Grandparents Day & The Game

Grandparents Day
Starting with Simms' preschool program today...it was in honor of Grandparents Day, and so precious. From the centerpieces at our family's table, to the adorable songs they sang, I am so happy Simms is a part of this preschool. Not just for the cute programs, but also for what she is already doing academically. She is already working on sight words, has learned the pledge and basically her preschool has already far exceeded my expectations! The program was this morning and Simms was so happy Minnie and Ninnie were there, and even though she was missing Gigi and Papa, she had a great time at the game with them this weekend!

saying the blessing..I spy open eyes

I love this pictures..not only are Simms and Lanier's mamas old friends, but so are their grandaddies..I even heard them referring to each other by their old nicknames..one of the reasons I love raising Simms here..never thought I'd say it, but now that we have kids, I love raising them in the small town where I was raised

Cope had a fun time himself on the playground

Adorable keepsake centerpiece wiht Simms' name painted on the base. Simms put it here, lining it up so meticulously just like her Daddy. I love it, but I love the bowl too and we all know what Cope would do to both of them, so it has been moved. :)
I hate that I didn't get a picture of Simms with Minnie and Ninnie, but it was a little chaotic keeping up with Cope and giving Simms attention too..

The Game
We had a lot of fun in Auburn Saturday and are so thankful for that win! It was a long day tailgating. Fun but long. Becca and I kept 4 kiddos 4 and under at the bus during the game, and energized doesn't even come close to describing that foursome! They had so much fun together. From Tiger Walk, to tailgating, to the BIG WIN, and then walking to Toomer's Corner {well Dru walked Simms, Cope and Adeline..by himself..with no stroller..I happily let them go while I stayed at the bus :)} we were so glad we went!

A rare photo opportunity

Cope loved Mr. Bucky's hat, but it obviously didn't fit him..so..

Papa got him his own from the bookstore

Fun memories being made with Simms, Adeline and Lilla..and

Getting pumped up before the game

And celebrating the win after

These 3 even rolled Dru

And I can't imagine what was going through his head, as he attempts this kind of behavior at home on a daily basis!
WAR EAGLE!!
