Spring Program

Addie had her spring program and was so cute...  I, on the otherhand, had a moment when I realized that this is our last spring program at LUMP- I've been to one the past four years.  Bittersweet.:(



All things Richmond

Brendan and I absolutely love the city of Richmond.  We had some great years there, there's so much to do, it's Brendan's middle name, and well- our first born was conceived there.:)  While we were there, we made sure to get Sweet Cream Cheese pretzels from Wa-Wa... twice, and also visited Belle Isle.  We crossed the bridge, toured the whole island, and even visited the Civil War visitor's center. These are the kinds of days that I live for.:)






Dedication!

Brendan and I are so lucky to have such good friends in our life.  Brendan is still best friends with his college roommate... and our families are, well... family.  We all get along great- including the kids- and it's so sweet to see how close they are.  We traveled to Richmond for the weekend to see Jonathan and Eleanor's dedication at church and Brendan and I were so honored when we were asked to be their Godparents.  What a special weekend- for all of us!







When did she turn into a little girl?

Addie and I were enjoying a gorgeous morning on the deck having breakfast together- and tea/juice in "fancy cups"- which was totally her idea... I had let her pick out her outfit, and when I looked at her, I just completely stopped.  When did she grow up?  She seems so much older!  Thank goodness she still wants to be my baby girl... I'll take it as long as I can...  We have kindergarten registration in a week.:(


Sweetness


 Ahhh... I can tell Summer is approaching- The kids are playing outside nonstop- and we have to end every night with a shower or bath!  But I do think my favortie thing in the world is a freshly bathed baby- and eventhough she's still growing up- she's still  my baby.  She gets all her tangles out... and thinks she "looks like a boy" when her hair is all combed back.  Addie Tay- You are still my little darling- don't you worry.:)

Family Bowling!



Brad's girlfriend, Jenn, planned a surprise birthday party for Brad- and she's pretty daring because she invited our WHOLE family to go bowling! 

 We even had some new faces... Hello Dean Alex- is that a new girl making the SLOG!!! And Butt-Butt and J.D.- you guys are even coordinating- how sweet.... HA~!

 My sweet boy is just growing up way too fast!

Addie his it off great with Sienna!
A great time was had by all... eventhough I had a freakout moment when I couldn't find my kids!!!  It's all good- they were playing video games with Averey... should have know.:)

Date with Chris

Addie and I surprised Chris at school for lunch... he LOVED having his sister eat with him- and of course Addie fit right in and wasn't shy at all!!!  Chris was trying to talk trash at lunch- teasing his friend Wesley that likes the Green Bay Packers:

Chris~ Hey Wesley... Booooo P-A-C-K-E-R!

Wesley- S. How many times do I have to tell you there's an S at the end- HA!
