Busy, Tiring, Crazy Couple of Weeks!

It's been a few weeks since I posted, but it seems like longer.  We have been so busy these past weeks.  The main busyness has come from our house being on the market.  We have had showings practically every day for weeks.  Praise the Lord we now have a contract on it!  Just hoping everything goes smoothly so we can close next month and get moved to Georgia.  Speaking of, I'm not sure I've actually written on the blog about Josh's new job.  I think most everyone knows by now, but Josh is the new Director of Football Operations for the University of Georgia.  I know he is going to do an amazing job, and I believe he's excited to be back in coaching.  We couldn't be prouder of him!  Anyway, obviously with that new job we are moving to Georgia…hence the house selling stuff mentioned above.  On top of trying to keep a house completely clean with two young children, we also had the flu in our household a few weeks ago.  Bryant got it first, and then I had it.  It was not fun.  Thankfully Taylor never got it, and my mom came up for several days to help me.  Otherwise I don't know what I would have done!  Because for those who don't remember, I'm also 8 months pregnant. ;)
Anyway, we have survived all of that and managed to do a few fun things this past week.  On Sunday I took the kids to the zoo because it was absolutely beautiful weather!  Then yesterday I took the kids to the McWane Center.  Figured we better take advantage of these great activities while we can!  Anyway, I guess that's about all for now, below are lots of pictures.

 My cutie!
 LOVE!
 Handsome little boy!
 Cutest little Georgia fan!
 Playing dress up with Emily. :)
 The monkey came so close.

 Closest we've ever gotten to the tiger!  Bryant kept talking to him.



 Such a cute giraffe.

 He loves the carousel.
 This goat really wanted some goldfish.
 The sea lion did lots of tricks for us.
 Gotta get every last drop of that ice cream!
 Eating with two spoons is much more efficient.

 Bubble station is always a hit.
 Taylor likes bubbles too.

 Running on the piano.

 The McWane center is fun, but tiring.

Until next time…

Merry Christmas and Jon & Rachel's Wedding!!

We had a great Christmas holiday this year.  Because Josh's brother was getting married on January 2nd, and we would see all of his family then, we just went to Opelika over Christmas.  The kids and I were there from Sunday-Friday.  Josh was only there for a few days.  My sisters Grace and Hillary were both there with their families, but Shelley's family didn't come this year.  So it was so great to see the one's there, but we definitely missed Shelley's fam.  We really didn't do anything too exciting.  Unfortunately it rained pretty much the entire time we were there, which was not very fun for the kids.  But we made the best of it!  Thank goodness for Pops and his constant entertainment.  We did do our annual traditions of going to the Christmas Eve service at our home church.  Then we had a yummy "tasty dainties" dinner and opened presents.  Christmas morning Santa had come and then we did our annual Christmas Dinner at lunchtime.  It was lots of fun.  Then we went home for a few days before heading to Jacksonville Beach, FL for Jon & Rachel's wedding.  The Rehearsal Dinner was New Year's Eve and was beautiful and delicious.  Then the wedding was on January 2nd.  The wedding and reception were absolutely beautiful!  And of course Josh was in the wedding, but so was Bryant.  He was a ring-bearer and did an awesome job!  He's such a good kid.  It was a fun wedding week getting to spend time with friends and family.  I was decent about taking pictures at Christmas, but absolutely horrible at taking pictures during the wedding events.   I guess we were just so busy…and I was honestly exhausted.  So I will share the Christmas pictures I have…and the like two pictures I took at the wedding.  Oops!  Enjoy. :)
