Disney On Ice

Today we took Grace to see Disney on Ice.  Not only was she excited and had a great time, but there was just enough adult humor to keep Troy and I entertained as well.  I cannot wait to take her to Disney World!!

She asked to wear her Cinderella dress



Beautiful day in downtown Nashville


She skipped she was so excited!!





We had great seats!







The expressions on her face were priceless.  This is the best photo I got though.

































NACADA Conference Fun - Oct 4-6

Part of this week myself and several of my colleagues spent time with about 3000 other advising professionals from across the country.  We had a great time and some good professional development.  Enjoy a glimpse of our fun.

Cool thing about higher ed conference, they make you feel important with lots of ribbons on your name tag.  

Opening session with 3000 of our closest friends.

Brittany (i mean Brandie) & Danielle enjoying the opening reception yummies.


Tyler, Becca and I had a LARGE turnout for our presentation....350 plus!

We got these nice plaques for being the best of Region 3 presenters.  Go Us!

Tyler was a Hospitality Chair for the conference so many of us helped with his committee and spent time in "the box" answering really strange questions and trying to direct people around the Opryland hotel.

Our GA John representing us well at his poster session.


On Saturday we all had the privilege of hearing from Marsha Baxter Magolda who is an authority in higher education and someone we all read about in graduate school.  She was great!


September Trip to NC

In the middle of September we enjoyed a long weekend in NC.  We relaxed, spent time with our family and enjoyed a beautiful day in Chapel Hill for a football game.  Enjoy some photos from our trip.

Looking cute one day the week before we left for NC. 
Made to post this picture because she looks so grown!!

Playing at the airport before heading to NC


I love this little man!  So blessed to call him my nephew.

She loves her Aunt Sandy

Mom's Birthday was the week after we were in NC, so we had a little celebrating while we were visiting.


This is what Grace picked out for granny.  It is a little button that makes funny comments about grannies.  It was pretty funny!



As we celebrated granny...Huntley napped!

On Saturday we enjoyed some fabulous weather to see the Tarheels win!



Yummy tailgate food!

Huntley needed a nap before the game







The two cutest kids in the world, right?








Cheering on the Tarheels with her papa
