Eleven Months Young

What a big girl our little girl is now. Eleven months and counting down to the big First birthday bash on Windy Hills Lane. What a fun time we’re going to have. Parrtay! Parrtay! I know Mommy has worked feverishly for weeks on creative ideas to make the party perfect for our lil Cupcake! Hint, hint…(Theme party!) The guest room is so full of decorations and goodies that it’s hard to see the bed! So charge up the batteries, get your iPhones ready, Caroline will be celebrated big and in style in only 23 days!!
I’m sure Caroline won’t really know what is going on other than, “Hey, I’m getting cake today and having to wear a fancy schmancy outfit, what’s up with this?” Seems just yesterday we were counting down the days until we would find out ‘what’ we were having. Then, we were counting down to ‘when’ we were having. I won’t even mention how long last May 18th seemed, sitting in the waiting room...t i c k  t o c k! I do believe the saying now more than ever…time does indeed fly.

Happy Anniversary To Granny & Papaw

Brown eyes met hazel from far across the room,

And that one look was held, by a future bride and groom.

They fell in love and courted, and then they exchanged vows

They had cuddles, they had laughter, they had their little rows.

They've shared their life together now, for 58 short years!

They've had their share of sorrow, disappointments and some tears.

They've also had their good times and raised a family

And I am as proud of them as parents as any child could be!

(I wish I could take credit for writing the poem but I can't. I found it by accident online and it was so fitting that I just had to use it today.)

Today is a very special day for two very special people. Fifty eight, yes, 58 years ago, my Mom and Dad married. There's not enough room on the blog to say how much they are loved or how much they mean to me and to so many others that know them. We ALL love you two so very much and hope your anniversary is as special to you as you are to all of us!

Easter Chick

Easter weekend was a grand time for Caroline! She went to Mimi and Papaw's house on Saturday to visit and hunt eggs with cousins, Livi and Lily. The girls looked precious in their smocked dresses and bows. Speaking of bows, little Miss Caroline has taken up the habit of feeling her hair to make sure there is no bow. If there's one, she will without fail, pull it out pronto! Anyway, back to the story....On Easter Sunday, Caroline with Mommy and Daddy, went to church services with Mimi, Papaw, Lily, Livi, Aunt Liana, Uncle Trey...I bet the pew was full!

After church, Caroline brought her Mommy and Daddy to Granny and Papaw Glenn's house for an Easter feast. Any time Granny says, "What do y'all want for lunch?", the general consensus is always the favorites of the family. We love her famous fried chicken, cream taters, English peas, and fried okra. Oh how we ate, and ate, and suffered! After lunch, we passed Caroline around until we got sleepy, which didn't take long! It was a wonderful Easter day spent with family!

Happy Days

Now that the pollen is gone, Caroline is enjoying the outdoors more. She loves to go strolling down the drive while Ace and Deuce walk along side her. Last week, we took the walker out on the concrete and let Caroline push herself around. She finally learned how to maneuver herself forward. Once she got the hang of it, Caroline was zippin' around the carport! Think of the fun when the tricycle lessons begin!!
