Sorry, its taken me so long to blog, but we have been very busy. The weekend before Thanksgiving we headed to Kentucky to drop off Walker at Jules and Pops house for his first weekend by himself with them. Then Patrick and I headed to see our dear friends in Oxford, Mississippi and to go to the Ole Miss/LSU football game. We had so much fun and enjoyed seeing everyone. I especially enjoyed seeing my dear friend Lauriebeth's little boy, Carson and my other dear friend Shawn's little girl, Kaitlyn. They are both 3 months old and after spending time with them I miss the little baby stuff. What I would do if Walker would be that still again:):)


After spending the weekend in Mississippi we headed back to Kentucky to spend the week with Pops, Jules, Uncle Matt, Moke and Beck. We had so much fun and Walker especially loved all of the attention. Jules and Pops had our week planned while we were there, but we were also able to relax.
We were able to catch a few basketball games while visiting. CCU was playing in a preseason NIT tournament and they played at WKU. We ended up getting to see CCU play and WKU. Walker wasn't too sure about being so close to Big Red. CCU pulled out 1 W and 1 L. Go Chants and Go Tops!!
We went to the playground almost everyday. We had to adjust to the cooler temps, but Walker didn't seem to mind at all. He loved the slides and climbing up and down the steps. He truly has NO FEAR. He didn't hesitate to go down head first on either slide. I was a little nervous about the circular slide, but he LOVED it:)
Mooo Mooo- has Walker makes the cow sound:) Pops took us to the university farm and we were able to meet Baby Gary and see the diary cows. The students named this Jersey bull after Pops, "Gary". Baby Gary has turned into a very popular calf. Pops and Jules arrived at the farm just before Baby Gary was born and the students thought it would be perfect to name him "Gary". We watched the diary cows being milked and even got to see a baby calf drink two bottles. Walker wouldn't stop saying.......Mooo Mooo Mooo Mooo.
We enjoyed visiting with Moke and Beck, Walker's great grandparents for a few days. They couldn't believe how much he had changed since they last saw him. Walker loved giving Beck kisses and reading books. Thanksgiving would not have been the same without seeing them. They are two very special people and we love you two lots!! Walker also enjoyed his Uncle Matt or as Walker says, "Matt Matt". It's very cute. He loved reading his favorite books with Uncle Matt Matt. We may not see Uncle Matt Matt in person very much, but we do get to see him and talk to him every night on Skype.
Walker had so much fun playing in the leaves and riding in the wheelbarrow. He loved Patrick throwing him in the middle of the leaves.
Thanksgiving at The Ransdell's was one we will never forget and we look forward to many more memories together! We love all of you and we are so lucky to be able to share our happy, beautiful little boy with you!!

One thing for sure-WALKER has wonderful grandparents in KY that makes really nice, loving memories for him to remember. Ask what is the best for a little boy and you can see the love surrounding him and just know that God is providing the "prescription" for him to grow into a wonderful man one day.I absolutely loved the photos and reading your diary,Brooke-honey-you should write a book-you can read all the love between the lines-Moppy
