I am a bad blogger......

Where does the time go, I don't know, but it's gone! Time is flying by so quickly it is hard to believe that Wyatt is almost done with 2nd grade and will be a big 3rd grader soon (I'm already dreading the EOG's). Warren, is well Warren. He is enjoying his time at preschool and will be moving up to the 3 year old class in the fall. Summer is almost here and we are getting very excited about enjoying some boating, beach, and Cedar Island time. We are planning our annual vacation to Busch Gardens for July and I think I may be more excited than the boys. We are getting to stay a whole week this year and I can't wait to get away. We have been very busy with school, baseball and LIFE. Here are some pics of the things that have kept us too busy to blog this spring.

February was a whirlwind...

We have survived February and all of the birthdays. Our boys have grown so much over the past year, it is so hard to believe that they are 8 and 3.




I had my birtday on February 6th. I also can't believe I am 32. I remember clearly when I thought that was old. However, I no longer feel that way. The boys keep me young, at least young at heart.





Warren had his birthday on February 8th with a Thomas Party. We had a lot of fun with friends. We had hot dogs, cake and ice cream.





Two weeks later on Feb. 21st Wyatt celebrated his 8th birthday at the Eastern Athletic Club pool. He had a blast splishing and splashing with all of his friends and family. We had a really cool Hot Wheels "cupcake" cake. We have decided with all of these birthdays in one month that Wal-Mart bakery is our hero. They really do make great cakes, not only do they taste good, but they are really cute too.


Glad to see March come in no matter if it is like a LION or a LAMB....at least it is here! We are so ready for summer and warm weather. We can't wait for boating, beach and vacation.

A Friendship Prayer

Dear Lord, Thank you for the love you've placed in my life through the friends you've given me. They bring me warmth when the days are cold, music when I'm overwhelmed by silence, joy when sadness dawns above and below me. May I be a loving friend to each one of them as well. Fill me anew with your love that I may pass it along. Amen. (Friendship is a blessing, A Hallmark Book)

I can't believe he's almost 3!

Seems like yesterday that I was 9 months pregnant with my little man. At that time we did not know if he was a boy or girl. Now he is a walking, talking, all boy toddler! Where does the time go. His "Thomas Party" is this weekend and it is so cute to see him get so excited about it.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Boy did we have a great Christmas this year. We have eat enough to last all next year. We have enjoyed spending time with our families and friends. We are exhausted though. Since Thanksgiving we have had something every weekend and things in between.
1st weekend of December--> Myrtle Beach Trip
2nd weekend of December--> Greenville Shopping Trip
3rd weekend of December--> Christmas Pary at our house
4th weekend of December--> Christmas Eve and Christmas Day

We have enjoyed every minute of and are looking forward to 2010 with our wonderful family. The boys are growing so fast and will soon have their birthdays. Just can't figure out where the time goes. Hope everyone else had a Merry Christmas. We are praying for everyone to have a blessed and prosperous New Year!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

We have almost all of our Christmas decorations up, just a few more to go. We have bought a few presents and plan to buy more in Myrtle Beach this weekend and then Greenville next weekend. I can't hardly wait. The boys are making their wishes and plan to write their letters to Santa this week. Wyatt is wishing for a Wii (thanks to his Sissy...thanks Danielle) and Warren is wishing for a "choo--choo" (any train will do he is currently obsessed with them. I just love the looks on their little faces Christmas morning...it is truly priceless.




We have so much to be thankful for this year.
1) God is so gracious to us in numerous ways!
2) We are all healthy and happy!
3) We both still have our jobs!
4) Our parents are still with us!
5) Baby Avery and Baby Marlee joined our family!
6) We have all we need and much more!
7) and many....many more!
Praise be to God because without him none of this would be possible. Hope and happiness are only possible through him. Wishing all of you a very safe and happy Christmas Season.

This was Warren when he fell asleep playing in the boat while we were cleaning out the garage and getting Christmas decorations out of the attic! The sandals and socks were only because he had run through so many mud puddles we had run out of shoes. It was too cold for just the sandals! He's gonna hate me for this one day!

Have a blessed Veterans Day from...Our little Cub Scout

Todd and Wyatt were in the Veterans Day Parade yesterday in Morehead. They had a good time. Warren and I watched the parade from the side lines and had a good time also. We got a lot of candy (like we neeeded that with all of the Halloween candy we have left). Wyatt was so handsome in his uniform...he loves the Scouts. He got a chance to salute some of the service men and women who were on stage and they saluted back. Todd said Wyatt was so proud..he was just beaming! May God Bless all of those who have fought for our freedoms and those who continue to fight. Thank a verteran or current service person today! Always remember our Freedom is not FREE!

Happy Halloween 2009

We had a blast last night Trick or Treating.

Wyatt's suprise......

Wyatt had such a good week at school. We were so proud of him for trying so hard. He got a "Good" note sent home everyday.....last week. We decided to suprise him by taking him to one of his favorite spots...MacDaddy's. We all went bowling and played in the arcade. Spent a lot of money, but it was worth it to see them have such a good time. Seeing Warren in those little bowling shoes was worth it all.
