I Smell Trouble...

This picture was too funny not to post! This has unfortunately become a regular normal acitivity of Capps', but this is the biggest mess made to date. Hope that is tasted good!

Columbus High 100 Year Football Celebration

Our High School Alma Matter celebrated a 100 year football rivalry this past weekend. It was made into a big alumni event, and since the girls had never been to a football game period, we decided to go. The girls especially had fun- watching the cheerleaders and rolling down the grass hills. Tres and I also were glad to run into some old friends!

One Stands Alone

Capps has been cruising along the furniture for many weeks now- but her surprised this week, at 10 1/2 months when he really started taking his first steps. He can completely stand on his own now too- so we are expecting big things any day now!

August Birthdays

My mother, grandmother, and myself share birthdays within the same week. We usually try to get together to celebrate, but with school starting, we were just too busy. We did have some big milestones this year: My mother turned 50, ( I hope I look that good) My grandmother turned 70, and I turned 29, and plan on being that for atleast 5 more years!!!

Happy Birthday to us August Babes!

School Time

We had one week to recoup from the beach before school started. Adlie is starting 1st Grade at a new school this year and is so excited about it- she just misses some of her old friends.

Laney began her last year of preschool and is sou proud of herself. I can't believe she will be in elementary school next year.

And not to leave Capps out, he will go to Mother's morning out two days a week. He is such an easy baby- loves school! He is also really close to walking. He takes off on this walker- and we will catch him just standing by himself at times. He'll definately be walking by his birthday- which by the way, is approaching way too soon!!

SeaGrove Beach 2008

Every summer, we spend an entire week at SeaGrove Beach with our Green family cousins. We always have tons of fun and relaxation- but with 7 children, it does get chaotic at times.

Some of my favorite pictures of Adlie! She loves for me to braid her hair all up like this at the beach.







We were so proud of Laney! She was finally not afraid of the ocean this year.

Our attempt at some family photos!

Going, Going, Gone!!

Capps had a great time- but he hated the sand!! We discovered that his hair turns crazy curly in the humidity.

Gigi with all the kiddos!




My favorite picture of the kids at Old Florida FishHouse!



We always eat our last night at the Red Bar!

House for Sale

We have decided to list our house for sale this summer. Ever since Capps arrival, the girls have been sharing a room and I really believe they need their space. Please pray that even in this horrible market, that we will be able to sell sooner than later.

After the 4th, I drove to Birmingham to get the girls, and then to head an hour north to my family hometown of Courtland, Alabama. My cousin Justin was getting married- since I love to dabble in photography, they asked if I would shoot there wedding. I am posting some of my favorites- and was very pleased on how they turned out.

It was a small family wedding, but so sweet. He finally found such a precious lady and I pray for continual blessings for this new family.

***Oh, this church is the Courtland Presbyterian Church, founded before the Civil War- my grandparents and parents were all married here- so it is a special and historic place for our family.

The 4th of July

We shipped the girls off to Birmingham for the week, and enjoyed a nice 4th of July with Capps at the river. It was good to see the Green family, but without the girls, wasn't quite as fun.

They were having a good time with Bug Bug and Big Daddy at the Church of the Highlands annual celebration.

SO SAD......

I am really sad, infact horrible at keeping up with this blog. It's ended up being a quarterly thing for me!!

We had such a big and busy summer, I just couldn't keep up. I will now upload a recap of our summer and do my best to regularly do so.
