It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

Here is a peek at the start of Grayson's first Christmas, there is more to come!

Grayson and his daddy restored a family heirloom for my early Christmas present, so sweet!
This was Jason's mema's table and he sanded it, refinished, and polished it secretly...

Grayson sitting up, he loves it and is getting pretty good at it!
We took Grayson to see the lights in St. Augustine on the bay and down town, we had so much fun!
Daddy trying to look like Grayson, he is wide eyed and full of wonder all of the time!
Being able to do these things with him and Jason is the real blessing, it doesn't matter what is going on, or what kind of mood I am in, they make me smile!
To top it all of we took him to a pizza place on St. George Street where he was practically crawling on the table and being such a sweet heart!


We have just begun our Christmas travels, this is the tree at Grayson's papa's house (my dad) with his presents underneath. Note, they are all his...how are we going to get them in our car we don't know. Grayson has a onesie that says, "Who needs Santa I have Grandparents!" More to come as we continue on...it is amazing, warm, funny, every good emotion wrapped into one!

See you soon!!

Grayson's dedication weekend!

This little guy was all to happy to get started on his big weekend! He had family coming in from out of town, Santa to see with his cousin, Hannan, and a baby dedication to top it all off! We were so blessed by all of those who took the time to make this day special for Grayson!

Garner/Faircloth Family Reunion



We had a wondeful time this past weekend in Savannah, where Michael, Laura, Josh, Madison, and Joseph opened up their home and hosted a reunion to remember! Good food, make that tremendous food, laughs, stories, babies, and memories filled the weekend. I think this needs to be a tradition in every family and I certainly look forward to the next one!






The first night down town, shrimp and pralines!











Of course I had to put this one on here, the hat was hilarious, my little bunny!
Last, but not least, our hosts, Laura and Michael, love ya'll!!!

A Happy Thanksgiving!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

I am almost 6 months old!




















We hope this finds all of you full and happy as you come away from the last week's events! Thanksgiving this year was full of fun and food for all of us, Grayson got to spend time with everyone and is ready for Christmas travels! But before that we have a family reunion to attend this weekend and it is sure to be a good time as well. For those of you who may have known and for anyone reading our blog, just before Thanksgiving we lost a dear friend, Hugo, in a car accident. We just ask that you pray for his family who resides in Guatemala and his brothers who are here in the United States trying to get him home to be buried. If you look back to one of our posts, we have a picture of Hugo and Grayson. He will be missed and it reminded us just how important it is to spend time together when we can. We love you all!














No doubt I love to eat and there isn't a vegetable or fruit yet I haven't gobbled!


I got to spend some time with my cousin Hannan, and we laughed and played with our daddys!









We played on cousin Hannan's laptop and laughed at one another...but mostly how silly our daddys were being!




Daddy took this picture while hunting with Papa Jay!

Time flies when you're having fun!

Here is a little recap in pictures of what Grayson has been up to lately... we will start with the most recent!





We enjoyed our church's family fun night!

Grayson did too, but caught up on his sleep!


Mimi and Mom took me to pick out some pumpkins....



I couldn't decide which one, there were so many!





Mom and Me, the pumpkins are almost as big as me!



Mimi and I had so much fun that day!



Off to our nation's capital, mom had a residency for school, so dad and I tagged along!



The Vietnam Wall



See what a big boy I am? I am as tall as the Washington Monument...




At the Lincoln Memorial, mom's favorite!





This is what I did most of the time, the stroller was just so relaxing!



While we were there, we celebrated dad's birthday, 27 and still sharp, good thing I take after him!



At the hotel with dad while mom was away...read the paper, caught up on my tv shows, and returned some calls!


First time in the pool, this trip just had a lot of firsts!


Got to see dad's good friend, Jim in DC too!



I did pretty good flying too...well, ask daddy about that one...I am a stinker!



Dad's birthday with the family...can't tell here, but he has no idea about his party! I am not sure about these pictures, but had fun with cousin Hannan and Uncle Jay!



Me and Grandma Sha relaxing!


Abe had fun too on this trip, he got to play outside and see his doggy cousin Abbey!


Visited with Papa Jay and got a special gift Flossy made me!


BCI guys, me too one day!

Grayson went to his first UGA game (well not the game, but Athens!).

Tailgating with Mom, Dad, and Nancy

We had to stop off and see Leslie and Jake, I even gave them a smile or two!


Got to tailgate with Mom's sorority sisters (Katie, Marie, and Leslie) and the guys too (Bryant, Ron, Jason, and Daddy of course!).

Mimi had me and I had my fist!
Hung out at AGR to grab a bite to eat and take some pictures!
Grayson also has been just chillin' at home and cuddling up with Daddy on his lunch breaks!
We also love to go to Element (our church's youth service) on Wednesday nights...
What mean grillers!

Me and mom just watched and waited for the good food...
Love you all!
Grayson, Jason, Lindsey, and Abe too!

Mood music if you want
