Jake's Halloween Party

Knowing ahead of time that Jake would have NO part in dressing up in a "real" costume, we opted for the football player look. These pictures are from the costume parade and party at his pre-school.

Waiting for the parade to begin

Jake's class takes their turn walking around the gym. I really like "Handy Manny" in front of him!

Jake sits with Ms. Tammy (one of his teachers) to watch a funny little performance by the music teacher.


I'm pretty sure the party was his favorite part of the day!

Canale Farms

Back in October, our church rented out an entire farm for an afternoon. It was a very fun, and very nice experience. We started the afternoon with a wagon ride around the entire farm.


View from the wagon as we rode.

Hannah takes a turn on the horses.

Then Emma took a turn.

Finally it was Jake's turn.


Paul and Jake spend time doing "guy stuff". Love this picture!

Jake's First UGA Game

Well my posts are way out of order now --- I was too excited about Emma's tooth not to post it! But I can still catch up, right? So here are the pics from our (Paul, Emma, Jake, & I) trip to Nashville to the Vanderbilt/UGA game. Hannah quickly opted out and begged to stay with a friend. Paul was very excited as this was Jake's first game. All things considered it went fairly well. The worst part was the weather......it was FREEZING! So we only made it to half-time. But it was fun to get away.

Emma really enjoyed getting decked out in her brand new UGA cheerleading outfit.

Paul and Jake try to steal a peek of UGA before we head out.


I must admit I think this was their favorite part.....returning to the hotel - where it was nice and warm - and eating pop tarts. Go figure!
