Welcome to the Future

I got the new Brad Paisley cd a few weeks ago and fell in love with this song right away. After seeing the video today, I just had to share it!!

Christmas in.... August??

So I've been getting into the Christmas spirit lately. I know, I know... it's only AUGUST, but I just couldn't help myself! I had an itch to listen to a little bit of Christmas music last Monday, thinking I'd stop after a couple of songs. But nope! I kept on listening straight through the week. Then last night, McKayla wanted to watch a movie. And you know what she chose?

That's my girl!

McKayla's First Day of School

McKayla started her first day of second grade at First Christian School on August 24th. She and Michael stopped by my house on the way to school. She was SO excited! McKayla could not wait to leave and head to school! Here are a few pictures of her all dressed up for her first day. Isn't she adorable?!

Duke Crazy

Michael loves Duke. No, I mean he LOVES Duke. I didn't quite understand that love until my first visit with him and McKayla to Duke a couple of weeks ago. He can look at a picture and tell you when the picture was taken, the score of the game, and who shot the winning basket. It was fun to watch him get so excited about his team! We went through the Hall of Fame and saw the basketball stadium. After looking for my "first Duke shirt" for about an hour, we ended up getting me one at the mall on the way home! I can't wait to go see my first Duke football game at the end of September!

Go Blue Devils!

Katie's Graduation Party

My cousin, Katie Harris, graduated from Powhatan High School in June 2009. In early August, her aunt and uncle, Kim and David Baisey, hosted a nice celebration cookout for Katie. Here are some pictures of family and friends from the party.

Congratulations, Katie! Good luck!
