Fun Times on the "Fun Ship"

Its official Adam and I have been bitten by the cruise bug. We are lovin' us some cruising and had a WONDERFUL time with the family (that includes you John and Sam) on this cruise. IF you haven't cruised before, I will be the first to admit my skepticism before our first cruise (over 2 years ago). Now three cruises later, its the way to go. So relaxing and just a fun time together. Adam and I have already booked another one for our anniversary trip. Here is a glimpse into our trip.
This is a picture of us in Progresso. If you look very closely (click on the picture) you can see Lisa, Patrick, Lori and James on the top deck We had no idea when Samantha and John took this that they were up there. To fun!.
Dinner time was our favorite time of the night. The boys could put away some food. I was really pleased with how well I was able to eat this cruise compared to our honeymoon. I have come a long way on the yeast free diet and aren't nearly as rigid as I was 10 months ago. We had a lot of fun with our waiters and just being with the fam. Here are some pics from the GREAT trip.

Power of Prayer

We are back from our trip and I can't wait to tell you all about it... but that will have to wait. My heart is heavy as I talk to the Father on behalf of people that I don't even know. Isn't it funny how the Lord brings his children together across the miles. I have read this blog for a long time now and enjoyed learning this family, and now their little infant Stellan heart is running away from him (something I know a little about). Check out the link below, read of the faith of this mother and petition on behalf of this family.

"Albe my friend"

Adam, Albe and I had a great trip last weekend. Albe did great with Jackson and at Grandma and Poppa's house. We were all extremely wore out by the time we got home.
Albe in the backseat wishing that we wouldn't put him in the crate. Albe and Jackson got along really well. Jackson would say, "Albe my friend." I love this picture of Jackson and Albe watching Adam leave for Auburn. Sweetness.

Jackson LOVES his Uncle Adam. When I talked to him and told him we were coming he kept saying, "you bring Adam". They had so much fun together. WE love this little boy and are SO glad to call him our nephew.

The countdown is on. We are cruising in 5 days. Have I mentioned that we are cruising. I think I neglected that.We will be seeing this boat again in 5 days. We are SOO excited. We cruised the fantasy 2 years ago, so I might have to throw in a tribute post pre-cruise if I have time. Wouldn't that be fun Knight family!!

I'm so excited....

I'm so excited... and I just can't hide it... go ahead finish the song in your head or outloud. Its ok. Let loose.
Adam, Albe and I are packing up this afternoon and going to see this precious little fella (his parents will be there too)!!!!
When I talked to Jackson this week about coming to see him his only stipulation was that I bring Adam. He kept saying, "You bring Adam". Adam is going to Auburn on Friday to do some things for work and Albe and I are staying in Prattville with Jackson ALL DAY!!! I am THRILLED!!! We will find out soon if Albe feels the same way. I hope it is love at first sight! Albe better sleep in the car because I think he is about to get worn out!!

Happy Anniversary!!

I just wanted to take a minute to say Happy 30th Anniversary to our parents, Chuck and Cindy. This is an amazing accomplishment and they have set a wonderful example for Amy and I to follow. We are truly blessed to have such great parents, as Amy's parents have also been married for over 30 years and have been great to us as well. Hope you have had a great day and 30 or more great years together!!

Snow Day

We woke up this morning to a winter blanket of snow. This is a RARE occurrence in Mississippi so we are of course very excited to see snow! We didn't know how Albe would react to the snow since he can't stand the rain ( we can barely coax him to go outside in it). Here are some pics from around our house today!Albe ready to tackle the snow.
Albe says, "This snow is nothing, let me see if I can change the color of it."
Out our back door.

Have a great Non-snow day.
