Happy 17th Birthday

Bennett Lee!

This guy is the youngest

Bennett, we love you to the moon and back

and can't believe our baby is 17!

 

Mother's Day 2014

On Mother's Day this year we

had gorgeous weather.

I have wanted to go to Lakewold Gardens 

for quite sometime and walk the grounds, 

so that's what I got to do!

I feel so blessed every time I look

at this picture, to be surrounded by 

these 4 precious people, it is 

all I ever wanted...

to be a Mom and a wife!

I just pretended like this was my estate for the day.

I truly could see myself living my life here :)

even if it was 1910...I would be so happy.

capturing her shot.

Seriously, though, how does this happen?

How did they become men so fast?

They all wrote the sweetest words in my 

card that I will cherish.

See what I mean??  This house, could you not live here?

None of this would be possible without Toby

so for him I am truly grateful!

Happy Mother's Day to my wonderful Mom.

She has walked a path that no mother should have to walk

and yet she smiles and pushes on to be the 

best Mom and Grammy we could ask for!

I love you Mom!

Happy 21st Birthday Powell!

Happy 21st Birthday

Powell Thomas

You make us proud every.single.day

by the way you choose to live your life.

We wish you a lifetime of happiness

and success!

I love that my boy

wanted to come home from school and

celebrate his day with his family!

Since we have quite the age range, we needed to find something

we could all do together!

So we kicked off the day with burgers at a fave spot...

and then we headed to do some family bowling!

What fun to buy my guy his first "legal" drink ;) 

and toast him into this new chapter!

We had such a fun night

with all of our family there...and my stepdad

Dennis who hadn't bowled in 30 years...

had the highest score!!

Happy Birthday P-dub!

We love you to the moon and back!

Easter 2014

We have family that comes to town every year 

to celebrate Easter.  It has become our tradition

to color eggs on Easter Saturday night!

I make enough eggs for 13 or more adults and kids

to color at least 2 or more each!

We all love it! 

This girl, her style, her smile, her sass

♥

My Mom has such a gorgeous yard

we always have an egg hunt for Lucy

None of the older kids look for eggs for themselves,

they all help Lucy!

These are my people!

Happy Easter!
