Early Fall Happenings

We have definitely been busy lately. William is in first grade at AES and has an awesome teacher, but seriously, who at AES isn't awesome? He has some great friends in his class and he comes home everyday chock full of stories to tell. He is playing soccer again this year and is still more about the socializing than the competitiveness. Although he does like to tell friends on opposing teams, "You're going down..."
My husband, the former Opp Bobcat turned Andy City Councilman, is now 1/2 of the Voice of the Bulldogs. He is on the radio every Friday night announcing the high school football games.
Speaking of football, War Eagle! How 'bout them Tigers!?! We took William to the Auburn v. Mississippi State game last month. He had a ball!
This is the first Auburn game that we've taken him to where he actually showed an interest in football, not just the concessions.
After the game, we ran into a friend of mine from Auburn. William had a blast chasing her daughter around campus. A taste of things to come? Probably so. He also loved celebrating afterwards at Toomer's Corner. The pictures are a little blurry because they were snapped on my phone.


We spent this past weekend celebrating William's 7th birthday and another AU victory. Saturday night we watched the game at Nana and Big Daddy's poolhouse with some of our best AL friends. We were so thankful when two of our AU friends dropped by for a visit. William and Kate busied themselves with the local wildlife. Here they are trying to feed a caterpillar-

William's favorite kindergarten teacher also made an appearance-




Sunday, we entertained 12 boys at Nana and Big's pool for William's Wall-E themed birthday party. Wow is all I have to say about that. Mothers of first grade girls, LOCK UP YOUR DAUGHTERS! This was one of the calmer moments-


Happy Fall Y'all!
