Christmas Tree "Shopping"

Molly & I went with her Grandmom to Varner's Farm to help Grandmom pick out her pick out her Christmas tree.  We took a horse-drawn wagon out into the fields, but sadly we did not find the perfect tree out there.  But with the help of Molly's Uncle Ty and Uncle Andrew, we were able to find the perfect tree - and Molly picked it out!  Molly was very excited to visit her Daddy at his weekend job on the farm and ran right up to him!  He showed her around the farm so she could see the goats and sit on a REALLY big tractor.  It was a fun day for everyone!

Happy Girls!
Kisses from Grandmom!
Molly LOVED the horses!  
Molly's Daddy is so strong, he carried both Molly and the tree out to the car!
Seriously...ALL the way to the car!

Uncle Gus's 100th Birthday!!!

We traveled down to Miami Florida to celebrate Uncle Gus's 100th Birthday!!!  Blas & Kellee graciously opened their house for the event, and many of Gus's friends & family were able to come into town for the event.  He was VERY happy, and touched by all that were there, and all those that sent cards & well wishes that could not attend in person.  He gave a beautiful speech after his gift opening and again after he blew out his candle on the cake.  Molly & I stayed for a few days after the party so we could celebrate his actual birthday on December 9th - we took him to the Cheesecake Factory for Quesadillas & Mudslides - his favorites!

The November Adventures of Lexie & Molly!


A few days before Thanksgiving, Molly & I got to fly out to Pittsburgh to spend a few days with Russ, Meghan, Lexie AND Mike, Debbie, Marissa & Spencer AND Mitch & Lisa AND my mom and grandmom.  It is so rare that we all can get together, and I was grateful for every minute we were there.  It was a very exciting 3 days, and Molly & Lexie had a TON of fun together!!!  Thanks Russ & Meg for having us - we can't wait to visit again soon!

"Grandmom" had her hands full with all her grandkids (Marissa, Spencer, Molly & Lexie)   under one roof!

Happy Girls!

Playdate with Renzo!

So, since our camera is still out of commission, I am relying on family and friends for their photos.  These pictures are from our friends Sam & Corine.  Molly & Renzo had a really fun time playing the other day, and we tried to get the highlights on film.


Mr. Sam showing Renzo and Molly how much fun it is to play the piano (and Corine used her skills to capture the moment)


Renzo and Molly have a lot in common...especially their love of cell phones!

They are VERY important people!

Molly's newest "trick" - when you ask her for big smiles, she delivers!!!
And what's not to smile about  - she had a GREAT time with Renzo!

John & Sarie's Wedding!

In the middle of October, Brad, Molly & I went up to West Point, NY  for our friend Sarie's wedding to John.  The wedding was beautiful, the bride was gorgeous, the foliage was incredible...and Molly was having the time of her life!  From partying with her Aunt K-K, to showing everyone the newest dance craze, it was a fun-filled day!!!

Our First Blog




Since this is our first blog, I am going to play catch up from the last posting on Molly's Mac website - which was the end of August.  We have had a lot of fun this fall - but no one more than Molly.  She has become quite the social butterfly - playing with her friends in the neighborhood, and friends who live far away.
