Easter 2011

Well we had a great First Easter with Grace. She is growing up right before our eyes in record speed. By the way, she is potty training and doing fabulous! I just can't believe the changes and growth in her in 8 months...well I will post a bunch of photos, so sit back and enjoy.


waiting on her eggs to dye


Logan ahd his friend Issaic

Grace and her friend Zoie...love this picture


Grace's first egg hunt, took her no time to catch on to this concept!


Look at that eye! Gotta laugh. She followed the Easter Bunny all around, would high five him and wanted to be where he was, but did NOT want to sit on his lap or stand by him...can you tell, I am getting the evil eye!

Wow - Side By Side


I just remembered when I was looking at Grace's photo on the carousel, that I had one of her that they took in China on the carousel. OMG; Look at the change in our precious daughter. I still laugh at the picture taken in China. She has a head dress on and the caption they had with it was "warrior princess". I know this was a prophetic word spoken over our daughter and she in fact is a warrior princess!




A Few More Photos From Carowinds

Striking a pose while she waits for Logan to get off the ride
Logan being a trooper and riding the carousel
Grace loves the Carousel and tells me not to hold on to her or the horse...really!

Grace's First Trip to Carowinds

Our first trip to Carowinds with Grace and she LOVED IT! Enjoy some photos. I think the season passes this year were a great investment.Riding the planes all by herself! Giving the princess wave each time she flies by.
Oops sorry Teddy can't see you. (couple friends of the boys with us) but look at that precious face on Grace with Jonathon!
And the boats....
Driving the cars, and yes she danced to the music as she drove!
Grace not quit big enough but Logan and his friend Christian enjoyed this ride

What a Weekend

I must say that I have a wonderful husband. He supports me in the much needed time I require occassionally to get away with the Lord and the girls that walk along side me in this journey of life. Oh how God showed up in this place. We walked away with an excitement for what lies in the days ahead and an overwhelming love in our heart for our maker!




What a Weekend

We had a party on opening night at the Kannapolis Intimidators Baseball game and then he played a day full of tournament ball on his bday and had some incredible hits, some great plays and topped the day off with 1st place championship trophy and cheesecake! Not bad! Enjoy some photos

Well It Has Been A While...

Well I know it has been a while, life has been busy with the usual stuff, work, school, and kids activities. Baseball season is upon us which is all consuming of our weekends and Grace is a trooper cheering on her brothers from the sidelines. She would rather be outside then anymore so it works out well. Christian even took a trip with the 8th grade to Washington, DC where he had a blast! It was 2 nights and 3 days and he loved his short stint of independence from his parents. Third quarter at school has ended and we are down to 3 projects left and are on the downstretch of the 4th and final quarter of the school year. Will be Christian's final quarter in middle school, as he moves on to high school in the fall. So hard for me to imagine I will have 2 in high school. Where did the years go? Logan and I took a trip to Raleigh yesterday with the 4th grades at his school and thoroughly enjoyed ourself. The pictures to facebook are a must see with our stops at the Legislative Building, The Museum of Natural History, the Capital and the Ride Home crashed on the bus. Enjoy a few more below.
