Horses

Yesterday we finally got enough of the fence built at our new house that we were able to bring our horses over to their new home.
They were all very excited to get here & especially loved the whole field of new green grass that is all theirs to eat! This was the first time Baby Lacy rode on the trailer and it was quite an adventure getting her on there but she came off easily and has been jumping around and playing since she got here.
This is going to make things so much easier. No more going back over and feeding the horses ever day or going back over so Abigail can ride. Now they are all right here in the back yard. So excited to be able to watch Baby Lacy grow more and more each day!

Roll Tide Roll!!

My favorite time of the year is in full force! Football Season!!!
Of course living 12 hours away we don't get to go to every game anymore but we get to as many as we can! And since we played Penn State in Happy Valley today that was closer than a home game for us.
Penn State was the first game we were able to go to this season and we had so much fun!! Dad & mom drove up and Justice flew in. We rented an RV for the weekend and drove over on Thursday for an eventful weekend full of Alabama football! The Penn State fans were so overly nice and went out of their way to welcome you to Happy Valley.
We also got to make the Alabama vs. Arkansas game. Lee drove down a few days early and Abigail and I had a new experience by taking the train! Whew what an experience indeed! Overnight, 18 hours on a train with pretty much no sleep makes for a tired Katie. It was neat to be able to see site that we normally don't get to see while driving or flying, but next time we will definitely be in the sleeper car! We stayed with Lees family in Tuscaloosa for the weekend and it was good to get to see everyone & for Abigail to get to see and hang out with her cousins Davis, Libba & Turner some.
The game turned out to be great! Not near as close as we were expecting, which is just fine with me! My heart can't take the close ones!
Can't wait for the homecoming game this weekend and for the rest of the season! Although I am wanting it to go slowly by because I don't want the season to end!


Headed to the game



Peachy Paterno! YUM!!









September came & went

September came so quickly & then like a flash it was gone!
 September brought the start of a few exciting things though.



Abigail started to school!!

Washington

It's been forever since I was on here last. We had a busy busy summer. The highlight of our summer was our trip out to Washington. As soon as we landed we hit the ground running.


Lunch on Bainbridge Island

Just a little windy on the ferry

On top of the hotel in Sequim, ready to head to the lavender farms.
