6 years...

Well, six years ago we got married! Holy smokes....six years! It has been quite a ride since the summer of 2003. I feel so blessed to have married Grant. I may not be the easiest person to live with, but he doesn't complain much and I really love that!!!

This is us on our wedding day and us now! I feel aged! And old, but that's how it goes right?!

Seriously...two peas in a pod! Miss that guy!!!

Birthday Party

We had a birthday party for the girl this weekend. Morgan has a lot of little friends though my work and my friends. I love having friends with kids in the same age range! We had a bbq with friends and a small pool and waterslide for the kiddos! Everyone seemed to have a good time even if there wasn't any wind and the humidity was OUT OF CONTROL! We really have some friends and are so thankful for them all, even the ones who couldn't make it! We need to get together more often, but that's easier said then done! Thanks for coming everyone and for the great gifts for Miss Morgan!

This is what Cole did most of the time at the party!

4 year old girl!

Morgan went to KDO on her birthday and brought cookies for her class! Oh, and got to be the line leader!

She wanted a Rainbow cake, so we made one! It was so good!!!!

Here it is!

She got a lot of Princess things!

Cole loves to have his toes painted! What a good big sister!

My Princess

My baby girl turned 4 today! I think it's funny that everytime a birthday rolls around that the Mom always recalls the day of their baby's 'birth'! Of course, I'll never forget Morgan's birth. We went in around 6am and I was being induced. I was TOTALLY petrified of giving birth and just about passed out the day before when the Dr. said I was coming in in the morning! It was quite the nightmare of a day.... 14 hours of labor, 3 pumps in my epidural (no take), residents checking my progress and then at 11pm, I was told that I was going in for a C-Section...ahhh, relief! I was put completley under because the epidural never took...fun! Out she came at 11:31! What a beautiful baby she was. And now she's 4! And soooooo sassy!!!!!

We don't do any 'traditions' on the kids birthdays, but we always try and make it the best one! And I think we do ok!

Even if she's the sassiest thing on the block, I think God for her EVERY SINGLE DAY! She's my angel that was sent to us in a time when we really needed something to look forward to! I will thank the Lord everyday of my life for that reason alone!

July 4th 2009

Here is our 4th in a nut shell....They have matching outfits! Cute huh? We did fireworks out side until it was dark and the went to the river to watch the fireworks downtown. In between those times, I made homemade fried chicken! It was a good holiday!
