The Beaman Crew

Last Sunday, we joined Adam's mom, Gerald, Amy, Chris, Hayden, and Boompa at church in Snow Hill.  Here are a few pictures of Addison and Hayden hanging out on the steps after church... Addison's signature face... Grandma and Addison: Addison with her Trick or Treat bag that Grandma had personalized for her: I finally got a picture with my butter bean... DaDa and doodle: Chris and Hayden: Hayden's BIG, beautiful smile... I'm so happy that Addison has so many cousins to grow up with!  What a blessing!  As much as I wanted to take a nap after church, Addison was ready to go, go, go!  So, guess what we did...we went, went, went!  Ha!  I decided to take her out to a fall festival that was hosted by a church near our home.  It was so much fun!  We met Michelle and the gang out there.  We went on a hay ride a couple of times, a train ride, did a lot of dancing to some great, live music, ate a cherry icee, dug for shark's teeth (really just played in the di

 Last weekend was a busy one for the Beaman Family.  Friday, we joined my co-workers for a night of fun at the skating rink in Chocowinity.  Addison was not a fan at the beginning..   She warmed up, though, and joined DaDa on the rink... She loved going around with DaDa.  Mommy didn't have enough confidence to hold her while on skates!  I was too wobbly...   Dr Abdul, however, looked like a pro... The gang...(unfortunately, without Polly and Candy)... Thanks, Doc, for an awesome night-out!!! Saturday, we headed to Briley's Farm for more fun!  We met Michelle, Kessler, Kessler's parents, my Mom, and all the boys.  I think everyone had a great time!  We started off by getting everyone's height measurements...How Tall This Fall at Briley's?... Landon: Connor: Peyton: This is the best picture I could get of Luke and Addison: There were lots of animals to see.  Mrs. Shirley (Peyton and Connor's grandmother) feeding the rabbits: Luke and Addison checking out

Me, Mindy, Michelle, my cousin, Allen, and all the kiddos went to the Pitt County Fair for some fun, fun, fun. We started out by checking out the animals. Addison was very interested in the animals until a cow "moo'd" really loud 2 feet from her face. She immediately went into freak out mode, started crying and reaching for her cousin Allen. The funny thing is, I was holding her...but that cow was BIG...and she knew her big cousin, Allen, had a better chance of taking on that cow than her mama did! (Allen is like 10 feet taller than me....ha). It was so sweet! As soon as Allen took her, she stopped crying and was fine. I love that she does this! If she is ever scared, she wants her Daddy (or another male if her dad isn't there)...to protect her. If she is ever hurt, she wants her Mommy(or Grandmas, or Aunt, etc)...to comfort her. That's why God made Mommies and Daddies, Men and Women! Isn't God brilliant?!!! Addison and Luke had fun running around at the fa
