Our Latest Additons

Introducing Lady & Pretty (Bama not pictured)

For as long as I can remember Cooper has always wanted a dog. His dad promised him that when they got Emma they would get him a dog. Well we got Emma and Cooper never forgot that his dad promised him a dog. So last Monday they went to get his puppy. Instead of One they got Three. Cooper got two and Tyler our other grandson got the third one. Cooper was thrilled to death. I'm not sure Cooper's mom was to thrilled over having two puppies. As for me I just hope they don't come to see me at the same time.

Happy Birthday Emma

Saturday May 24, 2008

Saturday we celebrated Emma's birthday party at The Kiddie Carnival in Athens. ( Thanks Denny ) We did not know how she would react to the rides and all the activities but she loved it. She rode every ride over and over and enjoyed all of it. She especially loved the roller coaster and would just laugh everytime she came around.. She loves to walk and just look at everything. She really soaks up the outside. It is so much fun to just watch her and see how she takes everything in. She is free as a bird.
Her birthday is June 2nd but we celebrated early so I could be there.
Thanks to all who helped us celebrate. It was a fun day.

Emma's First Birthday Party

May 15, 2008 Alabama Re-adoption

On May 15, Gary , Sabrina & Emma had to appear before Judge Junkins to have Emma adopted in Alabama. Some states do not require you to do this but Alabama is one of the states that does. So now Emma is officially an Alabamian. After the Judge talked to Gary & Sabrina he turned to Cooper and asked him if he loved his little sister to which he replied. NO....we all laughed, then later he said he was just kidding he did love her.

When the Judge got there he told us he had been home sick, but got up to come to the adoption because it was such a happy time. He usually deals with more unpleasant situations. After the ceremony was over the Judge allowed pictures to be made. Their lawyer was getting us all together to make pictures, when he told us they were ready, Cooper immediately said he did not want his picture made with the judge he did not want to get sick. I think his dad was not very pleased...but I told him at least the judge would know it was not rehearsed what he should say..
