The Best Husband in the World!





Public service announcement:
Okay I must say that I have gotten terrible about updating the blog lately!!  What you hadn't noticed?  Well who could blame you for giving up on me!!! How is it I could keep it up to date with a new born but not now?  Oh well we are working on changing a few things around here!
Now your regularly (haa haa) scheduled blog post......

Do you see this guy?
He is absolutely the best in the world!!!  There are many reasons but  today I am still smiling at the fact that he planned this.....

A Surprise Birthday Party!!!
He had been working on it for months.  I was in total shock!  
I had no idea--guess that's where the "SURPRISE" in a surprise party comes from.  

I'm sure that several people I talked to on the day before were cracking up when they got off the phone with me!  I spent the entire day before cleaning--in a cleaning mood like I have not been in a long time!! The down side was that I hurt my neck--as in on Friday I could not even move it!!!  This explains why in the picture, I look so stiff and everyone else is so relaxed looking!  My brother and sister in law also came but the camera flash bothers them so they opted out of the picture.

In addition to that night, we had house guest for the rest of the weekend.  You know what that means?  The party lasted 2 more days!  

Thanks everyone for making it a great day!!!
I love you all!!!

Baby It's COLD Outside....

But it's
SNOW
much fun!!!!!!!!

See.....











We made snow cream and built a fire in the fire pit in the drive way.
Drew came out for a few minutes and Shelby went to play with friends but was back pretty quick.
It's not as much fun if you don't have snow gear and are wet and cold....plus I think one of our is getting sick--no fun ;-(
Enjoy the snow if you have it and be safe!!!

Happy Birthday CASEY!!!!!!!!

Oh my how time flies when you are having fun!!
I can hardly believe that you are 5 today.
I will never forget the days leading up to your birth and the peace Mommy felt the night you were born.
So very many people we praying for us that night and God gave Mommy a perfect peace.

Do you see how BIG Daddy's hand is and how SMALL you are?  Shelby had dolls that were bigger than you--as a matter of fact, you wore clothes that I had bought for Shelby's dolls!!
You are growing up so very fast.
I would love to freeze time.
You have such a love for God already--keep it up sweetie--keep "chasing" Him!
You are such a social little girl--always wanting to play with friends like Ella Rose.
I think you would live with Mimi and Kokopat for weeks at a time if we would let you.
You are so smart--especially at math!!!
You have a very determined spirit--you decided to give up sucking your thumb this year and you did it!!!  No looking back!!!  My how I miss that sweet thumb and baby but I am so very proud of you!!



You love dance and you love to sing.
You easily eat about 3 things--noodles, rice and "mimi" chicken nuggets.
You have great hair--we'll call it hair with personality!!

Welcome to 5 baby girl!!  We love you!!!
