Mother's Day Weekend

Hope everyone had a Happy Mother's Day. Saturday was Jordan's last soccer game of the season, and the only game they lost all season. Good season Hurricanes! :) Sunday the kids surpised me with flowers and cards. It was so fun watching them plant :).

Happy Easter 2011!

Happy Easter! The kids awoke bright and early to find their Easter goodies. Jordan was lucky enough to have a visit from the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy in the same night! That makes 5 teeth she has now lost in less than a year. They played with their Easter goodies then we headed to church. From there we went to lunch and egg hunting and Grammy and Pappy's and then for dinner and Granny and Grandad's! We are wiped out but had a ball :)

Visit to Illinois

We just got back from a 2 day visit in Illinois with Bernard's Aunt/Uncle and cousins. Our kids got to meet some of their cousins for the 1st time and had a ball. We went to the park, bowling, out to eat & played lots of WII! Jordan and cousin Brooklyn. Jordan was ready to bring her home with us!

February Update

Last week I took Jordan to see the Justin Bieber movie, which she absolutely loved. Meanwhile, Daddy took Deacon to Target to use some $ he had to buy a Dinosaur Train toy. Monday the 1st graders had a Cinderella Ball at school, which we all went to. Jordan also lost her other top tooth and received $2 more from the Tooth Fairy! She is saving her allowance to go w/ me to get a pedicure on my birthday. :)

The day she lost her other top tooth...
Being silly on Valentine's Day....
