It was the perfect spring day! The kids and I played out in the yard most of the day! Looking forward to when the weather is like this on a regular basis.

Happy Birthday Mason Patrick!!!

My baby boy is 5 today!!! I cannot believe it!!!!! What a wonderful 5yrs it has been!!

say what?

Alexis came in tonight after shopping for prom dresses and showed me a picture of her in a very pretty dress on her phone. The dress did look really nice on her and the color was really pretty......then I asked "THE QUESTION"......how much? I nearly fell off my chair when she said $380!! HUH? I didnt spend that on my wedding dress.....and she wants to buy a gown that she will wear for ONE night, for that amount of money? Lordy! Needless to say, I think we will spend spring break searching for a different dress.

My girls..

 

Snapped this picture at the birthday party lastnight.....thought it was funny!

Happy Birthday Eli!

 

Today my nephew turns 1! He is such a joy!!!! Can't wait for the party tonight!

what a difference a few days can make....

 

 

It is only 5 days since our snowstorm that left 6inches of snow on the ground. Today it is in the high 70's..we took advantage of the day and spent the morning at a local park. All traces of snow have disappeared!

dreamboat!

 

My boy is so darn handsome :) Today he had cap and gown pictures at preschool (really, they have a real cap and gown...tassel and all!) This house is definetly getting ready for the graduations in May! This is Mason before heading off to school....he wanted his hair "spikey" LOL

what?

 

 

a few days ago it was 70 degrees, kids running around in short sleeve shirts and enjoying the sunshine! Today we woke up to over 4 inches of snow!!!

favorite picture of the day!

 

Teagan found a leaf on the ground and was determined to put it where it belongs; back up on the tree!!!

 
My very handsome boy!

Got a new camera!

I upgraded to a Nikon D80! Loving it so far! ( I just wish my skill level was up to par) I am hoping to get a few new lenses for it in the near future....here are some pics I took with it.

 

The weekend was sunny, but still cold. Kids are really starting to get spring fever! Everyone is tired of being cooped up inside. We played outside for a little while on Saturday!

a trip down memory lane........

I have been transferring old VHS tapes to DVD all weekend.....oh, the memories of my sweet little baby....the one who happens to be turning 18 this week.



and here is Mason at the same age with his version of the abc's:

2009

 

Sorry,I have slacked on posting already for the new year! We have been pretty busy already, but very excited to see what is in store for us this year. 2009 promises to bring lots of changes for our family. Alexis turns 18 at the end of the month, then we have graduation in May. And although we are still trying to figure out college plans, it looks as if she will be going away in the fall, while at the same time Mason will head off to full day kindergarten. Oh just thinking about it makes me sad!

We have been busy this weekend visiting with my brother, who is home on leave from Iraq. Yesterday, we had family pictures taken then off to a party to celebrate my brother.


Wishing the best for everyone in 2009!!!
