Petting Zoo with Grandma!

Clay's birthday

The boys took turns singing Happy Birthday to Clay!  Notice that we found an Astros cake!!

Fun Pictures!

This is just classic Jonah.  Posing and attempting not to smile.

And here we see Jackson's personality!

Fun on the playground!

Jackson at the egg hunt!

This is me coaching Jackson and his friend, Trevor, on the best way to get the most eggs!  Jackson did really well until he spilled his whole basket and we had to pick them all up :)

Jonah at the egg hunt!

Classic Jonah face :)  He didn't quite get the egg hunt until I opened one of the eggs and showed him the candy and then he was off!!!

We went to a new petting zoo last week with our friends. It was way better than I expected. They had monkeys, kangaroo, horses, cows, goats, chickens, pigs, raccoons, skunks, zebra, camels, and more! We were the only ones there so we basically got a private tour from the farm manager.



The monkey eats a banana! The boys intently watched him do this.















Everyone checks out the horse who was peering at us under his door.









Jeni and Casey checks out a baby goat.










Jonah climbs the fence to see the goats.
















The Dalmation 'doat" as Jonah calls it. He's still asking if we can have one as a pet. This goat is more like a pet. They said he thinks he's a dog and he runs around with all the other dogs.

Vacation Spots

So for the entire football season, Jackson has been obsessed with the Steelers. We have no idea where it came from but he has stayed true to it. Anyway, last night was the pro-bowl in Hawaii and it got Clay and I talking about places that would be fun to visit. As we were discussing all these tropical places, Jackson says, "I know, let's go to Pittsburg!" Needless to say, that is not on our top 10 list!

Classic Jackson Quote!

Tonight, Clay was putting Jackson to bed and Jackson asked how old Clay would be on his birthday. Clay said, "well, I'm 35 now, so how old will I turn?" And Jackson answered correctly, "36", and then proceeded to say, "Wow, you're about to die!"

The Greatest Show on Earth

We went to the circus in Savannah last night. The boys loved it. Jonah was in awe and didn't say much, and Jackson just kept gasping and clapping!












You can see the lovely clown hat we got with our cotton candy that no one ate :)




















The boys loved the animals the most.

January Fun!

Mr. Potato Head never goes out! The boys love creating goofy characters with their new Christmas gifts.
















The boys visited the dentist this month for the first time. We forgot the camera, so Clay snapped a couple of pictures with his phone. There were TV's on the ceiling so they could wear head phones and watch a movie while they were in the chair. They both were very cooperative. About half-way through the dentist says, "I'm sorry, but are you the worship leader at LCC?" We can't go anywhere without being recognized :)


Jonah still loves to sing Jingle Bells :)

Biking in Sea Pines

We went biking on the island in Sea Pines, the most beautiful part of the island in my opinion. We rode out to the lighthouse and play ground, and even made our way out to the beach and rode on it for awhile.


















my parents and Clay and Amy.





















Jonah climbs the ladder with a little help.


















At the top!











The treehouse part of the playground.

The boys Christmas picture! For more pics of actual Christmas visit Clay's site (link to the right).






My brother, Clay, and his wife, Amy, came to visit over New Year's weekend. We had lots of fun, mostly playing Wii! My parents were also here for 2 weeks over Christmas. The boys are totally bored now :)






Jonah loves to sing Jingle Bells in his own special way!
