Gymnastics Birthday party

Kate and Clair enjoyed a fun gymnastics party with their friends. Here are some of the pictures of the BIG event!

Mimi's Boy

Mimi just can't keep her lips of our handsome little man. Who can blame her...he is SOOOO kissable! :)

Papa's Girls

My girls love their "Crazy Papa"!

Do you think these two are related?

Look...it is the exact same expression on both of their faces!

Kate loves her Papa!

Clair loves her Papa too!

Look at that background...looks fake, but that is right behind our house!

Fun With Mimi and Papa

We had so much fun with Mimi and Papa...too bad it was just for a few days. :( My kids love you both so much. Thanks for coming for Bowen's blessing. It means so much to me! Love you both mucho mucho!

Graceland

Here are finally my Graceland pictures. Sorry about the one being sideways. I'm just trying to keep things interesting. Actually I coldn't figure out how to change it. I had forgotten to bring my digital camera, so I had to use a disposable. Graceland was really amazing. Ros...wish you could have been there with me.

Funny Pumpkin Patch Story

As you all know...Kate is afraid of loud noises, including large trucks, and esp. large trucks when they put on their air breaks. Anyway, so the pumpkin patch is near a busy road. Right when I was getting ready to take the picture a big truck pulled up and the hiss of the air breaks filled the cool autumn air. Needless to say, Kate freaked out. Clair looked confused& looked around trying to figure out what was going on. (She only acts scared because Kate is.) Bowen could care less, but he was cold. So, this is the picture of all of that. Kate - crying because I told her to take her hands off her ears, Clair- confused...what's the big deal, and Bowen - just wanting to get back into the warm car.

Our Newest Little Pumpkin

How cute is he!

Pumpkin Patch

Here are some pictures from our Family Home Evening to the pumpkin patch. It was bitter cold and very windy, so Bowen didn't get to participate much! However, the girls had fun looking at all the different shaped pumpkins.

Weekly Sunday Fashion Post

Here are a few pictures of Bowen in the darling Sunday outfit that Chy sent him. I love it! He is also sporting his new brown shoes. He just looked so darling. He is such a good baby. However, he didn't much care for sitting out in this chair, even though the fall colors behind him were so pretty. He never really got to crying, but you can see, he did "yell" at me.

I'm A BLOG HOG!

OK, I totally feel like I am hoggin' the blog...however, I have a lot to post lately. However, this is the last of the pictures I took in Aiken that I plan to post...(if you want to see farming pictures go check out the Bright family blog at http://brightbits.blogspot.com/ ) So anyway, here are a few from the day we went to go and visit with Aunt Mary June. Once we got back to Oma and Opa's they ran out to play and I snaped these photos then!

P. Diddy Bowen

Yo! Yo! Yo! Bowen was pimped out for church today! We nick named this outfit, "The P. Diddy Baby Blue Striped Pimped Up Suit". Doesn't he look ready to attend the Hip Hop Awards here in the ATL? Hey even gangstas cry!

Model Pose

Kate is big into doing these "poses" when I take her picture. Check this one out!

Brooklyn

Here are a couple of pictures that Britni sent to me of Brooklyn. She looks so darling. Brit her mum was darling. I am sure she fit right in for the Homecoming game. Sorry that it only lasted through the 2nd quarter. One day it will last longer. :)

I love the tu-tu. Gosh this gal is a doll!

Kate pickin' cotton!

It wouldn't let me post these yesterday. So here they are. The one of Kate putting the cotton in her pocket is my favorite of the whole "photo shoot"!

Clair in the Cotton

High Cotton

Here are the pictures I took of the kids in the cotton field near Stephen's parent's house.

Kate's Butterfly "Cake"

Stephen's mom is so talented...look at this cute cake she made out of cupcakes...Jessica helped decorate. Kate loved it...now she wants me to make her one for pre-school!

Kate is FIVE!

Hello Family! Just wanted to share a few pictures from Kate's big 5 year old Birthday Morning! She is really taking this "Queen for the Day" thing literally! What a DIVA!
