A new post!

Well, I have been sitting here trying to think of a creative title for this blog entry without success. I can't really title it "January recap" because truthly these pictures were taken at the end of January and beginning of February. I opted to simply draw attention to the fact that I am actually posting a new entry within a month of my last entry. This is quite the accomplishment for me! Anyone who has followed my blog is shocked I am sure. So here are some recent pictures of my family for y'all to enjoy. I guess I need to get my husband to take more pictures so that I can be in some of them...maybe next time!
Daddy/Daughter Dance: Brandon came to the front door to pick up the girls...they were thrilled!


Sydney's day out with dad: They hiked Kennesaw mountain together.

We're Expecting...

It is official! We are soon to be pet owners. We get to pick up our new baby boy on February 1st. Last weekend was spent traveling from Athens (go Bulldogs), Georgia to Helen, Georgia looking at a couple of different dog breeders' puppies. Allison got to choose. The Cavapoos (pictured below) won. As you can see in the picture, Allison is thrilled! This is her big reward for reading the Book of Mormon with her dad. Now if we could just agree on a name. Ideas anyone? Our favorites so far are: Samuel (as in Samuel the Lamanite), Trigger (or Trigg) and Tucker. We thought about Teancum but figured either the neighbors would think we are breaking the word of wisdom if we call it Tea or the dog would get confused when we said “come”.

Our dog is the one on the right.
