Can the weather get any better? Not too cold...Not too hot! I'm loving it! I'm not quite ready for the cold yet, but I know it's coming!
A few things that have happened over the last few months:
We had the whole family over for dinner for mom's birthday. It was my first experience as a host! It was a little difficult fitting all 10 of us in the kitchen...but we got it done. It's was a pretty good dinner if I say so myself! Did I mention Mandy burnt her hair, face, and hand when she opened up the grill! Always an evental occasion with the hill bunch!
October 10 and 11th bobby and I went up to Tennessee for our Alumni weekend. We both got to play in our alumni games (i hit two bombs and bobby pitched like a pro), see our old friends, and take a little break from work! I always forget how beautiful Tennesse is and how much I love the weather there. We had a blast!!
Jennifer, bobby's sister (my sister-in-law), and baby kyler (her son) came down for a visit. We took a trip to the Yellow River Game Ranch on saturday. I believe we were a little more amused by the animals than Kyler was. Between bobby begging to buy carrots and tricking the chipmunk into the eagle cage to get eaten, it was a wonderful trip.
Baby Kyler!
Trav feeding the squirels! They didn't like anything but peanuts...picky!!!
Travis, Mandy, Lanis, Josh, Bobby, and myself are all playing on a flag football team on Saturdays! It's a family event! We are having a BLAST! It's quite an entertaining site!!! I don't think we'll get invited back next year...we're a little too competative...haha Our team is 5-1. 5 wins and 1 loss! Not too bad!
Our latest adventure was camping! Mandy, Lanis, Bobby and myself packed up the car after two flag football games and headed to North Ga. I thought we had already reserved a site at Vogel State park. Mandy forgot to tell me that she hadn't really gotten a reservation and that we would just find something when we got there. Not good for somebody like me who always likes to have a plan!! All the parks we had called were completely full! We stopped by two places and had no luck. By then I was getting a little worried...not to mention is was almost dark! Luckily Amicalolla state park referred us to this little site down the road from them called under the hemlock. It was a fantastic little campground! God sent! We roasted hotdogs and smores, went hiking, and went to a play! It was one of those weekends that will always be a memory! We had a fantabulous time!
Bobby hugged a tree for the Hemlock festival (a festival thats raises money to save the trees)
Hiking down the mountain got a little rough after 2 flag football games and 700 stairs up the mountain!
But is was well worth the view!
We made lanis do all the work! (look at him in the back...haha)

As much as you bicker... you both (you and Mandy) have so much fun together. That was a GREAT trip!!
