F is for Festival!

This morning we made it to, our now annual trip to, the Roswell Youth Parade & Fall Festival. The kids enjoyed being outside with one another and participating in the fun activities for the day. First we started with a parade through historic Roswell and then headed to the Roswell Area park for some yummy food and fun! Great day to be had by all. Thanks Mimi & Joe for the extra eyes and hands, since Brian has made me a football widow.

F is for Field Trip

A couple of Fridays ago Gabriella went on her first school field trip. Her class walked from her Preschool, to the Marietta Square, to attend the Theater on the Square's performance of How I Became a Pirate. She had a blast! Still after a couple of weeks, she still talking about how Pirates DO NOT brush their teeth and I think she memorized part of their song.

F is for Fair x 2!

The N.Georgia fair came and went and the kids and I enjoyed it twice. We went as a family on the opening day. Great weather, food, fun & people watching. Gabriella rode all of the kiddie rides and some of them more than once. Brayden enjoyed running all over the place an eating an entire corn dog all by himself.










On Friday I was trying to think of something fun for us to enjoy since Brian was in CO for the game. Our family in crime the Vo's suggested the fair, so we met up with them and had another great night of fall fun.

F is for Football!

F is for FOOTBALL.

We haven't been having as many get gatherings for UGA away games as past years because we have been really busy or Brian has been traveling to the games. We did have one get together for the UGA vs S. Carolina and it was the first of Georgia's, as of now, 4 game loosing streak. Blah! Anyhow, a couple of people were able to watch and visit and of course we had some adorable visitors playing outside in the marvelous HEAT.




Brian and I did make the Arkansas game and again, a loss for UGA, but an exciting game and a great time with friends.




During the fourth of UGA's loosing streak Brian made the trek to Boulder,CO to watch the Dawgs, yet again, lose to the Colorado Buffalo. Brian was able to meet up with friends and of course visit with his sister and brother-in-law. Bonus of the trip Brian and Lindsay made it on TV. They had second row seats behind the Dawgs bench. At 8:15 on Saturday night, I started getting phone call after phone call, text messages, & facebook bings on my phone downstairs while I was putting the kids to sleep. I had a friend send me a picture on my phone and then once I got the kids asleep I watched the game on our DVR and sent a clip to Brian and Lindsay to watch after a game. Since I was home by myself Saturday night watching the game, it gave me a little excitement and entertainment.

Gabriella - 4 Year Picture

Finally Gabriella's picture arrived that we had taken for her 4 year old shot. It really only took about 3 weeks but it turned out great.



Look how grown-up she has gotten. When did that happen? Next week I am touring some elementary schools to decide where she will go for kindergarten next year. YIKES!!!!


The reason it took a while is we had our family picture taken for the church directory at the church by Olan Mills. Hence the traditional family pose. We decided while we were there to just order her individual picture, even though it was ridiculously expensive.

Football is in the Air!

The time has come that football has taken over. If this is the worst thing I can complain about, football widow, then LIFE is Good! We all in the Morris household enjoy football. Brayden is realizing that the colors Red & Black and the letter G is very important in this home.

We started out the college football season getting the family up at 7:00AM and headed to Athens. Elizabeth and Brian Downey had a perfect spot set up. THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH!!!! Met up with some friends and had a great first tailgating experience. We ended up heading back home at game time and watched the game at home. I am glad to share the Athens experience with my children. I only hope they appreciate it when they are older and TRY really hard to get into Georgia.




Go DAWGS!!!!!

Brayden's First Preschool Art Project

Brayden brought home his 1st Preschool Project today. I am proud Momma! We have colored and painted at home, but this is something he did without my help. His class is learning about the color red and circles at the moment.
