A Martin Minute

Well, I am a day late, but only because I was throwing a really cool party. (pics later) My Baby turned 4 yesterday. Impossible -afraid not. He is all about SuperHeros & HotWheels. He loves to talk, but not always in public - a little shy. He is "wonderfully made . . .in God's image." He loves his role as the Baby of the family & looks forward to Mommy time - all the time. When he grows up to be an AU football player you can all say "I knew him when." Thankfully he has a few years to decide between quarterback & running back. Whitty, We love you & who you are in, & to, our family. You are our baby blessing. Love, Mommy

Okay so what color do you think a pumpkin is? If you guessed white or orange then you are right. Saturday SuperDaddy turned down multiple AU vs FL tickets to stay home & spend some time with the family. He has been working 24/7 for 3 weeks now & since he finished a bid he took the day to devote to spending time with the kiddos. We headed off to "The Great Pumpkin Patch" about 30 miles N of our suburbia & took a wagon ride, picked out pumpkins, rode horses & went to the petting zoo & country store. We had a blast! Bay picked out a white pumpkin while the W's got traditional orange. They loved the petting zoo & all rode the ponies, but I am sure their favorite part was the hay pyramid that turned out to be a great spot to play "tackle daddy!" Maybe we were meant to be country folks??? Carnivals, Fall Festivals & birthdays coming up SOON! Happy Fall Y'all!

Captain "Cappi" Martin July 15, 2000 - October 3, 2011 Our first puppy has been sick for a few months & today she went to Heaven. We will miss you Cappi-girl. You were so protective of the kiddos. The baby says she is not dead - just with Jesus in Heaven which he went into great detail to explain where Heaven is - it is in the ground . . .under the house . . . under the grass . . . under the trees . . .etc. Big sis said, "Mom, just let him go with it."
