Party Party!

This weekend our friends Hillary and Josh came to stay with us for Harper's birthday party. They are one of our favorite couples. My girls LOVE them! They have the magic touch with our kids. Kristen acted a fool and kept them up most all night. I will never get over my chawedness.


The Birthday Baby and her beautiful mother. The party was so nice. Kelly could go into the business! Harper is a sweet baby!
Sarah Kate LOVES to eat. Look at her savoring the flavor of this cookie.
We left Harper's party and went to another party for Emily's friend, Korbyn. Doesn't every princess need a tattoo?
Sarah Grace, Emily and Korbyn
Check out SK. She found one boot to wear and a ball.
Snow White came to the party.

During Thanksgiving, we had family pictures made. I got this one framed last week. I got it at Hobby Lobby for half price!!!!

Thanks again for letting us stay! We had a great time. I'm just glad Kristen didn't bust through the door and eat me! All is well!

Looks like everyone had fun at the parties. Glad the girl's dresses fit. I told Kay to order us a picture of the girls from the photo shoot. They were very good.

Complicated

Maybe I am wrong, but I don't remember life being so complicated when I was in middle school. Everything is so competitive now.  Maybe it was back then and I just didn't realize it. Sarah Kate started playing city league softball a couple of weeks ago.   We've been encouraged to get her private batting lessons. When I was in third grade I started playing softball and I just did it for fun!  No stress at all, as far as I can remember!  I just played.  I wasn't very good, but I liked it! Ha! Emily started band this year!  Before school started, I got a letter from the school district strongly encouraging "your band student to take instrument lessons."  WHAT?  I bought into it and got Emily private clarinet lessons (which she really enjoys)! But, what happened to learning as you go?  I never thought about taking private trumpet lessons when I started band. It seems like most parents are striving for their child to be THE BEST.  I guess that's a go

Something Good to Eat

Ever since Steve and I started dating, when we would go to Mississippi, his aunt would make the BEST ROAST IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!! Steve's Dad's side of the family gets together at his Granny's house for lunch every Sunday after church. The food is always sooo good!!!!!!!!!!!! I have always taken a liking to his Aunt Judy's roast. It really is the best roast I have ever had. When we were there on Labor Day weekend, my sister in law asked Aunt Judy for the recipe. Aunt Judy began naming all the ingredients. She said Ranch Dressing mix, and I bugged my eyes out and nearly chocked. I HATE RANCH DRESSING. I don't even like to be in the room with it. I had to focus on the word MIX....not the mayo and butter milk and sour cream that you add to it. Just typing those words makes me shudder. The recipe sounded awful as she rattled off the ingredients, but I promise, you have got to make this if you like a good roast. Trust me on this. Here it is: Get a tender chuck

Life in Pictures!

Emily is enjoying her first year in band.  I am very impressed with her playing skill! Sarah Kate was recently awarded the empathy award at her school.  She is very deserving of this! Here we are before the Cotillion Holly Ball.
