Picnic at the Park


 Blaine is so happy that I am taking his picture!!
 I can't ever get a good picture of Jack!



Easter Day


We went to church at Bellevue on Easter Day. Afterwards we went to Gigi and Papa Hop's for lunch. Meem and Pap came too.

Decorating Easter Eggs!

 Sadie decorating Easter eggs. I tried some thing new this year. I used Koolaid instead of Easter Egg Dye. It smelled good and did a a good job dying the eggs. I wish I would have had more colors!
 Kenzie Jane
 I made him take this picture. He had no desire to decorate Easter Eggs!
 Kenzie researched bible verses on the Resurrection of Jesus. She wanted to right bible verses on the eggs.
 Sadie Emerson helping me make caramel brownies for Easter day!

Makenzie's 10th birthday

I set up an area where the girls cold decorate aprons. This was the first thing they did when they got to the party.
Alyssa, Gracie, Makenzie, Anna Catherine, and Emma. Good Girls!
We ordered plain cakes from Kroger for the girls to decorate. I got different types of gels from Hobby Lobby.

Emma and Anna Catherinee

The girls!

Why all girls want to do a crazy picture is beyond me!
Garner and Sadie wanted to decorate something too! They got old white t-shirts.
I made homemade fondant out of marshmallows, confectioner's sugar, and food coloring. Each girl got their own fondant to roll out and use on their cakes.























We celebrated Kenzie's 10th birthday party. It was a Cake Boss party. We decorated aprons, decorated cakes, and ate pizza and cake. Good times!

Spring Break - 2013!!

We had a great Spring Break! Kenzie went to St. Croix to spend the week with her Aunt Christi. She celebrated her tenth birthday and was able to become Scuba Certified. She dove up to 30 feet and saw sea turtles, many different fish, and an octopus. I am so excited for her. She truly is fearless when it comes to trying new things and I think she will enjoy diving in the future.











While Kenzie was in the Caribbean, Jack and Sadie went to Grandmama and Grandaddy's house where I am sure they were spoiled! We also went to see Papa Hop's baseball team play and we played at the park. We had good times!

Blaine and I were able to celebrate our 12th anniversary together at Ruth's Chris Steak House! Yummy! We also saw a couple of movies together and just did things we have not been able to do in a while.

I am blessed! Enjoy the pictures!!
