Beachin' It!

We had an amazing trip to the beach.  The weather was perfect, and it was not crowded (although my favorite restaurant was. :( )  It was a great amount of time, and amazingly, Cooper did well in the car.

On the Road... Again

Whew!!!  These past couple of weeks have been busy for us.  We have had a good time though!

Cooper being himself
On the way to a wedding, this is how J got Coop to fall asleep

At the end of September, Coop and I set off for NC while J was in Orlando on business.  It was Cooper's first time flying, but he did great!  We had a great time seeing our friends.  I felt like we had never left!

Watching the planes

Wearing Archer's sunglasses

He slid off the bed. Oops.

Flying home



It's hard to tell from the picture, but the mountains had a red glow to them... I love fall!

We had the entire row to ourselves on the way home!

We got back from NC/FL on Thursday, and left Friday for Columbus!  There has been so much travel lately and missed naps, but Cooper has been a trooper through it all.  When he can, he catches up on the missed sleep.

Loves the bubble wand!

Marion, the top of my head, and my arm on SEC Nation

We were back in TN Sunday night, then left again for Columbus Friday. This was the best weekend! J, Marion, and Steven went to Gameday early and held up their signs. One even made a top 10 list!!! I stayed behind and went with Cooper, Nana, and Papa to the pumpkin patch. 

Not sure what to make of the corn box

Swinging :)

Cooper loved loved loved all the pumpkins!

Tractors were a close second













J and me before the game!

J came back to get me by himself because.... 

Steven proposed! (And she said YES!)
Soaking wet cheering on our #1 Dawgs!
This was by FAR the loudest game I have been to. Our ears still feel a little funny and our throats are still sore.  Not the mention the blisters from all the cowbell ringing. Man, that was the best football environment ever.  Nothing like it.  #HA1ILSTATE

Sleeping on the way home

So we have been insanely, but the good kind!! And we are fans of the #1 team in the nation! We are hoping to go to one more game this year, but we will see. It has been a great fall so far, and it's just getting started! Look for a beach update next week. :)
