CJ and Katie's Christmas programs and Office Party

This is what CJ did during his Christmas program. We're sooooooo proud of him!!


Katie's program was very cute!


We took our employees and signifigant others to dinner at the Napa Cafe in Memphis. We had a great time and the food was delicious!!

10 months old

CJ turned 10 months old on Thursday. I haven't taken a catepillar picture yet, but here is a video of him dancing to Christmas music. When it is on, he will immediately crawl to the TV and start dancing. He had tubes put in Friday and is already a different child!!

Christmas Program

Camille had a Christmas program at her school Thursday. She and her friends were acting like reindeer.



She busted me taking a picture of her.

3rd annual flag football game

What a tough group of guys. Clark, Clayton, other dads and friends played the 3rd annual flag football game on Saturday which was FREEZING!! I don't think it mattered, though. They had a great time.

Little ball player

CJ already loves any sports balls. He will get a ball (or any throwable object), toss it and then chase after it. It is so cute.

This is what I found tonight when I went in to check on him.

Fruits of the Spirit

"But the fruits of the spirit are Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness and Self-Control" Camille's AWANA group presented the fruits of the spirt at church Sunday night. Individuals could share a verse they learned.


Camille recited Hebrews 13:5-6 "Be content with what you have for the Lord has said, 'Never will I leave you, never will I forsake you.' So, we say with confidence, the Lord is my Helper."

Then the students served banana splits to celebrate.

Jr. High Ball

The students at the Jr. High had a ball tonight. Of course we didn't know anything about it until 9:00 Thursday night, but I guess that is the life of parents of a Jr. High boy!

Christmas season is here.

Christmas tree decorating!! Look at sweet CJ in the background watching all the action. We didn't put the tree in the den to try to keep the little man away.



In case you were wondering.......we took down wallpaper and haven't quite decided what we want to do with the walls yet.


Our blowup Nativity scene died so Clark and Katie picked out this dog.

Thanksgiving '09

Clark, Camille, CJ and I headed to Jackson for Thanksgiving (Clayton and Katie did Thanksgiving with their mom). Here's Pops hanging with the grandkids!




A couple of rare pictures of me.

We went to my Great Aunt Barbara's for lunch. Oma with CJ and Jennie with Audrey.

Aunt Feather!


That night we went to Aunt Cindy and Uncle Mike's.


CJ loves to look outside.

Sweet Meredith.

Katie's Thanksgiving play

Katie's class had a Thanksgiving play.



She is cleaning the Mayflower on the long journey.

Katie's 10th birthday at the Peabody

Katie turned 10 on November 12th so Clark, CJ and I took 5 of her friends and her to spend the night at the Peabody. CJ and I arrived first so he was checking out the fountain.


The girls were so excited when they arrived.


Getting ready to go to the pool. All the girls love CJ.
