Still Here! Fall 2014 Recap

Well, Fall 2014 got away from us...so I'm going to try to catch it up...quick version:

We took our annual girls' weekend trip in Charleston this year in early August.  Such a fun, relaxing weekend with these two girlies.  Miss them so.  

I was lucky enough to get to see Charleston for a second fun weekend shortly after our girls trip.  We snuck away for a weekend with our sweet friends Jeremy and Lindsay.  Perfect early Fall getaway!  







Ready to cheer on the Dawgs...first game of a not-so-great season

Party bus on the way to school :)

Sweet Hadley invited us to her birthday party at Artsy Me...such a fun morning!

Addyson's party at Artsy Me.  We love this place :)

Bath time fun :)


We held our annual Georgia-Carolina weekend at our house this Fall with the Greers and the other Greers and Uncle Mo.  We had a great weekend except for the horrific Dawg loss.








We had a Cinderella-themed party to celebrate our sweet Kate's 5th birthday in September:





We went and had a pedicure on her birthday :)


I got to go on the boys' "Fall Walk" with them at school, just like I did with Kate last year.  So sweet to watch them get excited about collecting leaves and acorns :)  Simple pleasures!

We love Mrs. Head!

Movie under the stars

Halloween was so fun this year, and also bittersweet.  It is easily one of our favorite things about living in Bartram Trail.  Sad that it was our last one there.  But it was also probably the best one we've had yet.  Sweet, sweet memories!

This pic cracks me up...this is about as good a photo as we can get with everyone in it these days.

Halloween was a family affair this year....also a "Frozen" affair.  We sorta liked the movie ;)


Matthew/"Olaf"


Trick or treat!

I cannot believe how grown up these two are.  We have come a long way from this: 
Halloween 2009



Sweet friends!

Just after Halloween each year the Columbia County Fair comes to town.  Another perk of living in Bartram Trail that we will miss...we were literally within walking distance!

We made our annual visit to the pumpkin patch at Marvin United Methodist:






We had the Fall Family Picnics for all three kids at FBC:

Nana got to come :)

  Hadley and Kate at the picnic.  Precious friends!

The boys' picnic:

I was pretty excited when I heard Disney's "Frozen on Ice" was coming to Atlanta!  Truly amazing show.  The kids loved it. 







Fun pizza night with sweet friends on one of our last nights in Bartram Trail 

Cookie treats on the way home after school ;)

Lindsay was so sweet to organize a surprise gathering of some special friends for us at their home the week before we moved.  It's kind of silly to consider we just moved a couple miles down the road...but still.  These are friends we either physically saw or communicated with in some fashion nearly every day.  Friends that we will keep for life.  So grateful for our time in this neighborhood and the wonderful friendships we made while there.  Change is never easy.  

So ok.  A holiday post to follow shortly, then hopefully that will catch us up to the present.  Finally.  I am really hoping vowing to do better at keeping up for 2015.
