This is what 9 years looks like....

Not too bad.

Sam's Field Day

Competitive, maybe?

Slightly intense?

I'd say so.  He was supposed to run through the string, not jump it!

But I guess it doesn't matter HOW you cross it, just as long as you cross it first!

And he's a team player too.

Kindergarten, here comes Brice!

The most important things of late...

Brian and I celebrated our 9th anniversary.

Sam has developed into quite the 2nd baseman.

Brice has enjoyed his first year of t-ball.

Road Trip!

Brian and I have been in need of a little get-a-way but finding time for that has been nearly impossible.  So, today we decided to take a few hours (about 11-4) and steal away for a little road trip - to Americus, GA.  We had lunch at Little Brothers Bistro, in a portion of the historic Windsor Hotel and walked around downtown a bit, making a stop to see the historic and beautifully restored Rylander theatre.  However, the hi-light of the trip was a tour of Cafe' Campesino, the first 100% free trade coffee roastery in America.  I'll let you read all about it on their website but let me just say that seeing and tasting how a green coffee bean becomes a delicious cup of joe was really cool!  Too bad you can't blog a smell.  Yum-o!!  Don't we look cute in our hairnets?

The Carters visit, Pinewood Derby and BASEBALL!!!

Our fun friends, Todd, JoEllyn, Will and Avery Carter, came for a visit.  Brice and Avery enjoyed a couple movie "dates".  The dads and big boys went to Athens for the Ga vs. Ole Miss basketball game while the moms and little kids went to bounce at Monkey Joe's.

 Our first Pinewood Derby.

 Baseball tryouts and Brice was one excited little boy!  He did GREAT!

 Sam is playing in the Mighty league now.
