Miles! - Little Travis Jr. :)


Our nephew! Adorable!

Thanks for all we have!!


I'm just so thankful for everything we have. Mitchell and I are blessed with our wonderful home. We finally closed on our house in Cincinnati! Thank Goodness! And, we are so greatful for our little pups-Toby and Bug, who make me smile every minute of every day. We have wonderful family and friends who support us 100% of the time. And I'm extremely thankful for my wonderful husband who supports me and cheers me on every minute of every day. He's amazing! I'm one lucky wife :).

Snow in Georgia!


My first time ever seeing snow in Georgia!!! I moved south to get away from the cold, luckily it only lasted a day. And, it was beautiful! The biggest snow flakes I've ever seen. The warm weather melted it away the very next day. It's amazing that we don't have salt trucks around here though!

Miles Dedication!


Baby Miles was dedicated today in church! Mitchell & I wish we could have been there. He's growing so fast! Handsome little boy! We love you Miles! And, we miss you all! My family!

A Few Short Days in Ohio


I just got back from a small trip to Ohio! I had the pleasure of working the OVMA Veterinary Conference for Merial. It was great being back North working with some of my old coworkers :) and seeing some of my old accounts! Even better, was the opportunity I got to have with my parents! A yummy Italian Dinner at Martinis! And, drinks. My parents drove 3 hours just to have dinner with me and 3 hours all the way home late at night! They are AWESOME! I MISS THEM SO VERY MUCH. Mitchell & Toby & Bug had a great weekend down at the Farm! And, Brandon and David made the trip too. Mitchell and I had a great afternoon today after I flew home. We saw a movie and got some Mexican! YUMMY. Sometimes, I forget how lucky I am! And, just how good it feels to receive a HUG every once in awhile. :) Feels good to be back home again.

House Update!

After a long few months of preparing the house....well, actually creating an entirely new house out of the one we bought :)....it's come along way! Lots of great improvements. Starting from simply scraping paint off of every window, new bathroom,painting every wall on the 1st floor, painting cabinets, doors,etc. Our house is beginning to look more like 'Our Home' and it feels wonderful! Along the way, Mitchell & I couldn't have done all of this on our own! We had great help from our personal painting crew Mom,Dad, & Amy! And, we've owe a lot of thanks to Fondren & Melissa for all the labor they've put into it. And, of course, thanks to Sharon and Bill and Heather and Brandon & Sarah and John and Andy and Kyle & Kandyce for all the support and tips along the way!!!! We have covered a lot of miles, but we have many more ahead of us. And, it's fantastic! The slideshow is just a 'peek' of where we started and how far we've come. Hope you all come visit soon! We have enough chairs now at the table that perhaps we'll have Thanksgiving at our house next year! :) love ya!
