Sewing

Several of you have asked to see pictures of what I've been making for Addie so here are just a few of them. They all were made from Sandi Henderson's patterns, which I dearly love!!

BUGZ

Today was the first grade spring musical, "BUGZ" at Rouse. It was the cutest program about...what else? Bugs! The kids did a super job and had a great time. Will was the Bug MC and also had a part in one of the songs, "Going on a Picnic".

Gatlinburg for Valentine's!!

I had a huge surprise for Valentine's Day. It was also Randy's 40th birthday, so he surprised me with a trip to the Smoky Mountains!!! We left on Thursday and came home on Sunday evening. We stayed in a cabin on top of a mountain (it was actually the same cabin that where we honeymooned) and it was so wonderful. We went to Cade's Cove, Newfound Gap, hiked some trails, and ate, ate, ate!! We even managed to get some shopping in (of course!!!). The kids stayed with my parents and had a wonderful time with them. Thank you Mimi and Papa for keeping them so we could get away for a few days!!

Will and Parker's 7th Birthday Celebration

This year, instead of doing a huge party, Will decided to take just a few people and go bowling with his best friend, Parker. Parker invited a bunch of his friends.They had an awesome Star Wars birthday cake. It was a huge hit...and not only was it beautiful, it was delicious too!!! The boys had a great time bowling and eating cake and ice cream. Here are just a few pictures from the morning.

Happy Birthday Will!

Will celebrated his 7th birthday last week on January 2. I can't believe my first baby is 7!!! Where in the world has the time gone? It seems like just a few weeks ago that we were bringing home that new, tiny little baby boy home from the hospital and embarking on the wonderful journey of parenthood. We're so blessed to have him. He's so very full of life and energy and fun, yet he's compassionate and at the same time, all little boy! He's such a good big brother to Addie and Wyatt...they're lucky to have him for a big brother and we're blessed to call him our son.
