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!

I want to brag a little on my son, Tyler. Tyler is such an awesome kid(I know most parents think that about their children), but there is something really special about Tyler. This is not to say that he is perfect, or never gets into trouble. He has qualities that I know the Lord will use in mighty way. He has such compassion for people. His spirit uplifts mine and those around him. I wish everyone could know him in the way we do. He is still shy at times, but he is turning into quite the young man. He has so much tenderness and love. He truly loves the Lord. I can't wait to see how the Lord will use him!! We are so blessed to have him be in our lives!

Need I say more?


Brotherly love


Emma loves to play with her big brother. I never knew how good Tyler would be as a big brother, but he is awesome! There is 7 years difference between them and I love it. He really is her protector! She is prissy and so girly, but her Tyler has taught her that she can hold her own. She loves to wrestle and she usually wins!

My New Lamps!!

Not that anyone cares, but I am so excited about my lamps that I feel I must share. I have been looking for buffet lamps and everything has just been too much! I went to Kirklands the other day with a friend and they had this set of lamps in the "as is" section. I asked the lady what was wrong and she said nothing, they had been returned. Anywho, she sold them to me for ...get this..$5 each. Isn't that awesome and they look so pretty. Brad couldn't have been prouder of me for finding a bargain :). I think they are a perfect addition to our home.
