A Little Golden Eagle Fun!

This past weekend we ventured down to Hattiesburg, Ms to take the girls to their 1st USM football game.  It was Homecoming and there were lots of things to do!  Syd booked us a cabin at Paul B. Johnson State Park, just south of Hattiesburg.  We enjoyed staying in the cabin and playing outside.  It was perfect weather!  Here are a few pictures from our fabulous weekend!

Syd and the girls ready to go to the Pep Rally!

While we were off having fun in Hattiesburg my little man was having fun with Nana and Papaw!  He played with cousin Brandon, shopped with Nana and Ko-Ko and went to visit Nannie & Grandaddy.  He had a busy weekend too!  I missed him so much!

Happy Birthday Uncle Scott!

Syd’s little brother Scott turned 18 on Friday!  Scott was only 4 years old when Syd and I started dating. Wow, time has really flown by!  Since Scott had a football game on Friday night we celebrated today at MeMe and Pop’s house with lunch after church.

I had to include some pictures of the cutest little boy EVER! A girl I work with (I also teach her son), gave Andrew some of the cutest outfits!  This is one of our favorites.  Andrew’s nickname is “AndyGator”.  Look at the gator on this outfit!  Too cute!

Pumpkin Patch

We had a great time today at the Nichols Boyd Pumpkin Patch in Brandon!  It was Sophie and Andrew’s 1st time to go.  Everyone enjoyed it!

We rode on a hayride pulled by an old tractor.
