Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day. We enjoyed our day at my Uncle and Aunts house for a delicious dinner. It is fun to share this day all together with all the family in town. I was busy getting the girls ready this morning and the thought came to me I should let dad do this and I relax, but then I thought no I wouldn't know what to do that is what I do is be the mom. (well dad's can help) My girls make me who I am - a MOM.

This picture was taken last week, but I love it of the girls.

To my cousins and siblings:

My grandfather said the sweetest thing to me today. He said that in the car they kept talking about the great grandchildren and then he told my grandmother lets stop talking about them what about our grandchildren , so we got caught up on our grandchildren and what they were doing. Our children and grandchildren always hold a special part in our lives.

Fun filled weekend!!

We had a busy weekend. We first went to a spring festival. There were a lot of kid activities. Then there was a wedding shower for Tim and Jaime and then on Sunday we had a birthday for the two sisters (mom and aunt Susan).

Spring Break Trip

We enjoyed a trip to Marco Island, Florida for spring break. Marco Island is as far down on the west coast of Florida as you can go. It was a 10 hour trip down but well worth it. We spent the whole week enjoying the bright sun. The weather was perfect. It is beautiful there. Elizabeth fished with Earl on the beach. She caught a baby shark and a jack. She was quite excited about that. She got a few more also. Earl caught a nice snook but it was to long to keep, I sure wanted to keep that to cook. Great eating. I wish I had of gotten a family picture but I didn't . I believe we have found our spring destination now.

Easter party

We had an Easter party today and had our friends from around. Served peanut butter and jelly sandwiches with the grapes and chips. Then the kids were excited to look for the 300 eggs hid on the side lot. It took me about 20 min. to hid them and only about 5 min for them to find them. It was a lot of fun. Happy Easter.

Birthday Weekend

We had a busy weekend celebrating birthdays. It was Marks Birthday last week, us girls this week , Dad's (Tony) next week along with Addison's and Allie's. What a crowd to celebrate for. We had a ballgame and potluck with family and friends. You can see more photos on Tony and Becky's link, being I was a poor picture taker.

Cookie

You Are a Smiley Face Cookie

You're happy go lucky. So happy, in fact, it's a little past the point of normal sanity. You usually make those around you smile ... when you're not creeping them out!

What Kind of Cookie Are You?

Cowgirl

Elizabeth learned about cowboys and cowgirls this week at school and on Friday they dressed up. She was quite facinated with it. She had lots of questions. Are there still cowboys? Do they only live in Texas? Are Caroline and Kayleen a cowgirl? Now we want our own boots so we can dress like a cowgirl.
