HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRAD!!!!



Brad turned 37 on March 25th!!!


We love you!!!

For those of you who don't know, Brad gets teased pretty harshly. He went on a men's trip last year with the men from church and there was a tinkerbell luggage tag on his suitcase(from our trip to disney), which fell into the wrong hands. For Christmas Brad got a tinkerbell brush, mirror and body soap set(which Emma loves) and for his birthday,well, you can see the cake decoration for yourself,which was given to him at a men's cookout!!

Our New Niece



I have been meaning to put up our special announcement, but haven't gotten around to it, so here goes. We are the proud aunt and uncle of a sweet little girl, Margaret Laine Piland. She is the daughter of Scott(my brother) and Aimee and the little sister of Jack. We are very proud of them and love them all very much.WELCOME MAGGIE!

Easter 2008


The kids looked so cute on Sunday. Tyler just looks like a little man and well, Emma,she's too cute for words. I felt like such a bad mom this year, we didn't hide eggs or get Easter baskets or anything. This year so far, has been a little wacky for me and I seem so much out of sorts this year. But, my children didn't miss a beat, Tyler even said, that's not what Easter is about anyway, mom. Can't help but be proud of him. Love my kids.

March 3rd, I turned 32. I can't believe it. It is so scary to see time fly by so fast. Tyler took this picture on my birthday, which by the way, was a great day!!!

Well, Brad and I have been married almost 11 years(in April) and we finally went off for the first time since children on an overnight stay. We went back to where we spent our honeymoon @ Forrest Hills Resort in Dahlonega. It was also our first time leaving Emma. The kids stayed with some dear friends of ours and of course, ,they did great. Brad and I really had a nice time. It is so nice to go off and not have to worry about your children. This is me posing with the wooden carved folks outside of the couples' dining area. It was fun hanging out together! I so much love my husband and appreciate him taking off of work to spend some much needed time together.

New P-jammies



Emma is so funny, she loves getting new things. She got these new pj's and you would have thought she got some big amazing toy. Everytime she gets dressed, she will go to everyone in the house and wait for them to compliment her. Tyler is such a sweet boy, he compliments us girls all of the time, I tease that he is being prepared for marriage!
