Birthday fun!


My birthday dinner at Fiesta Mexicana. Singing to me in Spanish, music to my ears!!


I really don't feel 39!

After dinner we headed next door to Kroger where Greg had this cake waiting for us. Happy 39th Birthday, Love G,J, A,A ( Greg, Jerod, Alex, Annie)



Me and my cake! My honey is so thoughtful!


Annie in the Disney Store, what a cute Nemo she makes!


She really liked being Mini Mouse!


Annie with MamaSay


My precious parents! Aren't they cute?


YumYum!


My presents from Amy, my roommate in college.



This is my roomy, Amy. How fun to be close to her again!

Jer, Alex, and Annie with Amy's children, Virginia and James.


Jerod, the serious one. If you know Jerod, you know I am KIDDING!!!


Alex, our thinker. HA!!


Annie, the calm one!

Annie thought this was an orange apple on her shirt. Whew, we have a lot of work to do!



Jerod is the second one from the left. We won this game again. We are now undefeated and they are doing very well!


Jerod on the run. He is doing a great job, there just aren't a lot of fun pictures of the offense!
Skip down 4 pictures and then scroll up. I still can't get the order correct. Sorry! ;o}

I guess this is what they were worried about! He didn't make the tackle, but he was OH sooo close! Maybe next time! I know this is blurry, but it is really hard to take pictures when you are yelling, "GET HIM, GET HIM!!"


Alex is proving to be quite quick at times!


Well, Goliath was big, and YES he is lifting Alex off of the ground here, but..... big isn't EVERYTHING!!

Okay so remember the giant in the first game? Here he is again. Same guy, against my little man. They started off the game with only one guy blocking Alex and then they added another guy. Hmm... you think they were worried?

This is Alex getting advice from "Honey" (Grandfather)If you are noticing that he is wearing a DUKE shirt, we got it for free and we ONLY let him have it because he was going to wear it under his football jersey! :o) He is a TARHEEL fan and doesn't really know that he shouldn't like DUKE! So innocent!

Hi friends!!
We have had a great past few days! It started off with a wonderful celebration of my birthday on on the 1st! Thanks to all of you who sent me birthday wishes and for those of you who didn't, you are off the hook, because I am sure I didn't send you one either! :o) We ate at our favorite Mexican restaurant and they sang to me in Spanish. It was fun! Then I spent some time with one of my roommates in college and she blessed me with my favorite treat, Krispy Kreme doughnuts! We also had fun picking out some pumpkins and taking pictures!
Then my parents arrived on Friday and we enjoyed seeing them and they enjoyed seeing the boy's game on Saturday. We celebrated my birthday some more and Annie learned what Halloween was all about. ( The dressing up part that is!) We went to the Disney Store and she had fun trying on some costumes. Annie is very Americanized now! VERY!! We plan on attending every fall festival and candy give-away that we can find! I think I might dress up this year too! :o)
So we have really had a good weekend and are loving the fall weather that has started to come this way! I love this time of year, it is my FAVORITE time. Annie ran up to me the other day and showed me the first leaf that had fallen. She had never seen a leaf that had changed colors before. We are sure to experience many firsts over the next few months! How exciting!!
