Fall and Fun

To the only reader I have at the time: Yes, Sept. 4th sure was a long time ago. A lot has happened but I haven't started a habit of blogging...so I forget. I think it's less important or not too funny. The month of October flew by. General and I did a little babysitting for the first time in forever. Nothing too big, just our nieces. We had fun...I was in charge of feeding and changing diapers while General did the playing. We also got to celebrate Libby's (our oldest niece) 3rd birthday!
The birthday girl with a BIG smile!

Then there was Halloween. We were party poopers this year. We didn't dress up, and we didn't hand out candy! However, we did go to the church's fall festival on Wednesday before Halloween. I guess that counts. I forgot to take a camera, and I'm sure ppl would have thought I was crazy just taking pictures of random ppl. I did take a few pictures of my favorite little fella in a sunflower field.
Meet Cash. The cutest blue eyed 10 month old baby buddy. While his mom and dad drove us to the sunflower field we sat in the back and had a little photo session.


It didn't take the little man long to get tired and sleepy after a long day of fun!

That's that kind of fun we've been having lately. Hopefully I'll get better at updating a little sooner next time!

Harder then I thought

Keeping up with a blog is a little harder than I expected. I always thought I had all these great ideas of what I would blog about. As much as I thought I took a lot of pictures, I don't have much documentation of the things the General and I have been doing lately.

Since my last post, we enjoyed a weekend at the lake with my family. I took a trip to Auburn for a seminar for a weekend. I'm trying to become a little more organized with our life. Maybe becoming a planner is a better word. I've started planning our meals weekly/bi weekly. We've actually been sticking to it! It works way better when going to the grocery store too. We've also been going to the gym atleast 3 days a week for the past 3 weeks. (That's a big deal for us!) We haven't really started seeing great results yet...but we're getting there!

Hopefully I'll get a little better with updating the blog and posting pictures.

Sweet Bailey

I finally got excited about creating my own blog, and of course now I don't have those "Oh, I should blog about that" kind of happenings these days. We have no kids yet, none along the way either, we don't have a cutesy little house we're decorating, we don't live on a farm yet, I haven't taken too many pictures the past few days, BUT we do have the cutest chocolate Labaraner (mixed Lab & Weimaraner) named Bailey. He lives inside with us, and he's spoiled rotten. He'll be 3 in October. He's finally growing out of his puppy stage. When he was younger the General decided (on 2 occasions) to leave Bailey out for a "test." Just a couple of hours...everything out of sight...surely Bailey would do good. General came home to the legs chewed off his sunglasses one time and a bag of grits all over the kitchen another time. Needless to say, he stayed in his pen everytime we left...until the past two days. I decided Monday morning when I left for work Bailey would get to stay out of his pen for the day. I picked up all the shoes and shut the doors to every room except the bedroom (where he usually likes to look out the window). He knows when I put my shoes on in the morning it's time to get in his pen. So like every other morning Bailey got in his pen...but I didn't close the door. I was worried about him all day. I was pretty sure he was going to be good though. General called me when he got home to inform me our sweet Bailey was sitting in his pen when he walked in the door! I'm pretty convinced the silly dog sat in his pen the entire day with the door open. We tried it again this morning...and the same outcome. Of course, I would love to have a little camera on the little stinker during the day to see if he really just hangs out in the pen. Obviously he's learned...or that's all he really knows. I'm rather proud!


This is our sweet Bailey when he was just a few months old. He was quite the charmer.
(please over look the floor vent in the picture...those were the college days)


This is our sweet Bailey these days. That's one of his favorite spots in the house...other than his pen.



You can see why we love this little stinker so much!



He's so sweet and innocent...most days!

It's a Start

It's finally here... {Two} P's in a Pod.

I'm actually kinda of sad my first blog is rather lame, but it is a start! I finally thought of a "cute" header. Now I'm working on a little design and figuring out how/where to post things.
