Gardendale held their annual Magnolia Festival and we were able to again this year. We went on Friday night since Saturday was packed already and sadly most of it was not open so the girls missed the jumpies, ponies, lemonade, and a few things that we normally enjoy. Then also this year we ran into… Continue reading Magnolia Festival 2018
Leia’s last field trip in 2nd grade was to the Botanical Gardens. It was a short field trip and as many parents as wanted could come to it. The kids arrived at 9:30 and left at 11:30. There were so many parents there was a parent to every 1.5 kids. We all enjoyed having free… Continue reading Leia’s field trip to Botanical Gardens (2nd grade)
We had a family date night. Normally Lisa helps the girls with their hair and all but this time Leia told Ivy she’d help her get ready. They wanted to surprise mommy and daddy on “how fancy they could dress”. Love our fun family date nights and this season of our life. We are blessed… Continue reading Misc times in April
The weekend fun started early for Ivy since she had a field trip to the zoo. She said her favorite part was seeing the animals and wanted to do it again so we ended up buying a membership for the first time ever (previously neither of our princesses have enjoyed the zoo). Our group consisted… Continue reading Weekend fun: Ivy’s Zoo Field Trip, Secret Keepers, Mimi’s, and more
Thankful Chris changed our flights from Wednesday to Thursday after hearing a big snow storm would be hitting NYC which ended up cancelling the flights we were suppose to take on Wednesday.

Birthdays are sweet when you are surrounded by people you love.

Mommy thought the best… Continue reading Happy Birthday Lisa
The schedule and budget was not what we planned but boy it is worth it. The girls love getting to go outside when they want without having to wait on someone to go with them. Life is sweet with our precious girls and loving husband/wife! So glad our daddy is a good sport
Lisa was fortunate to get to help with Bible Club this year. On the final day we invited our group, Girls Squad over for a little fun. We ordered pizza, had a chocolate fondue fountain, and the girls just got to play, cut-up, laugh and enjoy non-structure time together. So enjoy hearing their laughs and… Continue reading VHEW Bible Club
Treasuring the mornings our girlies ask, “mommy are you working today? If not can you come have lunch with me? I really like seeing you when I am at school and spending time with you”.
A miscellanous collection of moments that make us smile because this is us, our beautiful life together … Love this season in life and our family! Sweet morning snuggles in Leia’s bed with our girlies! Love getting to lay there and just talk to them. They both are so incredible. As we were getting… Continue reading Loving life with our friends and family
