Taylor posing for me.
Tamra?
Here is Brian, Leon, Taylor, and Grayson after a meal at my Mom's on the 25th.
Here's poor GRayson reaching for his Mommy! We had a great time outside with the kids watching Grayson roll down the hill. It was really funny. I didn't get any shots of it with my digital camera but hope I did with my other camera. We will have to wait for those pictures however! ha!
Here's Grayson and Taylor acting silly while they are sitting on the ground looking up at us on Mom's deck.

Exciting Tree Excursion!

My StepDad had one of his workers come and move a tree from out of Mom's yard. I don't know if you can really tell how big this tree was but it was at least 20feet tall and perhaps taller! It was really beautiful but really overtaking the front yard. Mom had Kenny cut it down with the promise that it would be moved quickly! ha! (i'm sure)
WE were in the process of eating supper at Mom's when Jeff came to move the tree so it was like this really big deal for us to take pictures and watch it be moved. It only took about four minutes! How great was that! In this picture you can see where the tree use to be. It was too bad this tree couldn't have been moved somewhere else because it made a really beautiful christmas tree.

Thanksgiving at the Martins

This is a close up of my cousin, Alex, behind her is my aunt Shelley, next to her is my cousin Jonathon's girlfriend and next to her is Jonathon and at the end is my sister Amber. We had dinner at my Mamaw and Papaw Martin's. It was an great meal and good quality time with our family. My aunt Janice was in but as I just noticed I did not get a picture of her. I did however, get her daughter, Alex! ha!
Here is Grayson entertaining the whole family! He was quite comical. He is the youngest in the family so he gets all of our attention. Behind him you can see my cousin, Laken
Here is my mom and Amber trying not to pose for me! HA! I always have to take picture after picture to make sure mom's eyes aren't half closed or she's not acting crazy! ha!
Here Amber is trying to get some good lovin from Grayson...but notice where his eyes are focused! It's not on Mommy!

My Dad

This is a picture my aunt Dorothy sent to me of my Dad and his wife, Phyliss.

Tobacco Festival

Here is a picture of my cousin, Hannah Martin. She is the daughter of my uncle Kendall and his wife Shelley. She is the one in the middle with her head turned to the side. They are the Lee County Twirlers. You can't really see it but they have batons in their hands! I was lucky to get this picture! They went by me before I realized I didn't have my camera ready! Plus it was soo cold I had a hard time thawing out to get the camera out! ha!
Here is Tamra posing for me after the parade in town, Pennington.

This is a picture I took of Taylors family at the parade. In the back is Taylors' cousin, Brad and his wife who is expecting a baby but she has her stomach covered with her jacket! Next to them is Taylors' Great Grandma Clem and her daughter, Taylors' Mamaw Becky Holbrook. They posed for me in the freezing wind!

Halloween

Here is Amber and Grayson in the morning before Amber went to work. She is dressed up like Cruella De'Ville, ha! I don't know how to spell it!!
Here is the Pumpkin they made for the front of their house at a pumpkin making party. It is a big G for Grayson! Or "BIG G" as his daddy calls him sometimes.
Here is Graysons' costume. He is a little pirate! He was like a walking mummy! His costume could stand up on its own! ha!! With him you will see his little sleeping buddy! He loves his little doggie!
Here is Amber and Brian dressed up at a costume party. I guess Brian is Cruella and Amber is a dalmation puppy. cute!

Halloween


Tamra was a Diva Girl for Halloween. Diva Girl? Kind of like a Valley Girl, I guess.
