Mother's Day 2013

 

After church on Sunday, the boys and went to Booneville to celebrate some very special mothers.  My aunt Lisa had everyone over for some great lunch and we ate with my grandmother.  I didn't get any pictures, but we really had a great time.  Then, we headed to my mom's house.

 

Sweet little Brylin.  I can't believe how big this boy is getting.  He is so cute and is a sweetheart!

 

 

 Gator and 4wheeler fun!

 My greatest blessings call me Mom.  I love these sweet boys with all of my heart and am their biggest fan!

 Loving on their Mamaw.  She is such an amazing Mom and Mamaw to 3 girls and 7 grandsons, a personal hero of mine.  I am blessed to call her Mom!!!

 Me and my Sissy!   She is the best friend, mom, aunt and sister EVER.

 Mom with all of our boys.  It is quite a challenge to get 7 boys to look and smile at the same time!

 Sissy and her handsome boys.  Carter decided to be part of the fam for the first one :).

 My little monkey!!!

 No training wheels anymore... Cash is too big!

 Carter and Brylin being silly. 

 Ready for some 4wheeler fun with Papaw.

 Life is good for this crew!

 That evening Papaw and Nana got back home from an Ole Miss baseball game and we took her some goodies.  She is the best Nana to these sweet boys.  I don't know what I would do without her support.  #1 fans of Nana below!!!

 

I hope that all of my wonderful friends and family had a blessed day!  I know that I sure did :)!!!



Mother's Day tea and cookies with my boys

This week, I was invited to attend Mother's Day tea and cookies with my both of my boys at their school.  It was so much fun and to see the excitement Will and Carter's eyes when they gave me gifts that they made was the sweetest thing ever.  I am such a blessed momma!

 

 

Me and my Will

 

 This sweet boy could not have been more excited about this flower and pot.  His eyes are closed in his picture, but he always shows that sweet smile that I love.

 Me and Carter bug.  A little blurry, since it was from my phone.

 We both ate chocolate chip, our favorite!

 Here are the reasons why he thinks his momma is great :). 

 

All of my goodies!

 



 

 

I love my sweet boys so much and am thankful for great teachers who helped them make me feel so special :).

Reed's 6th birthday party

 

On April 20th, we went to Reed Gapen's 6th birthday party at Skyzone.  I can't believe that he is already 6!!!  All of these kiddos have grown way too fast.  It was so much fun and I can't wait to take Will and Carter back this summer!

 

Will and the birthday boy jumping and having a blast.

 

Carter was scared at first, but finally came out of his shell and loved it!  Love these two shots.

 Such cute brothers

 The boys both loved jumping into the soft blocks!

 Annnd, we then got to enjoy some delicious cake (which Erin made herself - such a talented and sweet momma!).  I love Reed's expression and he was such a cute and sweet birthday boy!

 

Thanks for including us on your special day, Reed!  It was so much fun!



Will's 1st baseball game

Will had his 1st T Ball game this past Tuesday night.  It was SO MUCH FUN watching him play!  Eddie loved playing baseball and I loved playing softball growing up, so it has been slightly encouraged in our house :). 

 

Our little Detroit Tiger... I am not a big fan of the major league team, but this is ONE ADORABLE Tiger!!!

 

 Will and his friend Preston chatting it up on the bench while they waited to bat.

 Love this image... #1 fan!!!

 His first time at bat getting a pep talk from the coach.  Leftie like Daddy!  He did get three great hits; he just forgot to run the first time :)!

 Game face after scoring!

This little boy can't wait until he is old enough to play. Until then, he made lots of friends and they threw ball during Will's game! 

 

 

This season is going to be so much fun.   Will can't wait for his game on Saturday :)!

Happy 5th birthday, Will!!!

Will turned 5 this past Wednesday, April 3rd... big TEAR from this momma.  The past five years have been the most blessed and the fastest five of my life.  I thank God for this angel and pray for him every day.  He has smile and face that will light up a room, is so smart, and has the sweetest heart of any little guy that I know.  He is also alllll boy and loves all things loud, dirty and destructive:). 

 

Birthday collage - I adore each one of the pictures below and remember the exact moment that they were taken!  Happy, happy birthday, big boy! 

 

 

He had a really great birthday.  I took Batman cupcakes to his school, his Papaw and Nana picked him up early from school and we went to dinner after Eddie and I got off work.  After, we opened presents, ate cake and played games.

 

Cutest birthday boy!

 

 

Will, Daddy and Papaw grubbing!

 Ice cream and lava cake time... happy birthday!

Here are the cakes that Nana got for the boys.  A gator and lady bug.

 Will opening his "happy" from Nana.

 When Will stays in Booneville, he always plays Eddie's old Mouse Trap game, so Nana bought him one of his own!

 Fun times!  Love these boys... sweet memories!

Annnd, here is Will's present from Daddy, Momma and Carter!  He is obsessed with the computer, our phones, all things electronic.  I did some research and found him a Nabi tablet.  He LOVES his new toy!!!

 

Birthday party details will follow soon.  I am thinking of having a joint birthday party for the boys this year.  I will keep everyone posted :).
