Pic a day

 Hello, sunshine!
Our first little house in Oxford became the ladybug house (Ladybugs everywhere! inside and out!)
The second house was the bird house (chimney swifts roosting in the chimney fall and spring, and a brown creeper nesting in my bike)
I've decided this little house will be the light house!  Somehow I've ended up with lanterns, candles, and lamps galore!  And pretty skies...


 Bedhead!  
I love my dopey boys!


 Tired out!  
We've been having some fun adventures here, and sometimes it just wears a little guy out!


 H named this safety guy "Joey."
Maybe he is really missing his buddies?


 We have had major ant problems here!  So, one morning while I was battling ants in the house, the boys helped themselves to breakfast.  I'm sure sugary cereal straight from the bag on the kitchen floor is going to help the ant problem....


 C was helping me look for ants in the cabinets with his flashlight.
He takes his job seriously!


 Playing on Missy's phone.  
The boys love having grandparents close by.


Some of H's art:  "a red rocket ship, green guy, and purple and blue lines."

What we like here

 Chalkboard (vinyl) in the hallway.  It is always fun to draw on the wall!  Especially if it is allowed!


 Merry go round at the mall.  H wants to go every day!


 Kid sized shopping carts at the grocery store.  Although it makes it a little too easy for them to make their own grocery selections....


 Yellow park.
The boys are missing their buddies from Oxford so we are finding lots of activities to do!

 Our new little swimming pool



 Watching road workers replace a drain pipe down the road.  Both boys love trucks, so we have eaten many a meal on our porch to watch the action.


 PawPaw and Missy live nearby


 An awesome play place at a church down the road.


There is an awesome little community library down the street with craft time and story time a few days a week.

I think we're going to like it here!

New Adventures



 Watching a show on the morning of our move
TVs packed, chairs packed, we all slept on air mattresses the last night!


Me and the boys (and Leonard and Tatum) are starting a new adventure back in Louisiana!  This last year has brought on a lot of tough decisions, along with many fun experiences, and we are starting this next part of our journey in Fairbanks, LA.  

Oxford brought us so many wonderful experiences, growth, friends, and more!  We will miss everyone there!

Pop and SweetHart came just in time to help load the truck, drive the truck, keep two little boys happy, keep me sane, and so much more.  We couldn't have made it without them!


 Exploring our new neighborhood in comfort.
C's little legs will only take him so far!


 We made a trip over to Black Bayou and explored the woods and the bayou!

Reading with Pop


All aboard the SweetHart train!

I was so thankful to have help to keep boys happy, bellies fed, and the house in some sense of order as I unpacked, and took care of necessities.
