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.

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!

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!

Fun in the MUD!

What started out as an afternoon in the pool soon turned into a mud party!

These kids are best friends and cousins. 

Back to School!

I cannot believe that I have a Kindergartener and a little boy in 4k! Neil and Camden both had a fantastic first day last Friday. Marvin took them to school for their first day since I was in Dallas. But today was their first full day and Camden was ecstatic when she got in the car!! She was sooo happy she got to lay on her new nap mat and eat her lunch from the cafeteria. Neil on the other hand was thrilled about having alone time with me and Marvin. My babies are growing up too fast but I am eternally grateful for the time we get to spend with them! I am also grateful for such a wonderful school and fabulous teachers! 

Super Nana!

Mama came this past weekend to keep Stacy's kiddos. While she was here she stopped by to visit for a little while. We showed her Camden's new school shoes (which had laces) and in less than 5 minutes she taught her how to tie her shoes! We've tried several times to no avail. We are thankful for grandmothers!

Where Did Summer Go??

Its hard to believe summer is coming to an end and August is in full swing starting with the kids school this Friday and me leaving for Dallas on Thursday. These two have had a wonderful summer filled with family, fun, friends, travel but most of all their Daddy! We are living a life most people only dream of and I thank God everyday for these blessings! 

Vacation 2014 - Day 2

Day 1- we woke up BEFORE the water park opened so we decided to hit the pool!

Lunch on the balcony :)

Free Exotic Bird Event at our Resort

                                          Neil picked out the Pirate Parrot and Camden said her's matched her outfit

 After the water park we took a break from being inside and went exploring in the "wilderness"
