Nacho average fiesta


My hair was slowly becoming one big ball of frizz with all the rainy weather.

Shanna with her mom and sister



The only picture I got with the bride and groom to be




This weekend, we had a shower for Shanna and Jason who are getting married in May. Friday night we went to Do Di Yo's and I LOVED IT! The atmosphere, food, drinks- everything was great! Saturday day we watched movies and took it easy since the weather was so yucky. Saturday night was the party and it was a blast. We had Mexican cater it with margaritas. YUMMY! Even though it was nasty weather, we all had a great time celebrating Shanna and Jason.

The difference.....

between Christian and Emory- CC is/was a daredevil, try anything type of girl. Emory- NOT SO MUCH!


Emory will not even go down this stair without help! But today I was determined that she was going to try it.
She thought otherwise and we had a 20 minute battle.

She would start to do it, then decide it was too dangerous!


Oh....she was so mad at me!!!!!!

On another note, I went into the smocking bird the other day to get somethings monogrammed and ran into some fabric that was calling my name! So I decided to sew some more!


I bought a new pattern with panties or shorts that have elastic ruffles on the bottom. ADORABLE ! Although, with Emory's chucky monkey legs I will have to add more elastic...hehehe!
Here is a glimpse into a few seconds of the show-down Emory and I were having to get her to go down that damn stair.....ultimately she won and I helped her. I'm a sucker!



Soccer fans

We're just hanging out drinking coke,
talking on the phone!

Papaw came to watch CC play! We were so excited that he got to see her in action.


We had a fun time!


This is my attempt to get a semi group pic....not happening

Emory met a friend!
My dad came in town on Thursday to visit then take the girls home with him while we gave a wedding shower on Saturday. Thursday night we had a blast at the soccer park with our friends and Papaw. The plan was to get up Friday morning and they would head out. Well, guess who woke up throwing up----------- CHRISTIAN!!!!!!!! I'm not sure if she was so excited to be going to Papaw and Gran's for the weekend (do you remember Christmas 2009).or what the issue was, but she did get over it after a little while and was fine the rest of the weekend. THank you Dad for coming all this way to drive them all the way back! You're the greatest and we love ya. Maybe next soccer game, we'll score a goal for ya!!!

The Juice Boxes~

Today for Earth Day, CC's class is celebrating by dressing up to be in a "Rock" 'n Roll Band. They came up with the name THE JUICE BOXES! I can't wait to hear all about it when Miss Rock Star gets home.
We also have soccer tonight and CC will have a fan to watch her- PAPAW !!! My dad is coming in town tonight, just in time to watch Christian in action. Then he is heading back to GA with the girls while Bryan and I throw a wedding shower for my oldest, greatest friend, Shanna!

Weekend Recaps







This princess was singing to the crowd and CC decided she needed to be up there with her!


(just wanted to stick this pic in here. CC went to the dentist on Tuesday. She was such a big girl! Big girl, Emory will be going along with CC in October for her first dentist appointment. )
This past weekend we headed to the Mt. Laurel's Spring Festival. We had such a fun time shopping, eating, shopping, jumping, etc...... This will definitely be a on our list of things to do each year.
one week and one day from today my baby turns ONE!

wearing our sunglasses while reading books,


and taking naps and waking up with 'bed head!"

Our Weekend

Friday night, I went to dinner with the mamas from our Mama & Me group. It was fun and I took some great pictures. BUT.............. I erased them from my camera....UGH! (I am so sorry girls!)
Saturday morning, we had Emory's one year pictures taken! CAN YOU BELIEVE that Emory will be one year old in 19 days?!!! Where has the time gone?!
Stephanie Fisher (her blog has a few more 'sneak peek' pictures) has taken Emory's pictures throughout her first year and I couldn't have been happier with ALL of the pictures she has taken. Saturday night, we had an impromptu supper club at our house. It was a great time, although we missed Maretta and the Joyners.
All babies born in 2009 were celebrated today at our church- close to 80 babies!!! We had a group picture taken, then we showed off our little ones to the congregation. (We tried to get CC to stay, but she wanted to go to her Sunday School class.)

Our friends from our Sunday School were there as well. Ginny's mom was nice enough to take pictures while we were up front.
We then had a luncheon with all the families. It was such a great morning.

Then we napped and spent the day outside.


This has been the best present EVER!

Sophia and Angela came over for a little while to play. Fun day outside!


While cleaning the kitchen, the broom fell. Emory crawled right over and began helping me.....
