As the football season ends...
It was a cold one....
so....
Lily and I supported...just from a warmer spot!
We rooted for the Eagles as we met most of the Ray crew for dinner and a movie!
Tyler had a date with Brandon to the game so they cheered extra loud for us too!
The Eagles didnt walk away with the win against Montgomery Academy...but they played a great game and had a great season!
Lily and I enjoyed The Wish movie instead. :)
These two loved the movie! Calhoun didnt want to go to a 'girl' movie so he didnt hang with us!

Here we are...basketball season!
The cheerleaders were not supposed to have to cheer until after football season is over.........
but....
Coach told them that they had to....
so yesterday night.....
thats what they did! Alexis loves cheering and we didnt have anything going on...so....it didnt harm anything..but the point is....
ya know.
The boys that play football...they didnt play............basketball. So.there.is.that.
They WON though so for it to be the girl's first basketball game of the season...they left with a win and it was a great game! (the girls...not so much, they lost big time ) :(
There she is out there...doing her favorite thing!
A day with Lily!
So after our adventure Monday...yesterday...it was Lily and Momma day!
Tyler and Alexis had a day together too. They did some shopping and Alexis chose their date to be Jeffersons so they stayed local.
Lily and I had Chicken Salad Chick and then went to see the new Hunger Games movie because Lily has been dying to see it since it has come out!
It was great and I so enjoyed spending time with just her!
One of her favorite places to eat! Mine too!
It was a long one...but a good movie! She wore braids 'like Katniss Everdeen' :)
Spending the day with a little girl!
The girls and I have not stopped this week! We have enjoyed our break...but whew! :)
Monday we took off to Bham to babysit Reese and LOVED every second of it!
Maggie and Mal met us for lunch in between her two appointments so we finished up our Christmas shopping and then headed to visit Nannie for a bit before making the trek back home. It was a FULL day but the best!
I mean...just SO many cute picture taking spots! Just LOVE!
We passed by Santa................three times! The first time...she didnt even wave at him, just stared at him. The 2nd time she waved at him...then the third...she waved and even said hello!
Did she go talk to him...or sit in his lap....
no! :)
She took her 'Baby Maggie' everywhere we went! :)
She loved going up and down! Reminded me of her aunt Meg! Meg used to LOVE doing this when we were younger!
We bought her an outfit...so she wouldnt be naked anymore! :) Lily and Reese worked on getting her dressed! :)
My two natural beauties!
This MELTED my heart! Reese SO loved being with my girls!..........and my girls LOVED being with her! Here....Reese wanted 'Baby Maggie' to walk with them! :)
I didnt get a picture with Mal and Maggie but we did snag a picture with Nannie before we left her new place! Thankfully she is loving it and we had a great visit with her!
When the Messers are in town!
The Messers came in Saturday so we all enjoyed spending time with them and eating dinner before they headed to their beach house with family.
It was great catching up and enjoying being with them!
Lily was also excited that after....she went to Lauren's house to spend the night because of her birthday. She was in double heaven!
Bad picture...but quality friends!
These three are like sisters! Love them!
Play-offs ROUND TWO!
They did it! Big winners...close and great game and now on to ROUND THREE Friday!
These boys are doing great and way better than we thought since we lost a great group of Seniors! This team has stepped it up and we are all so proud of them!
Bibb County didnt stand a chance!
Love her smile!
Go Eagles!
It is beginning to look A LOT like Christmas!
We have been busy bees over here and thanks to Lily...she was my model to show how it is looking a lot like Christmas over here!
It makes me happy!
Now...I honor Tyler's request to wait until Thanksgiving to do the outside....
but inside.....
it is all twinkle lights and 'warminess' (I know it is not a word) :) of Christmas decor!
Lily looked so cute and grown as she was ready for us to go to dinner with the Rays and Messers...that she just had to be my model! :)
Love this girl!
My favorite tree!
JOY!
My favorite! I love my mantle!
Lily has already made some changes to her tree since I took this picture, but it it is!
Alexis' tree! She got a new one this year...but she didnt.......wouldnt....take a picture!

A weekend to remember with Maggie's bday!
We had a very special little girl's birthday party yesterday! It worked out perfectly that Alexis' cheer comp ended and gave us time to get to her party to celebrate her turning 2!
This precious miracle baby girl is 2!
Loved celebrating her!
Alexis and her science partner, Sydney, worked most of Friday morning on their Science project. They had to do certain Newton's law video and speaking. At one point they had Lily and I outside pushing us in the swings..................
After cheer was this sweet girl's bday party! She loved opening her gifts and her saying 'thank you' just melted me!
Enjoying some family time with alllllllllllllll these babies! I love it!
Our cheer weekend!
We had a nice long weekend due to Veteran's day! I took off Friday and since it was cold and raining, we had a relaxing day (both Friday and Saturday) of putting up Christmas and football mixed with cheer...more cheer and more cheer! :)
Thursday the cheer team WON Regionals! They did their best routine yet and won in their division so they go a BID to STATE which will be in December!
Friday was low key but then the football game where JHS blew Bayside Academy out of the water! Play-off game round 1 goes to the Eagles! Round 2 will be this week!
Then Sunday....we were back at cheer for the UCA competition where they placed 6th. They did a great job but due to their routine being over time limit, they received a big deduction. It was not the girl's fault at all so we could not have been more proud of how they went out on the mat and gave it their all!
These girls were ready to compete!
Love watching these Sophomores!
Love this picture of Lex from the Anniston Star from Friday night's play-off game!
Sunday UCA placed!

Early morning hugging it out and a breakfast date!
Lex had to be at school super early to 'hug' anyone that wanted or needed a hug!
I thought it was so sweet of her to volunteer!
So....since we had to get her to school early....
Lily and I had a breakfast date together before she had to be at school! :)
We hit Dunkins and it made her day!
The group!
Santa came to town! On a Tuesday!
When Misty calls..................
I never know..........
what it is going to be!
There have been some random things over the course of our friendship so when she called me yesterday afternoon and randomly asked me to come to her house to please take pictures of her brother-n-law and her kids as he was dressed like Santa.....
I said....
sure! :)
I think they turned out super cute!
(and could I get my girls to throw on a Christmas shirt and take some pictures.....................)
you know the answer to that! ugh! :)
I took a ton but these are all my favorites!
