With her permission, I am displaying some of our best shots! As you can see she is very talented, and very reasonably priced! I hope ya'll enjoy!

Happy Mother's Day

Mother's Day is a special day/weekend for me....
I get special treatment. My kids are extra behavied.....ish.

I get to enjoy fine dining at the country club (Thanks, Dad!)
So does Mackenzie..he he



My loving, hard-working husband spends all weekend checking off the "Honey Do" List: assembling my present, putting a trampoline together, touch up painting in Alex's room and even changing the above average number of smelly diapers. Thanks, honey!
And now, my present...A PORCH SWING!!!! I have always wanted a porch swing.

Notice Mackenzie gently pushing me off the swing.

What a trio!!! I love my babies!!! Thanks for making me be a mother. I couldn't have asked for a better job!
Earlier on Saturday....We invited are good friends Lexi, Adam and Garrett over to play games and eat some hot dogs, hamburgers and watermelon.

Life is Good!!!

Dancing Queen & Drapes

This past Sunday was Gabby's fourth dance recital. She did such an awesome job!!! We were so proud of her!!! She even won an award for Most Improved Dancer! This was her first year to really be displaying showmanship, smiling and well...putting on a show!!
Doesn't she look like a porcelain ballerina? The kind you would put on a shelf in your room?





She was so surprised to win an award. I had to keep it a secret longer than I almost could. But, somehow managed to hold it in until award time.




And, the grandparents had to show their support!!!

In other news, I made a new addition to my breakfast nook...CURTAINS!!! I have been obsessing (Chad was getting sick and tired of me heading out to Joann's and Hobby Lobby every Saturday) about putting curtains in my kitchen. I finally researched a tutorial online at Nester's and found a ridiculously easy curtain to make. I have yet to stitch one stitch on these, however I do plan on hemming and lining them when I get a chance. But for now they provide so much warmth to my entire kitchen and den. I just love them.
