random stuff

I haven't had much time to blog recently so I guess my new thing is to wait for a long time and then post a whole bunch of stuff. This month has gone by so fast. We had so much going on and I recently started working part time and am still trying to get used to that. I don't even work that much but I'm always stressed out about it.






Jonas received a hand me down tractor from a friend who was moving away! We had to talk him into riding it at first but once he got the hang of it he loved it.



This picture was courtesy of Jonas. James and I celebrated our 6 year anniversary. We went out to dinner and came home for ice cream cake.


Savvy chillin in her high chair. She's starting to eat baby food!




Our garden is actually growing! No thanks to me.
James and I also planted a magnolia tree in our back yard to somewhat block the view of the buildings going in right behind us. We love the beautiful magnolia trees they have here because of their big white blossoms.


Something I got used to in Michigan when we lived in student housing is getting together for BBQs. I love to see kids running around and playing together with popsicles in their hands. We recently hosted a BBQ with some friends and this is a picture of the cute kids with sticky popsicle hands.





You can't see it very well but our friend Heidi who gave us the tractor before they moved away also came and painted this cute tree on Savannah's wall. Thanks Heidi.I also had to take a picture of the kids in their cute new outfits from Grandma. Thanks Grandma!

Fun photos, Amber! Congrats on your sixth anniversary.
And what a beautiful garden. We can't keep ours alive no matter what we try. . .and we've tried everything. We think something is killing all our plants soooo. . . maybe we'll have to take a jaunt over to Georgia to sample some of your tomatoes because we obviously won't be getting any of our own. :)

I'm so glad I can read your blog again! It feels like I haven't talked to you guys for so long and I think its because I've been behind on blogging. Pathetic, right? Congrats on your anniversary (for not killing him? Ha ha love you James) and I didn't realize you were working again. I hope it's a great place. Your garden looks great - send us some salsa! Love you!

Cute picts of the kids. I can't believe how big Savvy (cute nickname, btw) is getting! I can't believe I haven't even met her yet!! We're hoping to visit soon.
Love you guys!
