Fun Day At the Zoo!!!

We had such a fun time at the zoo with all of our friends!! The weather was great, the kids were good and fun, the animals were out to play and the adult company I must say was also pretty awesome:)) Good times!!:)


I never got a picture of Rileigh's beautiful face...she and Jack were completely in awe of all of the animals!!


Emma was so excited to see her best friend...We LOVE Mary Ella and Jessica!! They were soooo good in their strollers...wonder how much longer that will last??:)







Cullen wasn't sure to think of Emma and Mary Ella's squeaky shoes...they were pretty loud!!

Big Love...:)











Jack's precious Valentine's Party at school!! Yep, he's eating a cake sucker...We are sooooo thankful for insulin:))


Emma thought she was a part of the party too!!:)

The Three Musketeers:)


Just have to say how impressed I am with Jack's preschool!! He is 3 and reading actual words, can write lots of letters, knows all of your basics like colors, numbers, days of week, weather words, etc...But, one of the most precious things I love the most, other than it's small, gentle, friendly atmosphere, is that they do LOTS of art!!! This is the teacher part in me...well, at least the art infused teacher part;) Not only is he learning sooooo much, but I know he's having a ball:))) These are just a few of my favs...Jack's portfolio:))

He cut these hearts himself:))



They did a hibernation unit and he can tell you what hibernation means and which animals hibernate...This is his bear in a cave:)


Of course, our fav is "Where the Wild Things Are"...Awwwwww!!!!

Best Friends

My lifelong best friend, Sutton, had sweet, baby Edwin in October, and this past weekend we were finally able to get all of the kids together for the first time!! We had so much fun!! We played kick ball, the kids made Valentines and had cupcakes and of course, we just hung out and visited!! Having a best friend like Sutton means that our kids will also be best friends by default...actually with any Sory:)) There's nothing like having a true best friend that you love dearly and I've always been so blessed to have Sutton and her family in my life... they ALL truly are my second family!!!






Emma was too busy eating goldfish to play with baby Sutton...Sutton's goldfish at that!!:)

Belzoni Snow

After I realized that Belzoni was suppose to be getting up to 5 inches of snow on Wednesday, we quickly packed it up and got up there!! We got there just in time to put on our snow clothes and head outside!! What a great time we all had!!!

Happy Days...

Jack had his first "real" playdate this week...his best friend Mason came over to play!! Mason actually rode home from school with us and his mom came to pick him up later that day...don't know that I've seen Jack so excited!!!!:) Amazing that he is old enough to already have friends over!! Reminds me so much of me and my best friend, Sutton:))








Notice anything different, besides how much sweet, baby girl has grown...her bed!!! Emma decided a few weeks ago to jump, crawl or fall (not really sure which) out of her beautiful, white, perfect little bed that I searched high and low for before she was born..at only 17 months of age!!! So, we had to put up Jack's old bed, which is also beautiful but definitely does not go with my all white and pink decor, only because his bed lowers more than hers did!! She is definitely our happy, little spitfire:))

"Old" bed...


She was 9 months in these picures...time is just flying by!!!


"New" bed!!
