Happy Valentine's Day!





Happy Birthday Daddy!


You never realize just how hard it is to be surrounded by women until it comes time to make a birthday cake..Daddy wanted red velvet cake, and well since mommy wanted to be creative, she tried to make the icing red also and it didn't work so well..SO it was PINK.. To combat this feminine look, I added chocolate sprinkles..pink and brown are the "in" colors these days anyways. Just to prove daddy's good sportsmanship he also agreed to wear a my little pony birthday hat as this was Savannah's request! WE love Daddy!

Enjoying a Day outside ATLAST!

After days of sickness that we all were a victim to, we were finally able to enjoy the break in weather temp and play outside. The girls were thrilled..Poor Brianna, we did this while she was taking a nap! Savannah the daredevil found amusement jumping over the ball and landing with no foam pit, mat, or soft landing pad..Such a tough gal!! The video shows her full enjoyment of her new discovered "talent!"







Our Sweet Girls...

FINALLY Brianna has enough hair to do something with! so Cute in Pigtails!!



Ad: 2 small females desperately seeking snowman...



The true love of winter time brings wishes of building a snowman..here in Campbell County we've not been so lucky..My children wanted to go outside anyway even though the snow was practically all gone.

ANGEL IN THE MAKING

Tara- I had one of those "motherly moments" that I have to share with the rest of the world! Savannah and I were at the breadstore last week and in the store was a young girl in a wheelchair. Most of the time when Savannah sees someone in a wheelchair, she stops, takes a moment to examine the individual, then points it out that "mommy he/she's in a chair like Gary T (my brother)..and then I have to tell her to say hello. This particular day was much different. When the mother pushed this young lady past us, Savannah put up her hand and said "HI!" with no hesitation. I teared up right there in the breadstore, leaned over, told Savannah thank you for not staring, and kissed her on the head. It's these times that you are thankful to be a mom, to have such a loving child, to know that yes you are raising your child right and to be righteous. Someone once told me at church that he didnt know me, didnt know Savannah, but that he knows one day she will be a great pillar in the church. I now truly believe she will be a great pillar for society with her angelic ways. I am grateful to God for allowing me to be a mother and experience these little moments that make all the bad days seem meaningless.
