This Just Never Gets Old

Well folks, it's January here and you know what that means....time for Bama to win another National Championship.  

This time, the whole family joined in on the fun.

My parents, Leigh Anne, and Michael went left on Saturday and enjoyed a few days in Miami.

I have been to Miami so many times for work and fun, I just decided to stay home and head down on Monday.

Monday night came fast and we headed to the stadium.  It was insane!  There were so many people (mostly over confident Notre Dame fans) outside and inside the stadium

We were pretty high up there, but we still had great seats.

They came out ready to whip some #@*$ and before we knew it , the score looked like......

THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!

This picture pretty much sums up the Notre Dame fans after about 4 minutes into the game.  It was GREAT!  

They really outnumbered us and they honestly thought they were going to win.  

It was a great game and trip.  I never thought it could be better than last year's win against LSU but this one was better!  The team just looked so tough, strong, fast, and played a near perfect game.  

I watched the replay all week during Banks' nap and my favorite quote of the game.

During the half time show, the game day guys were trying to come up with very nice and politically correct explanations for Notre Dame's pathetic 1st half....to which Desmond Howard simply replied

"This is just a good ole fashioned butt whipping"

SO TRUE!!!

Georgia Anne turns 9....and celebrates ALL week!

Georgia turned 9 on January 9th and has literally celebrated all week long!  On her Birthday, she went bowling, to dinner, and got to pick out a new bike.

On Saturday, I took her over to Atlanta to go to the American Girl store.  

Kit and McKenna came too, of course.   

Georgia was such a sport in the morning, going to both markets at Scott's but after lunch it was all about this place.

We cracked up at all of the dolls getting their hair done.

 She was very careful to read the boxes and make her decisions wisely as to how she would spend her money.

After Georgia got her goodies, we went over to the Bistro for dessert. 

Kit and McKenna had their very own seat.  

Georgie got the 3 mini ice cream cones.  

 

We had a great "girls day" and she was such a grown up little girl.  

Georgia decided back in December that her party would be an "Alabama Celebration Party".

She was obviously confident that the Tide would pull off another National Championship.

Lucky for her, she was right and the party was so cute.

Leigh Anne had it at the local dance and gymnastics studio; a large room fully equipped with tumbling mats, balance beams, and a trampoline. 

Daniel and Nana

Banks did not make it, as it was right in the middle of his nap, and I must say I am glad he did not go.  Big kids can play rough!  

Happy Birthday Georgia Anne!

Happy Birthday Weejie!

Today, January 6 is Weejie's (Big Dawg's) 65th Birthday.

Bryan was able to see him today before he left Vicksburg and wish him a Happy Birthday.

We hope you have a wonderful Birthday!

Sweet Cousins

We were in Vicksburg last week and it was so fun for Bank and Lynlee to play together.  Lynlee is 8 months old and is already almost walking!  It will not be long before she is running all over the place keeping up with Banks.  Laura Katherine got Lynlee this adorable wagon and they had a blast pushing it all over the Living Room.

Hugs!

Lynlee even pushed Banks around too!

2 year Stats

I got so busy with Thanksgiving and Christmas, I forgot to post Banks' 2 year stats.  

Height:    35 1/2 inches  (75-90%)

Weight:    26 pounds     (25%)

He got his Flu Shot and got the go ahead to drink 2% milk.  For all practical purposes, he is perfectly healthy  (maybe not always perfectly behaved).  He is so much fun these days and makes me laugh all day every day!
