MLK Weekend






Sorry it has been so long since my last post. We have been out of town. We went to Jacksonville for the weekend and took Bo on his first camping trip. We had a blast biking around the beach, visiting the ocean, riding the ferry boat, visiting Shelley and the kids, and of course the Jacksoville Zoo (which by the way, puts the Atlanta Zoo to shame) We also were in town for a wedding which was absolutely beautiful! Man, I'm tired just listing the things we did, so you can imagine how tired we were from doing all of this. Enjoy the pics!!!

That's Wild

This is our theme for the day. When I picked Bo up from school today, his teachers were laughing so hard they could barely tell me how funny he had been all day. His phrase for the day at school was "that's wild". If you know Bo well, then you know that when he speaks he has so much gusto in his little voice.....it's hillarious. He also decided to show his teachers and attempt to teach his classmates how to do a flip. Yes, that's right a flip. When he does his flip, you better clap for him when he's done or he will be quick to tell you......."clap for me, clap for me please" Ryan and I are not really sure how he learned to do this. One day, he just put his head on the ground between his legs and flipped his body straight over. Of course he thinks it's hillarious and will do it over and over until we make him stop....and yes, grandma is afraid that he is going to break his neck-it scares her half to death. That was our day in a nutshell. However, I did cook once again. I made a chicken pot pie and it was pretty good....easy to make, that is what really counts. We will see what tomorrow brings:)

Just Chillin'



These were taken mostly because Bo kept saying, "Mommy, take a picture please"......

Dinner Time



My New Year's resolution was to learn to cook. I am actually enjoying this ..(i think). Tonight we had honey glazed salmon, couscous, and green beans ( you know that I have to compete with Jennifer's, Paula Dean meal). The salmon was actually a hit for Bo, he cleared his entire plate. The couscous was a hit for Ryan, so I guess everyone had their favorite part. I, of course enjoyed it all....well, I mean, I do love food you know! After dinner we gave Bo some animal cookies for dessert. While he was eating one of his cookies, he told us he was eating a hippopotamus and that he was going to eat his head off first. He said "hippopotamus" just as plain as day......he never ceases to amaze us.

Santa's Visit 2006







Santa's visit to our house this year was BIG. As you can see, Bo was thrilled with his tent, basketball goal and horsey on a stick. Santa also left a train table......a household favorite. We had a fun day celebrating Jesus' birthday.

Here We Go!


I am very excited about this! As most of you know, I am somewhat computer challenged, so this is a very big deal. So many people are always asking me to send pictures of Bo but I just didn't really know how, so I thought this would be an excellent way for everyone to keep up with us. This will be my online scrapbook....I hope. So, as we start this new year (2007) be patient as I learn the ropes of the blogging world!!!!
