Birthday Celebration with Special Friends

How much better does it get than pink ice-cream cake, sweet sweet fun friends, the zoo, a huge stuffed animal horse, a new pink dress and getting wet when you are super hot?!!!!

Abbey you are so precious. You are a delight, a joy, you bring so much laughter to our lives! I love you and can hardly believe you are 4. God has given me and daddy such a special gift in you!! I love you

Happy Birthday to me...Happy Birthday to me.....

So far another wonderful morning with my two cuties! Got some sweet e-mails right off the bat....LOVE that! Awakened again with grins, got a sewing machine.. which I am super jazzed about, got a PRECIOUS video from PRECIOUS friends in Michigan.... thanks Lauren and Justin (and everyone else involved in singing to me) for taking the time to make that for me ...I LOVE IT! My favorite by far is Mia losing her second top tooth to a strawberry. We are still giggling!

Why My Mother's Day was Happy...

I was awakened by two precious girls and one sweet husband! I opened the most thoughtful and beautifully wrapped present from two very talented artists! I read two very sweet yet funny cards...full of music humor! I ate a delicious quiche and chocolate chunk muffin from our favorite little place...Rao's Bakery! Ahhh and at last my favorite of the day I got to see these smiles before taking a swim!

Last night

Mia's last night in our home was a memory maker for her and us! She finally lost her top tooth which may not be a big deal to some...but for Mia it was a long time coming and I mean a long time! It took 45 minutes to pull it but we definitely decided it is better to pull the band-aid quickly instead of slowly! (After Daddy's great visual)

Cousins

Need I say more on how much fun they had together all weekend! Trying to squeeze in as much time as possible...if I could only remember all of their quotes!!!!

Sweet Beautiful Mommies

Friday was so fun, thank you ladies for the celebration of friendship and getting to see our children enjoy life! Love you guys!

Sweet Legacy

Did I ever tell you that you are a man of commitment, integrity, intelligence, loyalty, honor, steadfastness and love? Did I ever tell you how honored I am to say that you have been married for 68 years to the same woman? Did I ever tell you that I count my little girls ribs until they giggle because of you? Did I ever tell you thank you for praying everyday for all of your grandchildren and great-grandchildren? Did I ever tell you that no one makes candy like you? Did I ever tell you I love the way you smile when you see my girls? Did I ever tell you, you left a beautiful legacy for my family because of your faithfulness in Christ?
I did tell you... I love you
