Happy New Year from The Williams!

Christmas came & went like a flash, but with many blessings this year! We spent lots of time with family -- having both Wes & Amy's families here, along w/Mom & Dad for a Christmas get-together; also heading to Hartselle to spend some time with Grandaddy and Joyce; Christmas Eve with Cory's family; Christmas Day with Cory's parents for lunch; then both families were here (some, anyway) for a small piano recital for Ben on Christmas Day. The boys also had a combined birthday party at Pump It Up this year, but will also have family dinners at home to celebrate. Ben turned 10 in November and Jake will be turning 6 in January..wow! Many blessings to you ALL and your families during the coming year!

THANKSGIVING 2009

Kids with our new kitten, Oreo. Here's hoping the THIRD time's a charm!

Open House at the boys' school - This is in Jake's kindergarten class; Ben just in from basketball practice. No, Ally isn't sucking her thumb, just being bashful b/c everyone was telling her how cute she was ;) Next stop was his classroom, but he wasn't "up" for us photographing him at his desk :)

Ben is 10!

TEN years with BEN! God has blessed us beyond measure since this little soul came into our lives. There is no doubt that God gives us children to teach us lessons on love, humility, selflessness..the list is endless. We thank God for you everyday, Ben. So proud of the young man he is becoming. Here's looking forward to TEN more..and many more!

We have a new kitten! *Sigh* YES...this is the 3rd one in a year! 3rd one's a charm, right? If you're not sure what I'm referring to, when I say, "3rd one in a year," I don't mean that we now have 3 cats, I mean this is the 3rd attempt at owning a cat. This one is a male and is the most affectionate lil' thing! His name is "Oreo" - appropriately named b/c of his black & white coat. The kids just love him. Hope he's here to stay! Fingers (and paws) crossed!

Williams Wednesday - 50's day

Today is the 50th Day of School..wow! The boys' school celebrated with a 50's day and sock hop after school (pics coming). The boys TOTALLY got into character! Also, added a pic of Ally. Some days she's just too cute for words..so pictures are best. Happy Fall, Y'all!!

The kids had a 2-day Fall Break this week. We went to the new exhibit at the Memphis Zoo called "Teton Trek." This is the lodge behind the kids in the picture above. Huge, huh? It was enormous, but no animals were out. We spent a lot of our time with the polar bears & sea lions. They were very playful w/the kids (behind the glass). It was a good day out of the house in the midst of all this rain.

Happy Fall, Y'all!!!
