Dinner with friends...

Friday was a fun time for us all.  We were able to have pizza with a few goods friends from Marietta.  It's always fun to be with old friends and to meet the newest addition to the Adams family baby Asher.

Thanksgiving 2008

It was Thanksgiving with the Wilders this year.  We traveled down on Thursday and enjoyed spending the day with Jason's family.  I really was forcing a picture with the girls together and should have let them be.  Oh well... at least I got one of Violet in for her baby book!

HELP!

I lost my cell phone over the weekend and it contained a lot of important info, well to me anyway. I used it as a PDA so all my contact...email,address and phone numbers lost along with it.  I'm so mad that I didn't back any of that up!  So if you read our blog  I need your contact info, please. Email me at katywilder@carolina.rr.com

thanks, Katy

Fall leaves...

I wanted to share some of the beautiful trees that surround our home.  Jason and I were amazed at the colors and experienced a great first fall with our girls.  I don't know if we forget or this was truly one of the most beautiful falls I've experienced.  Lu enjoyed playing in the piles and I mean piles.  (we don't know what to do with our abundence of leaves!)  Most leaves have fallen now and we have a lot of work but wanted you to share just a few pics.  

Falcons vs Pathers...house divided!

hahah  So to fill you in...Jason is an Atlanta Falcons fan and has not been able to watch a game all season, he says there are "haters" here.  The Carolina Pathers  stadium is about 15-20 mins from our home so we are surrounded by NFL.  I've never seen anything like it!   It is a crazy adjustment being born and living in college football all our lives.  No one talks about college football at all!! Well, Jason has made the transition and has been on me all season to watch, I don't care to pro!  He wanted me to pick a team for the season well he picked it for me by getting me my first NFL shirt.  So we had our first 'house divided' game.  Jason cooked gumbo and we supported our teams.   I thought the girls would for sure be on my side but Lu wanted to just be for Auburn, love it!  Well, the Falcons pulled through for Jason and Violet and I lost our first game as Panther fans!  

Mary and Joseph breakfast..

Saturday our church had a breakfast and many activities to prepare the family for the advent season.  It was a great event and we all enjoyed.   Preparing for Christmas is always a special time for me and now with our family we can begin to share this special time with the girls.  Lu really "got" the baby Jesus last year and I love that is her foundation of Christmas.  It will be a little different this year but we are excited about experiencing a Charlotte Christmas. 

 They took this photo of us when we saw baby Jesus.  

(I know it isn't the best but it rare we all make a picture!)

And Lu was so helpful working on our advent wreath while Viley watched.

Check your bank statement...

This is an strange post, I know...

but if you can make sure you check your banking account for purchases.  

My mom and sister bank at REGIONS and both had unauthorized charges.  

They have since heard that a co-worker and a few friends have had similar situations.  All banking with REGIONS.  

 Hope this is of help!
