Green Food, actually

Wednesday, April 13 –

Join Marian and Alan for a healthy picnic by the creek. Everything’s going well until Marian hears a bull frog and gets a little nervous.

How fortunate that Atlanta was in Texas when Jennifer’s shower rolled around. We drove over to Clarendon a little early to do some antique shopping. Unfortunately, we couldn’t find very much open in Memphis or Clarendon, but the shower was fun.

Quick Visit from Tennessee

We really enjoyed getting to see Atlanta and Jordan and the kids before Thanksgiving. They couldn’t stay long, but we loved every minute.

Isn’t Alan growing?

Tuesday night Sunny, Jim, Hannah and Granny joined us for supper.

Checking out the cows, or rather, being checked out by the cows.

Marian’s Busy Day NEW Video

Friday, October 23 –
The Life of a 20-month-old is a busy thing.

There’s the ironing to do.

…and you have to keep up with the computer work.

The phone never seems to stop ringing.

And just like mom, she has to nurse her baby throughout the day.

Marian sets the record straight about what goes where.

The Little House

Marian had so much fun playing in Carolina’s playhouse. We would come to the sliding side window and pretend to order something. Then we would pay with a little “credit card”. Carolina’s little plastic cash register makes a little computer sound when you swipe the card through it. She also enjoyed washing the dishes, cooking and driving the car.
