It's been a long time!

H's 4th birthday party - Mickey Mouse themed (about a month before our trip to Disney World.)

Back To School

I can't believe it is that time of year again! Here are some pictures of big girl's first day of 2nd grade. It was a day filled with new adventures - riding a school bus for the first time, a new school, a new teacher, making new friends! So far, so good!

Happy 7th Birthday to My Princess

We love you so much! Hope this birthday is wonderful! I can't believe you are 7!!!

Mother's Day

A friend of mine sent this video to me and I wanted to share it. This is so sweet and a good reminder to savor every moment with our kids, even the ones that drive us crazy, because you never know when it will be a "last". Happy Mother's Day!!!

Strawberry Picking

In April, we took our yearly trip to the strawberry patch. Every year we take several pictures that are very similar to ones taken in previous years. It is so much fun to look back and see several years of pictures that look almost the same with the exception of the children being different ages. A fun tradition!

Happy 3rd Birthday Harrison!

Over the weekend, we celebrated with his little cousin Grayson who had just turned 2 years old. They had a Sesame Street themed party. Both boys LOVE Elmo so it seemed like a fun idea to have their family party together.

Today, April 28th, was Harrison's 3rd Birthday! We had an exciting evening full of his favorite things: pizza, presents, balloons, birthday cake, and icecream. Dee joined us in the festivities!

We love you so much Harrison. You are a precious gift from God. We are so thankful for you!
