S'mores!

.winter.

Snuggin' by the fire, making s'mores with our Lovins...it's surprisingly cold for Savannah, but it's not bothering us...we're getting plenty of use out of our little fire pit! Kai & her friends were sword fighting, someone mentioned the 3 musketeers and...voila! .warmth. She doesn't make a move without Daddy. They're attached at the hip...

Veteran's Day

In an effort to catch up...here is Wed., Thurs. & Friday's happenings from last week! Wednesday, really got going when we grabbed a bite w/Leslie & Nicole @ Houlihans, then Fred snuck away so that he could make the Veteran's Day Celebration @ Ryan's school! As much as I love to be there for all the kids performances, this one kind of seemed appropriate for Ryan & Daddy to share together!

Actually behaving...lol Getting ready to go on stage... 1st Graders performing, America the Beautiful.

.Thursday-Veteran's Day.

While our Veteran was out playing a round of golf. The Lovins & I met up with Brookie for some lunch & goofin' around!

Must be some good ice cream, Cohen!?

This pic would be even more adorable, if we actually knew who that kis was!?

LMAO

.karate kid.

.off to Forsyth.

Kai was totally into her new book, she picked up at B&N!

.Friday-Grillen Out.

With the guys trickling in from Afghanistan, we decided to cook out with a few of Fred's work buddies & a couple of our neighbors.

I'm going to assume our back porch light was out and hope that explains why my husband is wearing this...lol

Gettin' wild!

A couple of the guys chowing down on some yummy ribs!

But, the cupcakes were where it's at...

Where's your cupcake, Ava!?

After cooking a delicious dinner, Fred finally got a chance to relax.

Snuggin' the Lambie!

So, to wrap things up...I really want to thank all the Veteran's, past & present for all they've done & all they continue to do in order to protect our freedoms! And to our friends in the 3ID...Welcome Home, we've missed you!

Fun at the Fair!

It's clear that I'm lagging! LOL But, I promise I'm really trying to stay on top of the blogging. However, we packed a lot into last weekend...followed by a just as busy week, which equals...no time for blogging. So in an effort to wrap up last weekends events...here is the Coastal Empire Fair. We headed over, after Kara's shower on Sunday. Fred & the kids were all about the rides...but I was there for the FOOD! ;]

.a daddy sized dog..burgers for the Ry Guy.After a quick lunch...we headed off to the rides. She loved the motorcycles...

Ry, showing off...

Carefully navigating the 'Fun House'!

...he's thinking it looked way easier in Grease!

Up, up & away...

.bumper cars.

Then it was off to the races...

...and they're off! Quick little suckers...

Definitely not the fastest breed of pig...

.time for the swings.

Kai & Fred are on there some where...

.Daddy & the Lovins.

[waiting on the Haunted House]

Which Lambie & Ryan were not a fan of...

It was getting pretty chilly, so Daddy & the big kids squeezed in a few more rides and Lambie & I, snuck off for some goodies!

Mmm...lemonade & popcorn.

Then we headed to the 'babysitter' to pick up the kids prizes that they won earlier...Ugh, WHERE are we going to put these things!?
