So thankful for family. There’s always something special about spending time with the ones you love. God has blessed me with a wonderful family. Happy birthday DAD! I love you!

Nana Judy and Papaw Sonny’s house

We went to Bryant Monday and left Thursday morning. The weather was perfect so we were outside most of the time. The kids loved playing in the dirt and taking walks throughout the neighborhood.

My sweet little boy loved the bunny that sat on the front porch. There were lots of fun Easter decorations to look at.

On Wed. we had a little party for Faith. It was princess themed. Nana Judy ordered her a PRINCESS CAKE! She loved every minute of it! She also hung a cut banner. ( I forgot to take a picture of it)

She is a pro at blowing out candles!

The BIG Run!

Lee ran in the Little Rock Marathon this past weekend. I am so proud of his accomplishment. Faith, mom, and I went to the race to cheer him on. At one point, Lee stopped and kissed Faith. It was so sweet. He did a great job and has quite the metal to show for it!!

THE FINISH LINE!!!!!!!

first stop of our trip

We went to Little Rock for 9 days this past week. It was good to be able to spend quality time with family. Our schedule was packed with events throughout the week. Our first stop was at Papa Dan’s and Kat Kat’s house. They live out on 40 acres so there is plenty of room to play. The kids loved being outside kicking up dirt and have a good ole time! Faith went on a four wheeler ride with daddy and we took a drive down to see the horses, cows, and goats that live nearby. Faith said “the cows talked to her, but the horses didn’t” She would MOOOO at the cows and they would MOOOO back. It was fun to watch her reaction.

Backyard fun!

Today is the first day of March and it feels like the first day of May! It is 79 degrees out and sunny! The kids can’t get enough of being outside. Since we now have a mini Disney World in the backyard we have plenty to do! Peyton has NO Fear! He runs out the back door and heads straight for the ladder. He has no problem climbing up it. It scares me to death because its a good 4-5 ft. off the ground. He goes down the slide like a PRO!

What mom?!? I got this one!

Nana Judy was up here last week and she came home one day from being out with Lee with a trampoline for Faith! Thank you Nana Judy for spoiling us with surprises! Lee started putting it together one night after dinner when it was almost dark. He had to put most of it together in the DARK by flashlight so his little Angel could jump on it that night. The things dads do for their kids! Wish I had gotten a picture!

Faith Loves the Monkey Bars. Last year she called them the “mickey bars”! She has since then corrected herself. She is a little monkey. Pics From 10_24_11 071 Pics From 10_24_11 073 Pics From 10_24_11 074 

I know I always say this but I can’t believe how fast these little ones are growing up! God is so GOOD!

One last BIG thing! Lee is running in his first Marathon this weekend in Little Rock. We are going to cheer him on! GO DADDY GO!
