A Baby's First Christmas

Merry Christmas!

Well, ya comin'?

Where to?
To the North Pole, of course! This is the Polar Express!



Choo-choo!




The thing about trains...it doesn't matter where they're going. What matters is deciding to get on.




Seeing is believing, but sometimes the most real things in the world are the things we can't see.

Tide Fan, Grizz Man

This weekend our friends Jody and Emmy came to visit us with their baby boy that is just 10 days younger than Asher. They recently moved back from Missoula, Montana to Tuscaloosa! Originally Crimson Tide fans they also developed a liking for the Grizzlies from The University of Montana while living in Missoula.




Friday night, the Grizzlies matched up against the Villanova Wildcats right here in Chattanooga! Naturally, our friends had to drive up to see us and take us to the game. We had a great time with our friends from Tuscaloosa who, oddly enough we actually met in Rexburg. We are so happy that they have returned to The South and hope to spend more time with them in the near future.

Season's Greetings

We are in the midst of my favorite time of year!

I love Fall for so many reasons. Alabama Football, Halloween costumes and candy corn, Scorpio birthdays, my sister's dining table center pieces, corn bread dressing, Blue Bell Peppermint Ice Cream and preparations for Santa!

This year we have so much to be grateful for. Austin graduated from The University of Alabama with an MBA and started a job as an Auditor for Decosimo in Chattanooga, TN.

Rocky has really filled out. We were worried that he might be a skinny kid forever but he is a full sized Boxer now.

I bid farewell to my full time job in Birmingham and am enjoying being a mom to our newest addition Asher Dean. He is the most beautiful baby and so photogenic (evidenced by this blog). Everything is brand new to our baby and it reminds us to stop and be thankful as well. Being parents is even more difficult than we could have ever imagined but it is an experience that is well worth the struggle.

Our little family is full of so much love. We are grateful to all our friends and family for supporting us on our journey. Happy holidays and Roll Tide!
