After a year's break, I am picking up blogging again!

I was looking for a specific picture from my phone today and I ended up finding it on an old blog post. It made me realize how much fun these posts will be one day when the kids are grown to be able to let them read and go over. So here's to a new beginning of blogging!

To catch things up, Camden is about to graduate from 1st grade and Neil from Kindergarten, (where is the time going???) and they both keep me busy!
Camden is in gymnastics and they are both taking Taekwondo and loving it.  On Monday (February 29, 2016) we purchased some land :):):) Our house is listed for sale and once it does we can start building!! I am beyond excited as are the kids and Marvin!!

It is so peaceful there and is the perfect spot for us! GOD is good!!



The tiny person is Camden standing towards the front where our house will face

Marvin and Neil standing in our future "back yard"

Our own little pond :):):)


Every time we come this is where he ends up.

Daddy Daughter Dance 2016 - Magnolia Heights

This year the school offered an amazing fundraiser with a Daddy Daughter Dance.  Camden was so excited and her Daddy gave her a corsage to wear! They had a blast and I was so thankful for the school providing a photo booth and pictures as well :):) A room full of dads only might not produce pictures for the occasion otherwise.



getting ready :)


Her first date!


Lily and Camden








Camden and Eliza Durden






What a sweet night!

Our 1st Disney Vacation!!!! (Day 1)

For Christmas we gave the children a trip to Disney World.  They were excited and it was also their very first flight as well.  It started off super chilly when we left from Memphis that morning but when we landed in Florida it was sunny and warm.

Day 1, Thursday, January 14, 2016


Memphis airport bright and early!


Honorary Badges 


1st flight ever for the kids :):)

She was so excited to sit by the window:)






Our Resort!











First 1/2 day was spent at the Magic Kingdom and we went to TomorrowLand first.
We met up with Stacy, Allen, Lily, Claire, Nana, and Pop Pop!




Marvin & Camden loved this ride :)






At this point we realized that DisneyWorld actually takes your pictures on most every ride :)


He was so excited to meet Buzz Light Year



 Everyday and night and pretty much anytime there are dance parties happening in the streets!

Houston Success School - January 8th - 10th

This weekend was our AdvoNation training.  We usually attend the one in Atlanta but this year it fell on the weekend we would be in DisneyWorld :):).

All I can say Houston is way too big for me! It was an amazing training and I did love seeing the city but I was never so happy to see Mayberry than when we got home.  Trees and slow drivers are my thing :)
