Picture Time

Back in April we had Aleigha's pictures done.

I absolutely love them and can't wait to get them

printed.

Tyler's Graduation

Tuesday night Tyler graduated Kindergarten!

Here are some of his family waiting...

There comes that big boy

Class of 2011

They all had little rhyme's to stand up and say and

it was just to sweet & he did so good!

There he comes with that diploma,

officially a 1st grader!



With his Daddy (my brother)

The Graduate!

Love my nephew to pieces!

Mamaw & Papaw

Granny

And my absolute pic of the evening, I hope they

stay like this forever. The love between these sweet

cousins makes my heart happy!

Mother's Day

Mother's Day didn't go as expected around here

but it was still perfect. Aleigha has pneumonia

so we knew that we would be staying in instead of

going with my Mom to see my Granny. My parents

did come by for a few minutes on their way so atleast

I got to see her but it's not the same as spending the day

with her but I did get to spend the day with that special

little girl that calls me Mommy.

This is my Mom & Aleigha last year

on Mother's Day!

I've been saying for a while that I wanted Hydrangea's

and Henry & Aleigha got me a plant and I absolutely

love it. I can't wait to plant it. They also got me

Black Heels to Tractor Wheels by The Pioneer Woman

and I was excited about thas as well. I can't wait

to start reading it.

So we had a low key day of staying home

in pajamas all day so there aren't many pictures

to share. We ordered Mexican food for dinner

and just laid around being lazy!

I hope all of you wonderful ladies had

 a great Mother's Day!

Easter Festivities

I know I am super late on posting this stuff but 

better late than never. Before Easter we went

to an egg hunt with friends at the church and

the kids had so much fun. They had lots of different

activities for the kids to do before the hunt began.

Here is Aleigha working on her sticker sheet above

and below is a foam picture frame we made and

she was so proud of it.

The Easter bunny was there also but let's just say

that she was less than interested in him.

On to the egg hunt. They had so much fun finding eggs

for all about 3 minutes. They hid the eggs right

on the playground so Aleigha & Grisham were

all about playing and less about egg hunting but

they had fun & that's all that matters.



After that we went to lunch at Chik-fil-a and there

was a balloon guy there making all the kids different

things.

It was alot of fun & I'm so glad Kelly & Grisham invited

us to go with them. Later that day they came over

to my mom & dads and we hid eggs for the kids again

and they were able to concentrate on egg hunting a litle more

instead of playing :)

Happy Easter

Aleigha's Sweet Shoppe

For Aleigha's birthday we decided to go with

a "Sweet Shoppe" theme since she loves

anything & everything sweet. I'm so glad we

did because she loved it! I know this post is really

late but my life has been taken over by clinicals and

it seems like I have no time for anything.

Better late than never right :)

Here we are before the party.

Birthday girl with Mamaw & Papaw

Gumball machine made with a flower pot & fish bowl

This little bucket held bags for the candy that said

"Thank you for making my birthday so sweet"

and it also had toothbrushes in it

We made 2 of the dum-dum topiary trees. They

turned out so cute!

Marshmellow pops

We did cupcakes instead of a cake.

I took a picture of the entire Sweet Shoppe table

with the banner & all but there were about 5 of my best

pictures that messed up so this is one half of the table

and heres the other half

The food table: sandwiches cut out like flowers, chocolate

chip cookie dough dip with graham crackers & animal cookies,

& fruit kabobs. We also wrapped the utensils and napkins

with candy bracelets but that pic was messed up also but you can

see them in the bottom right of this pic

Sign that hung on the front door

Lollipops lined the side walk and the entire back patio

Candy hung from the tree and patio

More lollipops

Birthday girl with her Sweet Shoppe

(this pic was taken after most everybody had left and things were moved around)

I'll have another post with the rest of her party!

There were so many pics that I had to break it up.

It turned out perfect and we had 23 kids show up.

I was amazed but our little princess had the best time!
