Just Another Day In The Life of a Superhero.....

Josh posted this on his fb page the other day, but it was too cute not to put it on here too.

Even Batman has to keep up on his emails.....

100th Day of School!

Collin made it to his first 100th day of school!  They had a cookie cake and made little snack bags with 100 things in them.  He also made a headband and necklace (which he is wearing in the pic) that said, "I am 100 Days Smarter").

Happy 10th Birthday Lexi!!

Our sweet Lexi turned 10 today!  Hard to believe 10 years have almost gone by since we first laid eyes on our sweet girl.  A lot of work goes into having a pet, but I couldn't picture our little family any other way.  She is definitely a great dog and Collin & Carter love her too.  She runs around and plays with them all the time, but definitely tries to stay out of the way when they are swordfighting, etc.  Looking back at these pictures that first year we had her definitely made me smile.  She is a loyal and faithful friend.  We love you Lexi Lou!!

Bye Uncle Joe :-(

Uncle Joe left to go back to West Virginia today for work.  We were sad to see him go, but so glad we were able to spend time/have fun with him over the holidays.  We went to have lunch with daddy in Fayetteville before taking Joe to the airport.  On our way to the airport, Collin says from the backseat, "Mom, I wish Uncle Joe's flight would get cancelled so he could just stay here."  I'm sure that killed Uncle Joe to hear, but the boys just love him so much.  We dropped him off and the boys were yelling, "We Love You Uncle Joe!!!" out the window as he walked away. :-)

Fall Family Pictures

We had our annual family pics taken in October by my wonderful friend, Katie Cole, with Katie Cole Photography.  Loved the setting and beautiful colors! 
 (sorry katie....i was going to use the watermarked images, but i can't get the cd to work...)









Hudson insisted on wearing the sunglasses. :-)


All the boys. :-)




Love this one!












NYE 2012

We had a fun New Years Eve with some of our closest friends.  We had a great time eating, hanging out, laughing and playing Taboo.  Thanks to the Hipps for hosting!  We ended the night around 10:00 and headed home to ring in the New Year.  The boys actually stayed up for the ball drop this year, so we made a big deal about it so they would be excited. :-)  So thankful for wonderful friends to spend our night with and for all the many blessing 2012 brought.  I just pray that 2013 is even better for us all!  
(Thanks Rachel for remembering your camera and taking these pics!)
The guys....Eric, Josh, Brett & Michael

The girls....Leslie, Me, Jennifer & Rachel

The kiddos (minus Avery)....Gabby, Aubrie, Reagan, Lily, Peter, Carter & Collin

Last Day with the Boxley's

We were sad to see Tim, Julie, Syd and Ethan go.  We had so much fun with them and the boys just loved playing with them.  We went by to wish them farewell.  Maybe next time we can go to Colorado to visit them!
