Baby Jake

Mike and I had our first son on May 3, 2008. He weighted 9lbs 14oz. You can say he was a big boy. They enduced me on Friday morning and I had him on Saturday at 2:06am. It was a very long day, but I would not trade it for the world. He is the most amazing addition to our life ever. I never thought I could love someone as much as we love him, he is perfect.

The Wedding Day

The best day of my life April 22, 2007. Mike and I get married at The Cottrell Ranch in Dahlonega Georgia. It was an outside wedding and the reception was in a very nice "barn." Our colors were red and black. My maid of honor was Jenny Ham the bridesmaids were Tabitha, Kaley, Chrisitn, Carlie, Sarah, and Jr. Bridesmaid CaraBeth. The best man was David Beard the groomsmen were Derek, Trevor, Brandon, Josh, Will, and Jr. Groomsmen Cade. We had the best time at our wedding and reception. We left from the reception in a helicopter (I did not know until we walked out to leave).















The Engagement

Mike and I got engaged on March 11th 2005. I met him at his house to pick him and Bo up to go to the park. We were going to the park to take pictures of Bo for a Christmas gift I was doing for Mike. After we took the pictures of Bo, Mike said "I have something I want Bo to wear for a picture." So Mike but a blue bandana on Bo. As soon as Bo was dressed he came running to me and sat right next to my foot. I looked at him twice before I noticed what he was wearing. The bandana said " Will you Marry Us" and it had little dog feet on it also. After I read it I saw Mike on one knee with a box in his hand. I was so shocked. That I made him ask me again. So of course I said "YES". After we left we called oour parents and shared the great news.

The story of us

Well, I am doing a blog site to keep everybody updated with whats going on in our family.


Mike and I started dating in March of 2002. If you ask him how we meet he will tell you that I use to stalk him :). He thinks that's funny. Mike and I went to high school together at North Hall High and graduated together. We meet when I came home from West Georgia. Julie and I use to always go eat at O'Charley's, cause that is where Mike worked at the time. To tell you the truth I'm not real sure how we started dating. I know he called me on my 20th birthday and told me to give him a call when I got back in town. So of course I did and we just hit it off from there. We are both huge Georgia fans, love our families, love God and enjoy being outside. So I knew we were going to hit it off pretty good.
