SHOPPING!!!!!

12:30 A.M. on Friday, November 28...... my mom, Tegan, and Carley headed to Northpoint Mall in Alpharetta, GA to go shopping. What a blast we had--and I am not being sarcastic--. It started out rough for Tegan because she had already fallen asleep at the house then we got her up to get in the car....but after about 30 minutes of fighting to go back to sleep she finally dozed off and slept the entire time we were there. Mom and I shopped and shopped all day until lunch....boy were our feet hurting. The girls did awesome though, like I said Tegan slept all day until about 11:30 and Carley of course slept a lot. We can't wait for next year to hopefully do it again!!!

A Quarter of A Century

November 10, 2008 marked a milestone in Morgan's life. It was her 25th birthday!!! She had a wonderful day, as she got to go shopping with her mom and 2 girls. Terrel had to be out of town from saturday the 8th through thursday the 13th so he wasn't able to be here and was very upset he wasn't able to be here with me. He took me out Friday night to one of my fav restaurants JAlexanders and to get ice cream at Cold Stone.Then on Saturday night, my parents and brother, Bryce, and I went to eat at Houston's here in Atlanta...it was REALLY good!!! When we got back to our apt. on Friday night, my parents and brother, Bryce, Tegan, and Carley were there to surprise me with a party. Boy was I surprised!!! They totally caught me off guard. It was a fun party. Tegan loved it the most :):)

Blessing Day

***pictures of Carley in her blessing dress***

On November 2, 2008 Carley was blessed at church by Terrel. Standing in the circle were my dad, my brother, Bryce, and 2 members of the bishopric. This was such a special day for our family, as this is just the start of many wonderful things to come for Carley as well as the rest of us. Thank you to my Nanny(Carley & Tegan's great-grandma) and my cousin Whitney for making the effort to come up for this special day. We appreciate all those who participated in the blessing and for those in our family who were there. **Pics to come soon**

BOO!!!

Happy Halloween 2008!! We went trick-or-treating tonight with some friends from church who invited us to go....thanks Jen and James!!! We had a great time, and the neighborhood we went in was AMAZING!!!!! The people who live in this neighborhood decorate their houses for Halloween more than they do for Christmas.... there were thousands of people trick-or-treating in this one neighborhood. People were parked for miles away and there were cops directing traffic, etc. Tegan had a blast and was so stinkin' cute in her duck costume. Terrel & I were able to take Tegan by herself and spend some quality time with just her....thanks Mom & Dad for keeping Carley. We had a blast and hope you all had a very safe and happy Halloween as well!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD!!!

My dad's birthday was October 22. He turned the BIG 50!!! We took him to brunch the day before b/c he was going to be out of town on his actual birthday. When he got back in on Saturday, we had him a small surprise party(pics coming soon). I can't believe he's 50....still looks so young though!! Happy Birthday to a wonderful father and PaPa!!!!

Aquarium with Daddy

We went to the GA Aquarium again..but this time Terrel went too!!! Tegan had an extremely good time again and we were so happy to enjoy a fun day as a family!!! It's so fun to see Tegan's face when she sees something so exciting... it makes us so happy to see her so happy and enjoying herself. We wanted to spend the day and do something fun for Tegan, b/c she was having a little bit of a hard time adjusting to Carley, so we took her to the aquarium. We had a great time and can't wait to go back again!!!
