I would just like to say that Connecticut's high is going to be Georgia's low. Oh the difference a few months can make!

We still love it here, we have joined a small group at church and are really enjoying that. I found out about a women's bible study through it, that I am going to be joining up with. I am down right giddy with excitement!

Seriously, to think that 2-3 months ago the socialization that we have had in the last week was more than we had nearly the entire 2 years in CT. I am definitely feeling overwhelmed by the blessings God has bestowed upon us all at once.

Crazy to think how different things would have been if we would have pushed ahead with the STL move we wanted a while back. I really feel like our obedience in staying is being rewarded.

In other news, I put up new pics. Enjoy!

Josh's moment of the day:

He knocked a bunch of pictures that I had been organizing off the desk, he stood back and looked at them, put his hands on his hip and said "that is not a good deal". I started to give him a look, and get on to him (since I had been telling him not to play around them) and he looked at me before I had a chance and said "pick those up" talking to himself, and proceeded to pick them all up.

Apparently college football is kind of a big deal down here is the South. Actually that's an understatement. It's pretty much a way of life. People won't talk to neighbors who root for an opposing team, and it seems like every car, mailbox, or front stoop has some sort of sign clearly establishing who they pull for.

Now I consider myself someone who knows quite a bit about sports, and can hang with the boys in conversations dealing with such, but when it comes to this I am a fish out of water. I am going to have to do some educating.

Especially since my husband has decided it's interesting enough to make a 3+ hour drive and stay overnight to have the opportunity to see a University of Georgia game. Apparently you have to go all the way to South Carolina (not all the way, we're only about an hour or so from the border..) to see a game, since they are sold out here for every game, or go for about $150. All I can think about is the seats that we could have at Busch Stadium for that. Hopefully he has fun with the guys, and hopefully Georgia wins (seriously, Bulldogs vs. the Gamecocks???).

Since Georgia is the number 2 ranked team in the nation, the game will be broadcast on CBS, so I think I will watch some of it to brush up on my Georgia knowledge, since I think I am going to have to be jumping on that bandwagon. Until they play Mizzou!

Go 'Dawgs!

New pictures are here!

A terrible thing happened this weekend. To make a long story short, I was fiddling with the controls on the camera and trying to adjust the aperture, and accidentally erased two weeks worth of pictures off of my camera.

Now I know to most of you this may seem like a silly thing to be so upset about, but none the less, I was upset enough to get myself to the verge of tears.

Two weeks at this stage of life for Jack is a lot to miss out on. There are also not a whole lot of pictures that get taken with my boys and I and I had two really good ones on there. Plus Jack had his first round of shots, and I had picture of the little band aids on his legs. They were tweety bird ones. I also had some really cute ones of him grinning, and of Josh holding him.

Plus we went to this festival, Celebrate Freedom, where 18 different singers and bands performed. They had the Chick Fil A cows there, and I had a bunch of pictures of Josh with them, and one of the DJ's let him get on her golf cart with the cows, and we had a picture of that.

It really is very tragic. But, all that to say, if you are feeling a need for pictures, I am sorry, but you will just have to wait until I build up enough to upload again. I also wouldn't recommend asking me about it. It's kind of a sore subject...
