Easter Weekend 2011

We went to visit our families Easter weekend. The kids spent time with both sets of grandparents, and I hung out with my Grandma and visited my Papa in the hospital. There is nothing like spending time with family. Alyssa and Daniel really enjoyed themselves. They especially enjoyed visiting Uncle Big Mike at the fire station and Pawpaw Wesley at Louisiana Machinery.

Please forgive us if we didn't see you this trip. We will be back this summer. We definitely have to visit my cousin Katherine and her new bundle of joy, my brother Al and his family and our Winnsboro family the next time.

Granny's Weekend visit

Mom came to town this weekend and we had a blast. She came to town for the Mother/Daughter Tea. Mom and Alyssa were so excited about this event. They would call each other about three times a week talking about their outfits. They are such girlie girls. I actually had a good time. It was like playing dress up with my mom and daughter. There is nothing like hanging with 2 of my favorite people.

Thanks again to Ms Rosalind for inviting us. We really enjoyed hanging out with you and the other ladies from the church on yesterday. Mom is already talking about making this an annual event for us to attend.

Third Day!!!!!!

I went to see Third Day last night with my friend Shannon. It was such an awesome concert. We had a really good time. I did not get home until 1:30 in the morning because after the concert the guys came out to the lobby with their instruments and sang more songs. WHO DOES THAT?????? Third Day does. The highlight of the evening was the impromptu show in the lobby. Thanks for the Third Day tickets Shannon. I am really happy that your daughter had plans and your bff had to work. Thanks to Shelby and Linda's hectic schedule I was able to see Third Day.

Congrats Montrell!!!!!

Those of you who know me know that I absolutely LOVE my baby brother Montrell. He is such a good guy. Well, he graduated from Southern University in Baton Rouge this past December in Electrical Engineering, and he recently found a job in his major in another city, not Dallas :-(. I had been praying for him to find a job here, but I guess God is telling me that I need to cut the cord. On this past Sunday we said goodbye to Montrell. The kids and I have absolutely enjoyed having him here and we will definitely miss him.

St. Patrick's Day 2011- Rainbow Cake

We had so much fun today. We had a St. Patrick's Day dinner party. When Elijah came home we had pizza and lime kool-aid. We made a rainbow cake for dessert. The cake was very tasty, and the kids absolutely enjoyed making it. Thanks Katie for sharing the recipe. The next time I make this cake I will work on my presentation. lol

Ryder Williams

This weekend we received our new puppy, Ryder. He is such a little bundle of joy. He is a mini Australian shepherd. The kids absolutely love him. Elijah is learning to love him ( he has small dog issues) lol. So far everything is good. I'll keep you guys posted. Enjoy the pictures.

Daniel turns 4!!!!!

Daniel was soo excited about his 4th birthday. He has been talking about it since Thanksgiving Day. I was feeling a little bad because I did not have anything planned for him. On his birthday morning we woke him up by singing happy birthday to him and giving him his gifts. I treated him to lunch at Chuck E Cheese. It was awesome. We were the only people in the restaurant the entire time we were there. I bought a small cake and Chucke E came and song Happy Birthday to him and hung out with us for a while. It was great, It was like he had a private party with Chuck. I am sure this is a birthday he will never forget.
