My Blog

Thanks for stopping by! I use to blog to "keep in touch," I use to blog to brag, I use to blog for an outlet. I have now realized I blog because these are the things I want my children to know/remember about our life together as a family. These days won't stop passing, but having a record of it when it is all a memory will be priceless to me.
I read your blog because I love you!

They came home! For reals!

I have to admit that having my parents gone was MUCH HARDER than I thought it would be. Maybe it was because I had so many life changing events happen while they were gone but I really wasn't prepared for how hard it was going to be. Now I realize that they probably will go out again and I just hope that I don't have another baby while they are gone. They flew home on January 20th. All of my brothers and sisters were there. In fact the only person we were missing was a brother-in-law of mine who couldn't make it. My brother Rustin didn't tell us but he happened to catch the same flight from Georgia home. He sat between them! So he happened to get some great one on one time with them. As soon as we caught sight of them we all started hollering and cheering. I guess the Mangum family is always a spectacle when in public!

This is everyone that was there to greet them minus my cousin Mark and his wife Michelle who were taking the pictures for all of us.

Ok- so I was in a black and white mood when I was editing pictures today but don't you think we all look stunning in black and white? (Not to mention that the picture was a little grainy)



Here are my parents meeting the twins for the first time :)
It was so great being home with everyone. Of course we saw a lot of this... my parents were a little jet lagged. I hope they weren't too overwhelmed with everything because the weekend just got a lot crazier!
