Trent and Hunter

Trent had spend the night company on Saturday night. Hunter McCook is one of Trent's very good friends. He and Trent watched Football until midnight. Trent is playing football again this year and so far his team has not lost. We sure hope that continues. Here is a picture of the two of them on Sunday Morning. They were not excited that I asked for a picture.

Life is Really BUSY!!!!!!

It has really been a very busy time for all of us the last couple of weeks. Here is a great picture of Trent reading to Addison for her homework this past week. Doug and I were getting home late that day because of a meeting at school. As usual we were trying to get dinner and homework done as fast as we could. Addison was waiting on one of us to get her 1st grad reader out and let her ready to one of us, when I realized that Trent had told her that he would do it, I had to get the camera. As all siblings do, there is often alot of dispute between Trent and Addison. However here is a great picture that captures that they really do love one another. I am very thankful for both of them. They are my LIFE!!!!!!

Trent and Baseball

I love this picture of Trent. Trent and Addison were at the Park on day with Hailey, the babysitter. Hailey's brother Logan was there playing Baseball with Trent. I really think this picture is a great one.

MOST FAVORITE PICTURE

This is one of my favorite pictures of Trent and Addison. This picture was taken in the back yard several years ago. Trent and Addison were very sweet back then to each other. Now days they argue more than anything as all brothers and sisters do!!!!!

Swimming with Daddy

Trent and Addison love to swim. Doug and the kids were really enjoying the afternoon in the pool. They both are very good in the water now and love to jump right in and try and push daddy in under water in the pool.

Brady

Here is our family pet - "BRADY". Brady was a Christmas present for Trent and Addison Christmas 2006. He is quite a handful but apparently we all love him. He looks alot like Doug's dog before we were married "Bandit". Brady is a black and white Cocker Spaniel and has added much to the family.

Cousins

Trent and Addison's cousins are in Germany for two years. Here is a picture all Trent and Addison with Meredith, Evan and Ethan. This picture was taken in late July while we visited Doug's Parents in Tennessess before his sister and her family left. Trent and Addison loves these cousins more than ever!!! You will see that they all have matching T-Shirts on that were Nana's idea.

Weekends

The weekends are the favorite times that we have. Lazy Saturdays the the family favorites. Usually the family has breakfast then we all spend a few hours doing something fun at home. Our family enjoys being at home with each other. We have just gone almost a week with no internet at home and that of course was a challenge for us all. Addison said that she would live without internet, but I think that Doug, Trent and I really missed it for the week. Trent is most excited about College Football starting up. He really loves watching the games on the weekends. Addison and Doug usually take a nap while Trent and I watch the games. The Fall weather seems like it is on the way and we all love that. Trent had his first football game on Thursday, and they won. Trent did a great job and was put against on the the biggest players on the other team. We are looking forward to Doug grilling tonight, that is a family favorite.

Addison and Taylor

Here is Addison and her best little girl friend Taylor at Tripp't Birthday party this summer. The two of these girls are best buddies in first grade. They play all the time together and certainly were enjoying themselves this summer day.

6th Grade Homework

Trent is an excellent student. Here he is doing his homework after a full day of school and football practice. With his good looks and brains, " OH THE PLACES THAT HE WILL GO". Trent is really starting to enjoy the computer, every chance he gets he is online playing a game with his friends from school. It is hard to believe that at 11, the computer is his favorite thing, WOW what a digital world we live in these days.

First Grade Field Trip

Today was very exciting in First Grade. Addison and her class took a field trip to Build-a-Bear Workshop in the Augusta Mall. They had a great time and Addison decided to get a Cheetah for her animal. Apparently the decision was for her love of "The Cheetah Girls" Disney show that she loves to watch. Here is a picture of the duo, and clearly the animal is already loved.

Our Pride and Joy!!

Here are our beautiful children. This picture was taken in November of 2007, it is one of my favorites. Trent is quite the grown up little man and Addison is a wonderful little sister.

Blogging

It seems like such a good idea to post things that are happening in your family on the web for friends and family to visit and keep up with the events that are going on. We will try this blog idea and see how it goes.
