A quote by Audrey Hepburn

For attractive lips, speak words of kinds, for lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For poise, walk with the knowledge that you will never walk alone. People more than things have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed and redeemed. Never throw anyone away.

Best Wishes Kyle

Kim, Heather and I took Kyle out for a good bye dinner last week. We went to Rosebud's. Kyle and her family are relocating to Texas. Although I haven't been friends with her for long, I really did enjoy her company and will be sad to see her go! Best of luck Kyle!!!

This is how we ROLL

A very serious looking Carter and his wobbly passanger the Goose. Morning, noon and night Carter wants to drive his tractor. Now Darrell put it at the maximum speed so watch out. I have to do a jog beside the tractor to keep up with them!~

Random Carter pictures

Our little handsome boy all dressed up with all the buttons, buttoned. He would not have it any other way.

Just a random shot, but I love the expression on his face. Priceless!

Cowboy Carter off to school with his sheriff badge on and all! Today was dress up like a cowboy or farmer day at school. So Mommy got creative and put this Woody look a like outfit together.
He loved it!

Random Gavin pictures

Our Gavin John LOVES playing in the sand. We have a nice park in our subdivision that has a sandbox so it is great! Mommy's rule is, play in the sand all you want, but if there is sand play that day, then it is bathtime that night for sure!

Such a random shot. I think Carter actually took this, but I love it. It just really shows his true happy expression and those beautiful eyelashes

Oh boy or Oh SUGAR shall I say? Looks like mommy needs to make a dentist check up visit soon. Gavin enjoying a very sugary Easter treat.

Date Night

Me and my handsome big boy at the movies. We went out on a date last month. Noonie & Papa were on Gavin duty. We went to for dinner at Applebee's and then to see the movie RIO in 3D. Daddy came along too. It was nice to give Carter some one on one attention. He just soaked it up. At the end of the night my date even gave me a kiss and told me he loved me. We plan on doing this again more often.

Gavin and Mommy

Jamie from FITL invited me to have a booth at their Brunch & Boogie at Lincoln Hall. We had over 120 families come to the event. It was a great marketing event for me and a learning experience.
