Zoo Atlanta

On Thanksgiving Weekend Madeline and I headed to Zoo Atlanta with Uncle Kevin. We had a wonderful time!! The weather was perfect!

Here we are on the train. We didn't realize it didn't go all the way around the Zoo so that was a bit disappointing.

Thanksgiving

I am happy to say with this post, I am current! I have been very negligent in posting lately.

Our Thanksgiving was wonderful! We spent time at Mark's parents' house and then headed off to my parents' house. Lots of tasty food!

We have so much to be thankful for. I am trying to be aware and be grateful for things, big and small and turn annoyances into thanks. Like when my daughter is taking off her diaper, I am thankful to have a daughter and I am thankful she is able to take off her diaper.

Here are Grammy and Boompie with grandkids






Lots of blue eyes...

Thanks be to God for his bountiful love!

Visting Grammary

Last week we headed for a long weekend to visit Mark's grandmother at Compass Lake in Florida. We hadn't seen Grammary in awhile plus she can't come for Thanksgiving or Christmas so we decided to visit her! We had a great time!

It was a welcome break from being at home. Madeline lately has been taking off her clothes and diapers in the crib and making messes. I could handle that annoyance. But then she started climbing out of her crib. This has worried me endlessly. She hasn't done it in 2 weeks so maybe the fascination is over. I hope so!

So the change of scenery did all of us well and restored some of my sanity. Madeline was all over the place, entertaining us endlessly, I am sure Grammary slept for awhile after we left! Friday night we headed into Panama City for the Christmas Celebration.


Dancing! One of our favorite things!

I love these photos of the two of them reading together.
