Family Photo Shoot

We had a family photo shoot in April that was intended to be Tate's 6-month pictures. However, the weather wouldn't cooperate so he was 7 months by the time these photos were taken. I guess it doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things. I decided to spare you the long post and put our favorites into a slide show. Enjoy!

Tate's First Trip to the Beach

Ok, so we have been a little behind on blogging. Things have been very busy but we are working to catch up on blogging. The biggest event being a trip down to Gulf Shores with our friends the Bunches. We had a great time and in a shocking turn of events, there were some pictures taken to document. Here is a slideshow with captions:

Okay, so I mentioned we have had a lot of visitors in the last month. Well, one was not wanted. Let me set the scene....

David got up on a Thursday morning at 4:30 a.m. for Bible study as usual. He used the restroom and then stumbled to the sink to wash his hands. When he looked down to turn on the faucet, this was waiting in the sink to greet him...

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, a SCORPION! Of course the picture doesn't do it justice, but we did try to put it in perspective with the quarter. David said it looked so intimidating because it's tail was curled and his pincers were up and ready, that is, until David whacked it with a flip flop. Thankfully, we have not seen any more in the house. I hope it stays an isolated event.

**On a side note, I was so impressed that David didn't gasp loud enough for me to hear him or come wake me up to show it to me. He just put it in an empty soap bottle, covered the top in case it decided to come back to life, and then called me later that morning. :o)

Coming Soon....

I apologize because we are so behind on blogging! We've been busy with visitors and vacation. I promise to post some updates soon. Upcoming posts will include a creature we found in the house, our family photo session for Tate's "6 mo." pictures, our trip to Gulf Shores and more. Don't give up on us yet. ;o)
