Happy Anniversary!

This past Saturday was our 5 yr wedding anniversary! 5 yrs already! We had the weekend without kids so that we could just 'be'. It was so nice, and we really enjoyed each others company! We don't get too many opportunties to spend time as just 'us'. I was reminded of all the reasons I married Mike to start with, and I'm looking forward to many more years together!


We set the timer on the camera for this one, not too bad!

Used the timer on this one also. Drew was asleep, so we'll have to get one of the whole family sometime when he's awake and happy!

Mike just repainted all of the trim on our house, along with the garage door. Jordyn HAD to help, she actually did a great job until she accidentally painted Mommys khaki work pants! Any ideas on how to get exterior latex paint out of clothes!?!?

Stay back, professional at work!!!

I had to throw a couple random pics of Drew in!!

Yum! Carrots!! And he even learned how to spit them at Mommy!!

Happy 3rd Birthday Jordyn!!

Jordyns birthday party was this past weekend. What a beautiful day for a beautiful little girl!! The weather was gorgeous, and the company was great. We had tons of food, tons of fun, and , you guessed it, tons of presents! We got some pretty good pictures of all 4 kids (Jordyn, Drew, Carter, and Cason) and Grandma was able to get some awesome pictures of Drew! Enjoy!

Jordyn behind her heaping pile of presents...what a lucky girl!!!

Keeping digging, there's more!

My Little Pony! She really was excited, despite the expression on her face!!

This is the birthday cake I made for J. I'm quite proud of it! :)

Drew, Cason, Jordyn, Carter....not a bad picture considering the oldest is 3 1/2!!

Jordyn, Drew, Cason, Carter....could they be any cuter?!

I love this!! Look close, Carter is smiling as he's pouring the water over his head!!

God is Great, God is Good, Let us thank Him, for our food!!

I've got to credit my mom with this picture, and the one above it also. I think this is one of the sweetest pictures EVER!

As you can see, we are incredibly Blessed! Our kids are loved by so many, we are so fortunate! Thanks again to all who came and shared Jordyns day with us!! It was definately a birthday party to remember, tantrums and all!

Growing Up!

Our kids are growing up right before our eyes!! Jordyn, our little princess, turns 3 on Friday! She's becoming quite the little lady and amazes us constantly!! It is so much fun just to hang out and talk to her...she's quite the little storyteller!

Andrew is 5 months old today already! He's rolling over, sitting up as long as he can lean on his hands, and babbling like crazy! He watches everyone and everything, just taking it all in. He loves Baby Einstein movies...I mean LOVES them! He laughs and talks to the movies...too precious! I have mixed feelings about putting him in front of the tv, but I figure Baby Einstein can't hurt, right?!



Well, he's in the hamper, should he go on the gentle cycle?

3 Musketeers!

2 Peas in a Pod!

Drew in one of his favorite places - his swing!

Hi Everybody!

It's close-up, but I love this picture!



Jordyn played in the leaves for the first time ever!

Daddy was showing J the soybeans in the field behind our house...she's holding one up, but you can't see the bean!

Saturday is Jordyns birthday party, so there will be plenty of pictures posted soon!
