Class of '98

I recently had my 10 year reunion at the Spartanburg Marriott. It was nice to see and talk to everyone again. I was so excited that Tim and Hillary were able to come in town for it.

New Hair Style!

I put Addison's hair in pig-tails for the first time the other day. She was sitting on my sink and when I was finished she looked up at herself. She laughed, pointed to her hair and said, "Fifor Hair" (flower hair). It was so funny! I can just eat her up sometimes at the cute things she says. I love how cute everything sounds when she talks right now. It makes me sad that she is growing so fast, but I am excited to see all the new things she learns each day.

Nivens Apple Orchard

Brenn, Addison and I went to Nivens Apple Orchard this morning. It was a great trip. This year was so much different. Addison loved everything. She enjoyed looking at the barnyard animals, riding on the hayride (she said it was her Paw's tractor that pulled us), looking at the pumpkins, drinking the cider and picking apples. After she picked a few apples, she decided to eat one. She carried it around most of the time we were there. You will see it in many of the pictures. We met one of the lawyers that Brenn works with and his family. They have a three year old and a little girl around the same age as Addison. Since Addison is too young to carve her pumpkin, we are going to let her paint it this year. I will post those pictures when we do it!


Here are the three kids looking at the baby cow!






How sweet!







Going in the tube!




Coming out!




She was all up in that tree trying to get the good apple.



Already digging in!


Taking a break to eat some more of her apple.


Addison last year and now this year. Look how much she has grown!



Family Photo

Addison and her Paw!

Here are some pictures of Addison and my dad. He originally wanted to be called Pap, but Addie has changed it to Paw. He is just thrilled she calls for him, so he isn't complaining. They were over our house the other night and Addison wanted to wear her Paw's hat. Can you tell she has him wrapped!




Mud Run

Brenn and some friends of ours decided to try out their endurance and compete in a 4 mile obstacle course called The Mud Run. It was in Columbia on September 20. You could have a four person team or two person team. Brenn and Brett had a two person team. They did great and finished in the top third out of about 1100 teams. There were thousands of people there, most of which were covered in mud. It looked very challenging, but fun! I hope to try it out next year. I am missing a few really good pictures. I will post them when I get them.
Look how nice and clean he is now!





And their off!

Look how dirty he is now!
