Snack Time!


Gracie made super cute caterpillars and butterfly snacks to take to school when it was her turn to bring snacks!  Actually Grammy did most of the work...and Mommy and Gracie just helped....I thought they turned out pretty cute...Love Family Fun magazine for great ideas!

Spring is here!

We rushed to Ada on Saturday to visit my sweet Grandma who is turning 98 in June.  She is doing fine, really healthy for her age, it is just sad to see her memory fade.....I remember having long talks with her and now its hard for her to hold a conversation.  :(  We had a good lunch with my cousin Megan and her fiance Brent, and then went to the park.  Ada has one of the best parks, its really pretty....and the girls had fun playing and running around!  I tried to get some good pics of all 3 of them, but this is the best I got..

The girls love playing at the park!  The only way I could get then to leave is to bribe them with ice cream!

Happy Birthday Uncle Nate!

Nate turned 28 yesterday and the girls had a great time planning his birthday!  We had a sports theme party because he likes "baseball" and they went around the house gathering up every orange thing they could find because Nate's favorite color is orange. :)

Even Abby joined in the fun!

Outdoor fun!

It is finally starting to get warmer in OK....This weather is so crazy, and the girls love to play outside....In fact this weekend we are planting a huge garden and I am soooo excited about eating fresh veggies all summer long!  The girls are constantly playing race up and down the front porch....I don't know why Emma insists on riding the baby car!

I heart faces photo challege: Best face of February 2011


IMG_5020ppcsrbw

This is my favorite face from February......I didn't like February that much since my husband left for Afghanistan with the Marine Corps.....but my sweet new baby and my big girls made me happy, even if we were all sad that Daddy left.  This is my precious 4 month old Abby!  I love her pouty lip!  Check out the other entries here!

Good Morning Sunshine!

Took some pics of my baby waking up this morning.....I love her sweet smile when I go in to get her up....this was actually her second time getting up....the first time she got up was 5 am.....I put her back to bed and she woke up again about 8!  Abby is such a sweet baby!

Playing at the park!

IMG_5521tt

We had a blast playing at the park!   Emma has no fear and will do every slide....Gracie will go down most of the slides, just not the biggest ones....She is so funny how she is timid about certain things....not Em, who is constantly climbing on everything, falling off stuff, and getting hurt all the time!  The kids loved the park, but I'm still getting used to crazy wind all the time....makes me miss North Carolina!

This park is awesome and so great that it is super close to my parent's house!
