Lots of Visitors

Last weekend, Veronica, Brandon and Sophie came up to stay for the weekend. I had a fabulous time with my sister - getting our nails done, going shopping and just spending time together. Not to mention chasing Miss Sophie Mae around all weekend! The girl has ENERGY that doesn't stop! What a cutie-pie.


This past weekend, we arranged for Anna and Livia to come over to spend the night. I tell ya what, the air popper is the best gift we registered for - our nieces and nephew love it! It keeps them quite entertained. We got pizza, rented movies (with popcorn, of course!), made bracelets and played games. I was a little worried how they would do, since they had never spent the night at our house before . . . I didn't want them to be afraid. But they did great! Anna is such a good big sister and Livia just cracked us up! Everytime Livia would start to say something, Anna would interrupt and Livia would hold her hand up and say, "Anna, I'm talking. I'M TALKING ANNA!" SO funny coming from an almost 4 year-old!

Saturday, we had plans to take the girls to Chuckie Cheese. Beforehand, Brook got up and took them to get donuts and hot cocoa at the local coffee shop, while I got ready. Right after they got home, there was a knock on the door. Hmm, who could it be? I thought it was our neighbors and was a tad annoyed that they came in through our garage and didn't go to the front door. (Long story behind that one.) Anywho, the door opens and Connor and Maria come running in to give me a giant hug! (Their parents & Julia were right behind them.) Everyone was in on it to surprise me! And what an AWESOME surprise it was! We all went up to Chuckie Cheese and Anna and Livia had a great time playing with Maria and Connor. And I think Anna seriously wants another baby sister (Hehe, April). It was a fabulous day . . . no other way to describe it. We are so blessed.


My Favorite Cowboy


Connor, AKA "Woody" from Toy Story, turned 2 at the end of February. My adorable little Godson is getting so big, sometimes I forget he is just 2! He is becoming quite the little man and never wants to be left out of what his big sister is doing. It is so fun watching him grow up!
