Tuscaloosa

Rebecca!

This weekend we sold our house! We went down to Tuscaloosa and closed on Friday. Everything went fine. It is so great to have that behind us!

We stayed the weekend with our friends Kelsey and Clark. We really enjoyed see them again and visiting with everyone in the PhD program.

Kelsey and Clark kept Rebecca while Matt and I went to the game with our friends Andy and Sarah. Our seats were great! We had a great time!! Sarah would not believe me that me and two of my friends once started the wave at an Alabama football game. We did. And it went around 5 times.

On Sunday we stopped on the way home to visit with friends in Birmingham and have brunch at Byron's. So great to see everyone again!

A new tooth and a new job

So cute!


We have really enjoyed the play ground at our apartment! The weather has been so nice lately. I love the fall!

In Rebecca news, our little cutie has a new tooth. Finally!

She did great at her one year check up. She is in the 80th percentile for height and 20th percentile for for weight.

It is hard to believe she is only in the 20th percentile for weight, she has a HEALTHY appetite. Here she is dismayed that I am trying to give her broccoli when all she wants is more yeast rolls.

In mama news, I got a job! I started last Wednesday as a tax accountant at BB&T. I'm still getting settled but I really like it so far.

The weekend before last was my birthday. Here are the awesome presents Matt got me. We went to see the Avett Brothers in Greensboro at the amphitheater. So much fun!

This weekend was Miss Joan's birthday. We went to Elkin for church and for lunch to celebrate.

We spent Saturday watching college football with the Bentons. Roll Tide!

More words, a new baby and Vegas

Rebecca running around outside!

Playing with her exersaucer.

She is such a big girl! I know I say that every week but she is constantly changing and I just can't ever get over it. She has now started saying eyes and uh-oh. So smart! She'll also say hi when she picks up our phones. She likes to pretend pretty much anything is a cell phone- including her baby doll.

We really enjoyed watching football all day last Saturday. Alabama beat Arkansas- Roll Tide!

We also got to visit with our friends Chrissy and Jason and meet their beautiful new baby girl, Marylou. Precious!

This weekend was my cousin Andrew's wedding- in Vegas!! Rebecca spent the weekend with her Aunt Maria, soon-to-be Uncle Joseph and Oma and Papa. We really missed her but she did great! Here are Matt and I at the wedding ceremony ceremony at Cesar's Palace.

I had never been to Las Vegas before and it was to fun to go with my whole family. Christina on the Strip.

The cousins! We're all close in age and grew up going to the beach together. So strange to see everyone all grown up.

And the most fun night of all! Black jack in the food court- oh yeah!! Winner's all around!
