UF vs MSU and a visit to Freeport

For the UF vs MSU game, Terry, Ralph and the whole bunch watched Wil and Elsie for us. Wil and Elsie have so much fun at Grandma's house! They get to play with all the toys, meet the chickens, play on the front end loader, drive the lawnmower, sit and laugh with Joe, eat good home cooking and go to church on Sunday! We missed them while we were in Starkville, but knew they were in good hands and having fun!

Gator Homecoming and Olivia's Birthday

What a fun weekend we just had! We took the kids to their first Homecoming parade-We stayed for most of it! It was a little hot and we didn't want to wear them out too much because that night we took them to Gator Growl. We got together with Jon, Victoria, Kim, and Eric for dinner at our place. Kim babysat for us on Saturday and we were so thankful as we cheered the Gators on to another exciting win. I really enjoyed this game and we also enjoyed having Jake and Kim over afterwards for laughs and long talks! On Sunday we stopped by the Struekens newly renovated (and gorgeous!) house to sing Happy Birthday to Olivia. She turned 3 on Sunday. Olivia and Wil played outside, colored the porch and played with the dogs and a new my little pony scooter.

LSU and Wyatt's first Birthday Party

After enjoying an awesome victory at LSU, Jason and I picked the kids up from Grandma's house and headed to Wes and Kasey's house to sing Happy Birthday to Wyatt and watch him dive into his first birthday cake! I can't believe he is already one! He is still the sweetest baby and I think he enjoyed seeing all of his family! We sure had fun with Wyatt and his entourage! Kasey knows how to throw a party!
