1st Grade!

We got school pictures in today and I was just blown away at how old Gracie looks!  She was the cutest baby but has certainly grown to be a beautiful little girl.  I'm afraid I'm going to blink and she is going to be a lovely young lady before I know it.

She is doing great and still loving school!  She loves reading and has her days when she loves math as well. Very much into fashion and music these days and not so much the baby dolls anymore.  Definitely still Daddy's little sidekick!  She is all about softball and basketball.  She is a huge Taylor Swift fan and despite Daddy's dislike a big Justin Bieber fan as well!  Of course as you can see she is still all about her hair bows and seems to love all things that sparkle! 

Day 6 of being thankful!

 I am not just thankful for the relationship I have with my Daddy, but the relationship he has with my children.  He has been there for me on my best and worst days and taught me many lessons along the way.  I watched him fight back the tears the day he walked me down the isle and watched him hide his tears the day I pulled out of the drive way to start a new life 1000 miles away.  Leaving he and Mom that day was the hardest thing I ever did, but when I returned with a beautiful little grand-daughter to put in his arms had to be the best!  Watching him take Gracie to the park to feed the ducks just as he did when I was little and play peek-a-boo with Weston just melts my heart!

I wouldn't trade this man for anything!  

Day 5 of Thankfulness

   

My Mother is the most wonderful person I have ever known.  I am thankful each and everyday for her and everything she has taught me.  As strange as it may sound she is still teaching me lessons everyday.  I sometimes catch myself quoting her or thinking to myself "wow I sound just like my Mom".  I learned how to be a "Mommy" from her and sure hope I am making her proud.  You don't meet to many people in your life that are genuinely beautiful inside and out and I was lucky enough to have one as a Mother.  That has to be one of the greatest blessings of all!

Day 4 of Thankfulness

 

I am so very thankful for my sweet son, Weston Wyatt.  You will forever be Mommy's boy (no matter what Daddy says or does).  All of our lives have changed so much since your arrival.  To have, hold and love a son has been such a blessing.  I know some day you will grow to be a strong man and hope your Daddy and I do our job well to lead you on that journey.  I expect you will make that a VERY interesting journey for Mommy, Daddy and your sisters! 

I hope you always know you were created from so much love are treasured dearly!

 

Oh my sweet Weston Wyatt!  Your Daddy may have named you after a gun slinging cowboy, but you are Mommy's sweet little love bug! 

Ashlynn turns 6!!!

 Can't hardly believe how fast all the kids are growing!  We joined Miss Ashlynn for a very special 6th Birthday Party!  It was loads of bouncing fun at the Fun Factory! 

 Happy Birthday Sweet Girl!

Day 3 of Thankfulness!

My Sweet Abigail Grace I am thankful each and every day for you!

Your Daddy and I had no idea what we were doing when you were born and we hoped and prayed we would just get it right!  We sure got it right, because we got sweet little you!  You have been my "Saving Grace" at times and sure made our lives so incredible.  You are so smart and beautiful!  It amazes me every day as you grow up to see this kind, independent and wonderful little person you have become.  I sneak in your room at night sometimes just to look at you and give you a little kiss and I have since you were a baby.  You just amaze me, my Amazing Grace!

We are the Raider Girls!

 Well the playoff game didn't exactly go as planned for the Raiders this year.  Unfortunately they fell one game shy of making it to the Super Bowl, but they sure had an amazing season.  Not to mention they had they cutest cheerleaders cheering them on.  The girls were able to preform the half time dance they had been working so very hard on!  It was adorable!  A BIG thanks to the Cabot High School Dance team for teaching the girls the dance!  An even BIGGER thanks to Coach Melanie for doing such an awesome job with the girls this season!
