Double the blessing: Tiger football

Tiger football

Every year Aaron anxiously awaits the start of the LSU football season. Since we live in Canada we decided to get the college game day so we won't miss a game. Except today........ since Gustov is lingering in the gulf the game was changed to an earlier time, we weren't able to watch it since there was another game being broadcast. We were mad at first but we still got to watch college football and enjoy our gumbo. Football also brings the start of gumbo. Oh how I love this food.
Aaron's parents left today and got to New Orleans in time to sit in traffic on the way home to Lafayette. Now the preparations for the storm start. I pray that his family (they all live in SW Louisiana) are safe from this monster storm.

Lily playing before bed.

Nana had a bright idea while she was here...... bathe the babies in the sink. Our tub is so deep that it's hard to bathe the babies in there without hurting your back. The sink is so much better. Here are some pics from their bath tonight.

Wow, Canada, huh? That's a long way from home. At least you have your gumbo recipe :)

BTW, Lily is one of the names we SERIOUSLY considered for our little girl.

Look forward to reading more from you...; August 30, 2008 at 5:51 PM

I'll be praying for Aaron's family too!; August 31, 2008 at 1:55 PM

Ashley
Ashley is a smart, funny, beautiful, free spirited and sweet 19 year old. She loves music and acting goofy. She wants to be a organic chef when she is done with school. She knows what she wants and doesn't let anyone stand in her way. Ashley moved to Austin in 2013 to fulfill her dream of going to Le Cordon Bleu culinary school. While in Austin Ashley slipped into the darker side of the city. It is with a heavy heart that I say Ashley passed away on April 6th, 2014.

Preston
Preston is such a boy who makes us laugh. He loves to jump, run, scream, climb but also loves to snuggle. I love seeing his little mind at work. Preston will be 8 on Halloween.

Lillian
Lily is the princess of the family. She has us all tricked into doing whatever she wants. She loves to play dress up and read her books. She always has a smile on her sweet face. Lily will be 8 on Halloween.

Carly

Our newest baby girl. We didn't find out the gender (since this is our last) we were completely shocked that she was a she. We just assumed boy. You know the way I was carrying, stupid myths! Anyway we are completely over the moon in love with our precious Carly. She is certainly our firecracker. Carly will be 3 in April.
