Please pray for those about to make some VERY hard decisions.....Please pray for teachers & kids affected by this situation. Pray that things can only get better from here....the HAVE to!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Well, I feel like I am particulary blessed because i have 2 precious valentines!

On Sunday me & Blayne celebrated the day by going to a movie & late lunch by oursleves! Thank you Nana & Pop for keeping the little guy. We had a very nice afternoon! We don't do al ot of things alone...we usually have Cole or go with another couple...so it was extremely nice to just be us:)

Cole & Blayne also surprised me with pink roses at school.....sweet boys!

Cole also made me a valentine at school...very sweet.

Then tonight when Daddy got home we ate a steak dinner....gave Cole a few Valentine prizes & we all shared a heart of chocolates!

I know some people consider it an "over-rated" holiday...but we love celebrations around here...so its another day to enjoy life! And God sure did make it beautiful outside today in Alabama!!!

I hope you all had a Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Birthday Ashton!

We celebrated Ashton's 6th birthday at Chick-Fil-A last night! The kids had a GREAT time! I cannot believe that girl is 6 already! She is growing up so fast! She is such a smart and beautiful little girl. I have the privilege of seeing her everyday in my class & I am so proud of who she was become and cannot wait to see what lies ahead. Happy Birthday to the first little girl who ever stole my heart!

Happy Birthday Emily

Last weekend we went out and celebrated Emily's birthday! We had a nice dinner laughing & then went and saw The Dilemma....extremely funny! I Love Vince Vaughn....he is hilarious!

It was a good night out with the girls:)

The Greatest Show on Earth

Sunday night we took Cole to the Circus! It really was a GREAT show! Very intertaining! Brooke, Josh, & Lucy joined us & Brad Courtney & Shelby sat right beside us too! The kids behaved very well...although Cole did take 6 potty breaks and mommy was exhausted:)

Although I do believe they should be ashamed of ticket prices...I will say that they put on a very good show...lots of movement interesting stunts!

I'm glad we were able to go...good memories to have!
