Goodbye and Hello

Well, we had to say our goodbye's to Grammy and Grampy and head back east to say hello to our new home of New Jersey! We didn't know what to expect as far as our new state goes, but I think we have been pleasantly surprised! We are still getting settled in, but the guest room is just about ready for visitors!

Saying goodbye.

Let's hit the road folks!

Joel received an award from OCS for all of his hard work these past three years.

Commander Flynn pins a new medal on Joel.

Titus begins his supervision of the unpacking.

Cuddling on Joel's HUGE pod from Brookstone. This is not your mom's beanbag.

Putting on shoes for our second daily walk.

Texas Bound

We headed to Texas to see family before making the big move to New Jersey. We had a great time, although it was quite whirlwind! Titus was not sure about all of the new faces, but eventually he became comfortable, especially with his cousin, Cash.

Stopping for a bite to eat in Bowling Green.

We met up with Dad Ferguson to check out some land in East Texas. The land was a "no," but the family time was a definite "yes!"

My mom taught Titus to raise his arms when he hears, "So Big!"

Titus loving on his little cousin, Cash.

Staying cool.

Grandpa and Titus exploring.

Gran bought a wagon so all of her grandkids could enjoy it. Titus loved it!

An apple a day....

Titus and his great uncle Kelly.

Titus and Quinn getting dirty.

Titus with his Great Aunt Lida and great grandmother, Flora.


Obviously, Titus wants some of his Great Uncle Chris's pizza.


He loved Lida's giraffe.

I know this is not a flattering picture, but despite Titus's finger, it is sort of endearing!
