baby it's cold outside

Even though this is her "church coat" we bundled up today to run a few errands :o) Too cute.

trip to charlotte

We took a trip! This past weekend Andrea and Brian were married in Charlotte so we loaded up what felt like TONS of gear (I really USED to pack light...) and headed up there on Saturday midmorning (Jon had class but his prof. let him skip out a bit early).

Kari and Erik were gracious enough to let us stay with them and to watch Lydda Grace for us while we went to the wedding. It was such a blessing to catch up with them and to join them for church the next morning.

Sunday lunch we all met up with Jason (Jon's first grad student from VT) and his girlfriend Michelle at the Flying Saucer.

Then... right before we left on Sunday Kari snapped some pictures of Lydda Grace that turned out so great! Enjoy...

photo shoot

We got Lydda Grace's pictures back from when Rachel took them and they turned out really cute! It is really funny how much she would NOT smile, but there are some really good ones. Enjoy....

tiggers are wonderful things

So normally when I do this Lydda Grace laughs like crazy. But when the camera is on her she clams up! We got one little squeal, but that's about it... (and we did try several more times!)

sweet pea

We borrowed Lydda Grace's Halloween costume from some friends at church and we're determined to use it as much as possible in this Halloween weekend! This weekend is a conference here on-campus for Jon's work, so Lydda Grace and I went to visit this afternoon. You could hear the collective "awwws" throughout the building as Jon showed her off :o)

sneak peek

Is it wrong to make her wear this ALL DAY tomorrow? I can't stop laughing, our little "sweet pea" is way too cute!

Dada was out of town this weekend in Texas. It was his first time away from us since you were born. We did just fine- but missed him lots!
