Forgive Me

I know it has been way to long. I don't know what I will do now that my card reader is down. I can not upload any pictures as of now. I have been so bummed about this. Just a little recap of the past couple of weeks: Lane started soccer and is liking it (well some) and MB just went to Miami Florida with my parents and Gretta. They had a great time. This is the intercession week for the the district so MB is out of school. We went to the dentist yesterday and got the kids teeth cleaned. (I have some pics to post of that one day) and we went to the so with some friends. It was actually pretty hot out there. I also have pictures of this also. I will do my best to figure out how to get pictures posted. I really think the only solution is to buy a new laptop. (anyone have one they want to get rid of????????) Until next time, have a great week

Happy Valentine's Day

I had set out the kids valentines last night so that they would see it when they woke up and be surprised, but much to my surprise they surprised us. Mary-Beth got up at 7:00 and woke Lane up with her. She tip-toed to our bedroom and turned off our monitor so that we would not hear her (clever huh, I may should be worried?) Anyway, she must have had the thing all planned out in her mind. She made Will and me a peanut butter and jelly roll up each. Plated them and fixed both of us a drink. She set them at the table and set up a treasure hunt for us. (I guess this came from Holly and Tony on Wednesday night) They both came in our room at 8:00 and woke us up.

I love my kids so much and what a better way to spend the Love day than with two sweet little kids that truly do love us.

This is the kids valentine gifts from us.
The picture below is the nice breakfast that Mary-Beth and Lane made us. (Lane, I think really just watched)
Here is Will reading his book that the kids and I got made for him.

Here is Will's treasure at the end of his treasure hunt. I believe it will go very good with is beard :)

Here is my treasure. MB said that she picked out this bear because it has a heart on his hand. There is also a card that they made for us.

This is Lane after eating some of his blue cupcake dog!

A great weekend!

I don't have any pics of the weekend, but man you can't complain with this weather (Holly, sorry to give you such a crazy stroll, Friday afternoon). We started this weekend off with Rachelle, Jeffery, and Addison spending the night Friday and going to the play "The King and I". Cameron was in it and he did such a great job. Such the little actor! I woke up Saturday and after the Scotts left I was headed to the park downtown I was talking to my neighbor "Misti". She told me I was really missing out by not going to the "Kelly's Kids Warehouse Sale" So I headed down to Natchez. I got some great coordinating outfits for the kids. It was so much fun. Thanks Mom and Dad for helping out with some of the outfits. I am set for the next few holidays. I got back in town and met the in-laws for supper. After church Sunday, Will and I worked in the yard some while the kids played with Addie. (Landry, we will catch you next time) I hope everyone has a great week and a Happy Valentine's Day!!

I Am Not Worthy

Today, I went to get Mary-Beth from school and I got called into the Principal's office. (SCARY)

She told me that I got "Parent of the Year" for the school. I am happy but that is a tall order. I, by no means, am a parent of the year. I feel like there is many parents who have worked hard to make the schools opening great. Along with the title, I get to write a 2 page paper on how I feel I can and have contributed to the school and the class. I also have to have 3 references written about me. I will say that Alisa did not nominate me because she did not want to look bias. I am flattered but I do not feel worthy. I think that I do what any other parent would do for there child in school. It is still a parents responsibility to make sure their child strives in school and stay involved in every step. For all of you other moms I know you all do the same.

Bikes are so much FUN!!!

I have been taking the kids riding on there bikes around the neighborhood the past two weeks. I want to teach them how to ride in a neighborhood. When MB gets home everyday they jump on the bikes and off we go. I want them to learn well enough so that I can start riding with them. The hills are bit of a challenge. These pics are from yesterday MB was not feeling well so I did not get any pics of her because I was pushing her in a stroller. I had to take some of Lane with my phone because he is such the dare-devil. He has already taught himself how to hold his feet up while going down the hill. He also slams on his brakes so he can slide in the gravel. I know, it sounds real safe. They both have helmets and elbow and knee guards. It amazes me that they both make it from one side of the neighborhood to the other and back.

HAPPY 6TH B-DAY Mary-Beth!!!!

My sweet girl had her 6th birthday today. I think back to 6 years ago and how our life completely changed on this day. I was so excited. Here are some of the pictures from that day. I love you my sweet baby!

100th Day of School

Can you believe that it has already been 100 days that Mary-Beth has been in school. I sure can't. Here are a few pictures of her dressed for the occasion. I appliqued a shirt for her and We put 100 ponytails in her hair. I have to say she did very good sitting still while I put them in her hair. The assignment was for the kids to come to school wearing 100 of something. Her hair will never be the same:)

I had to throw this picture of Will and the kids jumping on the trampoline. Will would be thrilled to know that I am putting a picture of him playing "ring-a-round the roses. But I could not resist!
