Grandparent's Day at Ogletree!

Kimbell had Grandparent's Day at school today and both grandmothers came for a nice turkey lunch. Oh, did I mention I took the girls who "pigged out" on Kimbell's Thanksgiving meal...poor baby. We all had fun letting Kimbell show us around a little and sing, The Grandparents Song...hence the last picture where he is doing bunny ears on all the girls.

He's a flirt just like his daddy!

BTW- Doesn't he have two beautiful grandmothers!!!


Hope everyone has a Happy Turkey Day!

Dinner with Friends

Rona, Amy, Molly, and me

Joe and I went to eat dinner last night with our good friends at Moores Mill Club. We always have fun with them. They're the type that are like family....which are the best kind!(: You know me...I of course had my camera ready! When I pulled it out there was a big sigh. I just took one picture though and they seem to tolerate it because they love me so.(: I know yal do!

Anyway, I thought the picture turned out great of everyone! Gals, I'm sending you all a copy!

We had a wonderful night! Thanks for joining us.

Happy Birthday, Amy!
We love you!!!

Mally's Birthday Party at Parkway

Mally doesn't turn 3 for another week, but due to Thanksgiving coming up around the corner I took today to celebrate her birthday at Parkway preschool. She had fun eating cupcakes and playing with her friends. I made her a princess crown she loved and made little goodie bags and flags for her pink and brown yummy princess cupcakes!

Yes, I have a lot of time on my hands, Molly!(:

We had a fun day...

Happy Early Birthday, Princess!

We love ya, lots!

Best Friends!

I should have been extremely mad at the girls for destroying Mally's room, but when I went upstairs...after hearing a lot of thumps and thuds...I saw two girls loving and playing together like best friends. It melted my heart. They're only 14 months apart and it just warms my soul to think that they will hopefully always be there for each other...and I think they will.(:

I hope to install in them a sense of love and appreciation for one another. I'm so proud of the bond they have formed and now look at them as not just sisters, but best friends.

Happy Anniversary!!!

This day, 9 years ago, Joe and I married in a small church at six in the evening. We had a small, intimate ceremony just for family. It was the beginning of our wonderful marriage and bond that we still share together. I wouldn't change anything. I feel very lucky and blessed to still be happily married and have three beautiful children. I hope and pray we will always be together. Thank you, Joe, for trusting me, loving me, supporting me, and always being there for me...in good times and bad. I love you.

Also, thanks be to God. You had a plan for us. Thank you for loving us enough to show us the way to each other. We will always be eternally grateful.
