Woah!

Since December

Well... we hosted the Williams for Christmas in Atlanta (first time I've been "home" for Christmas since 2003!) went to Haiti, announced that we were pregnant, I went on the jr class trip to NY, we visited the Hendrixes in OK, we celebrated Nana's 85th birthday in Nashville, I went in a girls' trip to Knoxville, found out at the end of March that we were having a girl,  spent spring break with the Hendrixrs in FL and Atlanta, celebrated Jessi Brimm's wedding in Nashville and my cousin Nathan's wedding in Chattanooga, Doug wrapped up student teaching and launched a huge job search, Doug received his second master's degree AND a job offer from Lipscomb Academy, lovely ladies hosted 3 baby showers for us, we had a Memorial Day weekend trip to FL with my family, we moved to Nashville at the end of June and today I am 38 weeks pregnant. What a busy few months!

Nashville so far

Yesterday we did some Christmas shopping, had lunch with Nana, and mom got a delicious looking apple cobbler.

Last night we went to the Stites for food, fun, and games- and lots of laughter! We love our Nashville friends!

Outing to Lexington

Yesterday Doug and I met Daniel, Kate, Leslie, and Brendan at the Childress Bistro in Lexington. It was a beautiful day, good food, and lots of laughter. I'm so thankful for my extended Branch fam!

Fall colors

A couple weeks ago we went to Stone Mountain and hiked the Cherokee trail. The fall colors were beautiful!

Happy

We couldn't be happier for this guy!

Dennis and Sherie (who made her wedding dress, by the way!) married on November 5th.  After 37 years of friendship, God brought them back together at just the right time.  The ceremony was very sweet and we were so glad to be able to be there.  It was fun to see old Brooks friends as well as our CBC family!
