Washington D.C.

For the second year in a row we have gone on our long journey to Washington D.C., then on to Erie, PA, and finally to Greeneville, TN before heading home to Georgia. We are having the greatest time. We arrived in Erie Monday night. When we woke up this morning everything was covered in snow. It is so beautiful.

Linden's 2nd Birthday and Christmas

December has been such a busy month for us! We love all the time we get to spend with our family and friends. The children are at the perfect age to be so excited about Christmas. Seeing them so excited makes us feel like kids again too. 

Lawson's 3rd Birthday

I can not believe that our little boy is almost three years old. Time has gone by so fast, yet it is hard to remember life without Lawson. He brings us so much joy! We had his birthday party Thursday evening, and it was so much fun. 

 Lawson loved his cake

Now he can help daddy

Pumpkin Carving With The Kings

Last night we decided to carve some pumpkins we had picked from my mom's garden. Jason and Ashley King, some very good friends of ours, decided to bring their pumpkin and join in the fun. It was great!

Savannah

For Labor Day weekend we decided to visit the beautiful city of Savannah, Ga. We met Chris' dad there on Friday. It was so much fun to relax and see the sites. We took the boat out on Saturay, which gave a whole new perspective from the last time I came here. There is so much more to see out in the waterways. My favorite part of our boat trip was seeing the dolphins that played all around. Chris got a little sea sick, but he got over it. On Sunday afternoon we took the kids to the beach at Tybee Island. They had a blast! Our friends Dave and Trisha Welsh from Erie, Pa were visiting family in Florida and decided to come up for Monday. We were so excited to see them and hang out for a few hours. The water got rough after lunch, and I am pretty sure Trisha will not be riding in a boat with us for a while, but we had fun any way. It was a great weekend!
