Georgia Game

My littlest Georgia fan! 

You probably recognize this Georgia jersey. Both of his older brothers wore it back when they were babies.

Will has been very interested in sports lately that he begged me to let him stay up until 9 p.m. to watch the game. I was so glad I did. He watched Georgia score their first touchdown!
