Rainbow Party Fun!

Saturday was Morgan's 3rd birthday! Can you believe it? My sweet baby is three! To celebrate we had a rainbow party in the backyard. It was a really chilly day- the first true cold day of the season- but no rain! So we just bundled the kids up and let them run and play. Morgan and her friends had a blast! We decorated the backyard in bright colors, served some of her favorite foods and had big fun.

After the party, our family stayed for dinner and we watched the Dawgs play Alabama. Sadly, the Dawgs couldn't pull out a win to cap off an otherwise perfect day. We were so thankful for all the people who came from near and far to celebrate Morgan's special day. It is such a blessing to see how loved our girl truly is!

Perfection

Last night we went back to Starkville to watch our Dawgs continue to win! I had to work all day so there was no tailgating for the Leddy family. But the late kickoff meant I could still go to the actual game so I was pumped! Jeff and Morgan picked me up from work and off we went. It was our Homecoming and Morgan loved seeing the "princesses" walk across the field. She thought it was great! She kept asking which one was Cinderella. I told her the one with the crown of course! Morgan had finally warmed up to the two older gentlemen that sit behind us at every game. After every touchdown she would have to turn around and give both of them a high five. She even shared her popcorn! They are really sweet with her. Another win makes our Bulldogs 7-0!

Morgan's favorite part...the fireworks!

I work out!

So this is the silliness that I work in! This week we filmed a work out video. Yes, I did. But it's for kids! So surely I could do it, right? We were trying to give something fun and simple for teachers to be able to do with their kids in the classroom. But of course, HealthWorks! style!

A little stunting for the day...when was the last time I did this?

And stretch

And bend

And up

Go Racers!

Last weekend was another one for the record books! Morgan and I went to Murray to celebrate Murray State's Homecoming with the whole crew. It was a great time! State played Tennessee that weekend so Jeff went to Starkville to cheer on the Dawgs- which turned out to be a great game! The game in Murray was not so great, but everything else made up for it. My poor Momma was so sick the whole weekend. She was such a trooper and made it through it all. I felt so bad for her! But she wouldn't have missed out for anything. Even bronchitis can't stop her! It just slows her down a bit.

Morgan and I got there on Thursday so we could help Mom get things together before everyone got to town. Friday night I got to have date night be my Dad's date for a dinner he had. I was glad to fill in for Mom! Then we went to Midnight Madness to start Racer basketball.

Saturday began the full day of fun! We got up and cooking early. After the crowd arrived at the house and grabbed a drink, we headed up the hill to watch the Homecoming parade. The best thing is that our house is two blocks from the parade routes- it's perfect! After we fully cheered and harassed the floats for candy ("Look cute Morgan! Then they give you candy!"), we came back home for brunch. As always it was wonderful!! We all got to visit and watch some early football before going to the game. The game was a shootout and we left a bit early to come home and get dinner started. After some yummy barbecue, we cheered on the Dawgs! Watching them win was icing on the cake!

It was a great weekend and Morgan slept the whole way home!
