Mary-Beth's first soccer game

I am proud of my sweet girl. She was scared to death and even cried out in the field as she was there. But by the end of the game she actually tried to kick the ball one time. The coach is very sweet and would encourage her the whole time. He always let her throw the ball in. I feel like it will just take some time for her to get comfortable with the game.

"My Lady"

Lane has become fascinated with lady bugs. It always amazes me that he can always find one somewhere in the house----everyday----. He is so funny because he walks around saying I need to find "my lady". It is so cute. He always wants to sleep and eat with them there. I don't normally let him sleep with them, but one day he asked me (like always) if he could let the lady bug take a nap with him. So I let him this day and he held him in his hand the whole 2 1/2 to 3 hrs. When he woke up he opened his and and the lady bug was there. I just knew it was dead. But, much to my surprise, the lady bug began to crawl. Lane then said, look mommy my lady woke up. He is so funny about these little bugs.

Princess Party

We had a princess party at church tonight. I had to post some of the silly pics of some people. Everyone had a really fun time. Mary, Mary-Beth, and Susan got the awards for the "Most Princess".

Lane's Trip to Jacksonville Florida

He seemed to have had a really good time with Nana and Papa. I think it was really good for him to have a break from Momma. However, we missed him tons....
Here he was getting to taste the freshly made taffy.
He seemed to enjoy ridding on the luggage vallet.
He sure did get attached to Papa. They said that every night they would go back to the hotel and Lane and Papa would go down to the lobby to get coffee. (yes it was decaf)
Here is when he got to play goofy golf. This was right down his alley. Nana and Papa said that he had a blast. You can see as you look down a couple of pictures that he was very upset to leave. My poor little man:(

Nana and Lane would sometimes hang out in the Hotel when Papa was out working.
Thanks Nana and Papa!!!!

A Weekend in the Country

We went to my friends Melanie's (Paige) house on Wednesday and came home Friday. We had a really good time. The kids played hard. They jumped on the trampoline and road the four wheeler. They have a really big yard in the country, it was real peaceful. We stayed up late playing darts and Foosball. We had a great time!!! Thanks Melanie and Daniel for letting us come!!

Gattie Town

We went to Gattie Town today and the kids had the best time. We were not thinking about it being Saturday, lunch time, and raining....so it was so crowded. It took alot of work keeping up with everyone. It ended up being an all day event.

We had Mary-Beth's 5th b-day saturday. It was a Hannah Montana party. The kids hada a great time. They got to walk the red carpet and eat cake. It was so funny to see all of the different outfits that each kid had on. Two of the adults even joined in on dressing up. (will- as Billy Ray Cyrus with the mullet and Shaun as George Jones)
