Carrie's First Baby Shower!

We are anxiously awaiting the arrival Kenden's cousin, Chase Luke! Today started the first of 4 showers for Carrie. This one was thrown by her sisters, Dawn and Laurie, and they did a fantastic job. Carrie received a ton of wonderful things and she's told me that she's already organized and put everything away! Ready for round 2 on March 14th!

The beautiful Mommy To Be!


Carrie's grandmothers playing the Dirty Diaper Game! They were so funny looking at and sniffing each diaper...

Right before this pic, Carrie's Nana (in the dark sweater) looked at her Grandma and mumbled, "Well, it all looks like S#!% to me!" hahaha! SO FUNNY!




Opening Gifts....

Helpin' Dada put Knobs on the Cabinet!

Blowing Mama a kiss before he started helping put the hardware on the cabinets in his bathroom!


Kenden helping Dada work the REAL drill! He was so very excited, and it was the first time he and Jeff didn't "butt heads" while Kenden was trying to get in on the action of being a big helper!

A Playdate With Friends!

What a fantastic day! We took advantage of a few great situations...Jeff was out of town, so I thought it would be a SUPER day for a bunch of moms and kids to take over the house; #2 my good friend Theresa was in town with her 2 great kids, Gabe and Wesley; and #3 we had some BEAUTIFUL weather here in good ole' VB!! I invited Kelly and Blake, Sandra and Kayla, and Theresa and her kiddos over for a morning playdate! We had sooo much fun! The kids started off the morning inside, but we quickly moved outdoors because it was just to nice to pass up! As you can see, we had a ball....it made us really look forward to spring, that is for sure!

We started out inside....

....and quickly went outside because the weather was WONDERFUL!!


Strap in and....
