WAR EAGLE!

Looking good so far! Auburn had another great win on Saturday night - always nice when the 'ole ball coach has a "L" for the week and Auburn has a "W"!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO DAD!

Happy Birthday to the best Dad in the world!


I'm so thankful for you and your testimony to our family. You have shown us what a man of God looks like. And, you are living it out everyday in Guatemala sharing God's love with people there. Thanks for "not growing weary in doing well."

We love you!

AUBURN GAME WEEKEND

We had a great weekend away. First we met my brother, Stephen, for dinner. (Sorry - no pics! How did we manage that??) Then, we met Tommy and Christi and Sean in Pine Mountain where we spent the night. After breakfast at Callaway Gardens, we all headed over to Auburn University for Game Day and to meet Jim and Christy for the game.

We tailgated and were able to catch up since it had been a while since we had all seen each other. Then, headed up to the stadium for the game. The game was a first for Christy and Mike so we enjoyed the pre-game shows and found our seats - Row 1, right on the field!

What an experience to be back at a football game and enjoy all the Game Day festivities!

We were also able to go to our old church on Sunday and see some old friends. Then, Sunday afternoon, Mike and Tom re-lived the "Glory Days" at Ft. Benning. Of course, they did the obstacle courses, ropes, and a memory run up Cardiac Hill.

We said "good-bye" to them on Sunday night and then early Monday morning headed up to Scottsboro, AL to see Miriam's cousins at their camp. We were able to spend a few days there enjoying the camp and our time with them. Wednesday morning, we packed up for our L-O-N-G 9 hour trip home.

It was a fun trip, lots going on, enjoyed seeing lots of friends and old places...but we were glad to be home and see Polly and Blue!

It's that time again...

FOOTBALL SEASON!!

We are entering one of my favorite seasons of the year - Fall and Football. Not only do I love watching football, especially my Auburn Tigers, but there is always a promise of cooler weather, leaves changing into pretty colors, and sweaters, fleeces, and down vests! Now, don't get me wrong, I can hang at the beach and lake with the best of you...and this girl REALLY enjoys having a tan...but there is just something about that cool weather.

Can't wait to see the eagle fly around that stadium on Saturday afternoon!

WAAAAARRRRR EAGLE!

And for those of you who still wonder why Auburn has a tiger, Aubie, as our mascot and has the eagle, War Eagle, at the game too - see here.
