November Catch-Up

An early November wedding in the North Georgia mountains led to a stop at Tallulah Falls

The weekend before Thanksgiving Laura's side of the family got together in the Tennessee mountains.

Love to show off my "teef" with a smile!

Mama Ann loaded up her car and brought the "real-deal" Thanksgiving dinner to the cabin in the mountains. Of course it was yummy!

Took a drive through Cades Cove

and up to Clingman's Dome!

Thanksgiving Day with Joseph's folks...

where Sawyer had to play football with Aunt "Kessies" lab Boeing!

Traditionally we head to Montgomery to be with the Parkman's again for a different twist to Thanksgiving dinner...

Uncle Dean (Laura's Father's Brother) fixes a hog for everyone to eat....tasty isn't the word!

We had fun, but all Sawyer really cared to do was push the "tractor" around the pasture...again...again...and AGAIN!

This boy can already sit a saddle.

Visiting with Grandma

@ Toomer's Corner with Mommy after Auburn beat Alabama to go 12-0 for the season!!

War Eagle!!!!!!

The day after the Iron Bowl we went out to Lakeside Tree Farm to pick out our Christmas tree for this year.

I had a blast running through the trees.

Running between the Frazier Firs from North Carolina was like going through a car wash.

Thanks Mr. Donald, Mommy and Daddy have a ton of memories from your Christmas Tree farm and now I have some too!

Ready or not, here comes the CHRISTmas season!!!!!!!!

Buddies and Puppies

Hi everybody. Mommy and Daddy took me to visit my buddy Patrick down in Jay, FL this past weekend. We had a blast playing and being silly. Patrick's Mommy and Daddy were very kind to invite us down and we had a great visit.

We came home Saturday evening and had fun watching Auburn beat Ole Miss. Speaking of Ole Miss.....Pop and Mim went to Oxford for the game and on the way home stopped and picked up two new cow-dog puppies for the farm. My friend "Cayce", Daddy's last Australian Shepherd, died last week. Pop had been looking for just the right friends for me to play with. I think he found them. Their names are "Bess" and "Tula" and they LOVE me.... Enjoy the pictures from this past weekend. -Sawyer

Taking in Tiger Walk

...at the Smith pumpkin carving party

Sawyer LOVED his cousin Benjamin showing him all of his neat stuff.

Sawyer was a monkey for Halloween.

Always start yelling out "twick er tweat" long before you get to the person giving out candy...that way they will know exactly what you need!

This little monkey couldn't wait to check out the goodies in his bag!

Ft. Walton Beach 2010

We headed off for our annual family beach trip this past week. I'm not sure I have ever seen the weather and ocean as perfect as it was...ever. Partly cloudy skies, highs in the low 80's, lows in the mid 50's, and the ocean just as clear and calm as can be. Had a blast spending time with our family and catching up on a bit of "rest". "Rest" might be a tad too generous description with an active 18 month old. Anyway, had a great time. Enjoy the pictures.We had fun playing in the ocean.

Ain't I just cute.......

Our family at our FAVORITE place to eat...Dewey Destin's. It's just a cook trailer backed up to a pier with a few tables. PERFECT SEAFOOD!

Full tummies.

One reason we love to eat here...the view can't be beat!

Hot Mommy and Cute kiddo!

We headed over to a nearby park Saturday afternoon to carve pumpkins.

Sawyer and PawPaw hung out and watched the boats while waiting to judge the competition.

Mal and Brandon's pumpkin won...wonder why?

Took a walk with Unca Danny...which comes out as Unca Maynay right now, but I'm working on it.

Pop and Mim

Fall Fairs

Well, Fall finally arrived here in the south. Just as only mother nature can, it went from highs around 100 and lows of 80 to highs of 75 and lows of 45. With that weather comes the fairs. We have attended a few, ate some good food, and danced to the good music. Enjoy. The Cotton Pickin Fair in Gay, GA

Enjoying the sunshine!

I think I may be a farmer one day...Is it the pose?

The Lee County Fair in Opelika.

Helping Daddy train one of his bird dogs.

Yes, we were able to get all of his dirty clothes off, even the diaper, but no go on the BOOTS until just before bath time.
