Fall 2008 Beach Week

Last weekend Ivy and I headed to SC for a visit to the beach with the grandparents.   Poor Daddy is at home working and studying.  I hope he can get ahead on some school work this week so we can have lots of quality time when we get home!  

While we were at the beach today Ivy decided to write Daddy a note in the sand using shells.  Check it out below.
Before heading to the beach we stayed with Pappy Joe in Columbia.  We had a great time visiting with him.

The remainder of our week has been spent with Grandmommy and Grandaddy Bledsoe at the beach.  


It's been a lot of fun but we can't WAIT to get home to see Daddy!!  We miss him so much!
Towards the end of the week my grandmother, aunt, and great aunt all came to visit us.  It was such a fun girl weekend.  It was hard to get the seniors to venture beyond their own living room but once we got them out they had fun.

Fun at the Park with Louden

Ivy loves playing with her neighbor Louden.  He was born 7 hours after her.  They are so cute together!  




Ivy better be careful.  If her father catching her holding hands with a guy he might ground her!

What did they do to my husband?

So I guess part of being a youth ministers wife is letting go and letting students get their kicks out of altering my husbands apperance.   A few days ago they accomplished this by shaving his head.  Josh made a deal that if they got 350 kids to our kick off weekend then he would shave his head.   Unfortunately we made it to 350!  

Here is a "before" picture.....  Silky smooth  and beautiful long black hair.

The other youth ministers got off easier.  Below you see that Steve had to shave his legs.

Here is the final result......  It looks like he enrolled in the military.  boo hoo hoo!!   At least his hair grows fast.  I tried to give him a prenatal vitamin last night to speed up the growth.  I told him it was a multi vitamin and it would be good for him.   He made me show him the bottle and then saw it was prenatal.   Of course he wouldn't take it at that point but at least I tried.
