Music Midtown




Although this was over a month ago, it really was such a great date out with the Bukers. The weather had finally cooled down, I think the high was 77 that day, and we enjoyed eating a nice dinner before heading to Piedmont Park to see three bands; Cage the Elephant, The Black Keys and Coldplay.

Miscellaneous Shots of the Girls

Lilly's "Sass Face"
Just like her big sister once did, Lilly enjoys putting mom's clean underwear on over her head. In this photo she had 16 pair!
Lilly's first pigtails!
Abbey's first French braid! I was pretty proud since it was also MY first French braid.
The kiddos after a Wednesday night dinner get together.
Abbey is sometimes a little camera shy.
Caught a quick kiss!
I took the girls to Chik-fil-a after they had their hair cut. This was Lilly's first haircut. Notice the hairdresser was able to give them both a braid on the side of their heads :)

Disney On Ice






Pete spoiled two of his girls with front row tickets to see Disney on Ice. Despite the traffic delay, we were still able to enjoy some of the first half and the entire second half. Abbey was entranced! I was also quite entertained, so we are excited to take the whole family next time!

Kinsey Family Farm







When my dad was in town for a visit we took the girls to Kinsey Family Farm. The farm is a combination pumpkin patch with hayride and place to feed farm animals and huge catfish in their pond. We will definitely be returning next year!

Shooting Range






We were able to take my dad out to the shooting range for the "adult" portion of his visit. I had never been out to shoot Pete's shotgun either, and it was quickly apparent that the only person shooting Peter's gun was Peter. However, we had a great time getting our inner red neck on!

Happy Halloween!











Halloween was a busy day for me and the girls. We started out by having a party with the Mom's group up at our clubhouse. Everyone pitches in by bringing food, drinks, crafts for the kids, and decorations. It ends up being two hours of fun, but I am usually exhausted by the time we have cleaned up. Lilly took a long nap, while Abbey and I relaxed, and then it was time to get the kids in their costumes again to go out trick or treating! We probably went to about 15 or 20 houses, and the girls had a great time. Lilly was carried for a lot of it, but she was able to say,"Trick or Treat" and "thank you" most of the time after taking her candy. Abbey took the lead by running from house to house and being the one to ring the doorbell, which I had to keep reminding her to wait for her friends and let them ring the bell too!
