Between Canton’s multiple shows, gymnastics, and rehearsal for Christmas Carol we have been so busy. But, It was a rare 4 hour window when everyone was home, so it was time to become “those people” and put up the tree. The girls we so excited and were super helpful! Canton indulged us for a few ornaments. Tis the Season!


























The owl and flamingo costumes have been going strong since first grade for Liberty and year three for Adleigh! We were happy to have Canton and his friend Connor walk around with in their sassy teenager costumes. Happy Halloween!



We just dropped Canton off for 4 nights/5 days away from us 🙁 🙁 🙁 🙁
He’s heading to Richmond to compete in the Va Theatre Association for the one act play. He will also get to attend workshops and keynotes on everything theatre related. The girls sobbed when he left, luckily the got a bit of quality time with him before we had to drop him off. I don’t like this feeling. College is going to be sooooooooooo hard.






Dad got to take to the skies today to celebrate 43 years! He then had a great lunch of crab legs and oysters. He will spend the evening volunteering with marching band in the pit crew! What a great dad! We are so lucky to have you! Happy Birthday!



Happy 8th Birthday, Adleigh!
Adleigh began the day with a new “8 and Flamazing!” shirt from Rhonda to wear for her birthday!
Next, she started the morning with toast and a present from Becky and Ben!
At school she was proud to show off her shirt and hear birthday wishes from her friends. Then, we enjoyed a Chick Fila lunch, her favorite. After lunch Adleigh and Dad headed to her favorite place—Busch Gardens!


After lunch Adleigh FaceTimed with Beth and was so excited for her Bluely game, cookbook, and flamingo slippers!








While Adleigh and Dad were at Busch, Lou and I prepared Adleigh’s favorite garlic knots and manicotti.


Meanwhile, Adleigh and Dad had a blast at Busch!
After Busch, Adleigh came back for her requested garlic knot cake.
Then, we did some presents. She was excited for books from Nanny
Next, we FaceTimed with Rhonda. Rhonda sent a bunch of stuff. Adleigh LOVED her flamingo yoga shirt, rug, and clock! Liberty was glad Adleigh got some silky pjs! Canton was thankful for some spending money for his NYC and Disney trips! They all loved the musical card.














After that, we talked with Poppy and Grandma on the phone. Adleigh was thankful for her gifts, especially the Bluey related ones!
Thank you Pap for the card, and the Chick-Fila bonus!
Finally, Adleigh got her presents from us. Books, curtains, but I think the Hershey giant bars were the clear favorites! Happy Birthday, Peanut! We will love you forever!!






7 has been a joy! Can’t wait to see what 8 brings! Love you forever, my sweet peanut!
