Weekend Adventures since I have my weekends off NOW!

What fun we have been having together with me having my weekends off now. The first weekend I felt extremely guilty for not being at work the second weekend was better and I am ready for my third one. Here are a few pics from our adventures.

Maddie Graduates from K4!

Well it is official Maddie is going to big girl school next year! She is sooo excited. We have registered her and now are praying that she gets a great teacher! We had such a special and wonderful time at her graduation on Thursday. Ms. Tammy spoke her teacher and it was very touching. They sung a couple of songs that where cute and then received their diploma's.

Our fast trip to Atlanta!

What fun we had running over to Atlanta to enjoy some family time before I started my new job! We visited the World of Coke, the Atlanta Aquar., CNN Studios, went and celebrated Cinco de Mayo with Mindy, Randall, Caroline, Kristin, and Clayton as well as stopped off at the Atlanta Zoo on our way home. The Varsity was a must eat at too. If you haven't been to the World of Coke you need to visit it...you can taste every drink that is bottled by coke all over the world...my family have came to the conclusion that if it wasn't for classic Coke and the other coke products bottled here in N. America than we wouldn't be drinking Coke products. Our second stop was the Aquarium and WOW! I don't like Aquarium's I think they smell bad but hey this one was awesome....Maddie loved it however thought that a shark was going to eat her because we kept telling her that the only way the sharks would break through the glass was if he smelt blood (we told her this the whole way to Atlanta and before we left and when we got there) anyway right as we where fixing to enter in she feel and cut her knee to the point it was bleeding a little bit and we saw a guy that must have been feeding the fish right before he walked outside because he had on a dr.'s jacket with blood all over the side of it and Luke had just got out of his mouth "he must have gotten bit by one of the sharks look how bloody he is I bet he was bleeding and they smelt him" and then Maddie feel down, so needless to say she wasn't paniced about entering. She was crying and I had to carry her in because she was so scared, she ended up loving every minute of it and Alex, oh man, was just in awe..he kept running around and pointing at the fish and saying "Ish, Ish, Mama", I could have just ate him. Well then our next stop was CNN studio. Luke and I thought that we where sooooo smart and would go to the less kid friendly event while Alex was a sleep and thought the Maddie would be okay and think some parts where interesting so we walk over to CNN from the Aquarium and buy our tickets (non refundable) and the lady said get in line and start unloading the stroller this is a 8 story tour and you have to walk up and down all 8 stories of stairs so you can't take the stroller...I was so mad that they didn't tell us until After we had purchased the tickets. Well we wake up Alex and we go on, the tour was interesting to Luke and I put not so much to the babies we had to stay at the back of the tour and step out every once and a while with Al but over all it was okay and most of all my arms where killing me at the end because Alex wouldn't let his Daddy carry him because of him being still sleepy. Okay well then we went to Mindy's and had a great dinner and enjoyed them like always. Man oh Man Caroline's prom dress was gorgous, I got a steak pick of it. Then we went back to the suite and swam a little and got in the hot tub before bed then nighty night we went. Well morning came and up and out the door we went to the Zoo....we had so much fun especially Alex being outside and seeing all the animals which he thinks are all the big ones are "COW". Once we arrived home we went straight to the camper at camped the rest of the week...which we all enjoyed, getting dirty, ride bikes and cooking out.

Busy Weekend!

What a weekend we had. We went to the movies, Maddie went to a b'day party, and skipped another one, I had a huge Grand Opening at our subdivsion, we killed a snake that was longer than me, we went out to eat to celebrate my b'day with my parents on Sat. night and then on Sunday we went out to eat with Luke's family for my birthday, went to our church social, went to the dr. with Al and lets see....I am sure I am forgeting several other events. Anyway here are some of the pictures from our funny weekend. I don't think my babies would know what to do if they had a free weekend. But we alway have fun and love being together.

ice cream and singing

We had a very busy day....Mae went to the oral surgeon today for her extra front tooth she has...we have to wait until she loses her front two upper teeth before they can do anything because of the roots....So that was a little releaf that we don't have to go through mouth surgery right now. Anyway we came home and Al and Mae were both about to drive me crazy saying outside Mama...Can we go outside...outside Mama...Can we go outside (about 150) times while I was unloading the grocery's. Anyway we picked the perfect time to enjoy the sunshine...the ice cream man came down the road just about the time we walked out the door, so we bought some ice cream and just got all messy and enjoyed life outside. We had to come back in after the ice cream fest to get cleaned up and once we got out of the tub, little man thought that he would put on an Elvis show for us and sing Jesus Loves Me. It was priceless. Next time you all see him maybe (more than likely he want) he will sing it for you...it is the cutest thing. All you can understand is Jesus Loves and the rest is just the tune. I Love it. He has to be all decked out with his (Mae's) microphone and guitar, I am telling you it is just the best.

Sliding, swinging and eating rocks!

We had a few minutes before Mae's gymnastics class today and decided to stop by the park and saw that Aunt Amy was home and invited Laren and Matt to join us in our little outing to the park ....Oh My!!! They had lots of fun. Laren was a little scared of the slide but loved it after she went down the first time, of course Mae went straight down and little man was right there with both of them Aunt Amy had to slide with him since it was the big slide and she was already up at the top helping Laren...I was the catcher and picture taker. Anyway it was fun and sweaty.

Laren's B'day, Tea Party and Fun in the Sun Pics

I have been extremely busy and on the go...We had Laren's 3rd b'day party at the Lake and then we had the "All for Nana" charity tea party that was lots of fun the following weekend and Alex thinks everytime he wakes up he has to go outside so I have attached a few of the pics. I have of him playing. Oh Yeah! Dad, Uncle Johnny and Luke all went fishing too and caught some big fish and here a few pics of them.

Plus little man thinks he has to be like Daddy and fix everything.
