Girls Vacation to Perdido Key

I know, it has been FOREVER since I have updated. Other than being extremely busy, I have no other excuse :) Maddie and I just got back from a wonderful girl's weekend with my grandmother, aunt and cousin. We went to the beach and Maddie had a blast! It had been forever since she had seen the ocean, and it was beautiful. I am so amazed at God's workmanship through his creation.

Everyone here is doing great. Maddie just turned 4. No, I can't believe we have a 4 year old!!!! I feel so old! Landon just turned a year old. Where did the time go? Gavin is already over 2 1/2! Here are some recent pictures from our trip and then some of the boys. I will try to get better at updating more often :)

What We Have Been Up To

This past month has been crazy busy! Tonight is Brian's last night of working the night shift, so me and the kids (and Brian) and so excited! I'm ready to get back into our regular routine. It hasn't been too bad, but it is always a struggle to try and keep the kids somewhat quiet during the day while Brian is sleeping.

We have had a lot of exciting (good and bad) experiences this past month. Gavin had his first emergency room visit about a month ago. He accidently got his fingers caught in the bathroom door, and we thought they might be broken, so we made a visit to the ER. After trying to get the "perfect" x-ray (which took forever), we found out that everthing was fine...of course :) Another big thing, Gavin turned 2!!! Can't believe my sweet boy is already 2! He is getting so big. Last night he slept in his big boy bed for the first time! He did so good, and stayed in his bed the entire night. He is in his bed again tonight, and so far so good :)

Don't worry...We are still alive!

I know it has been almost an entire month since I have updated the blog, but we have been super busy around here lately! I promise to update very soon. A lot has been going on, and Brian is working the night shift this month for the outage. By the way, Gavin is turning 2 this Sunday! Can you believe it?

God Is So Good

Each time I look at these photos of my children, I am reminded of how much the Lord has truly blessed me with such a wonderful husband and three beautiful children. God has been so gracious to us.

Fun In The Snow

We finally got snow down here in the south! The kids loved it!

Picture Update!

Thought you could use another picture update! The kids are growing up so fast. Maddie is almost 3 1/2 years old, Gavin will be 2 next month, and Landon is almost 6 months old! The time is going by so fast. Enjoy the pics!

A Little Rest and Relaxation

Last weekend I was able to go on a women's retreat with my church, thanks to my wonderful husband and parents! It was so nice to get away for a weekend by myself and have some much needed rest and relaxation. We went to Epworth By The Sea on St. Simons Island. It was absolutely beautiful! I was definitely ready to come home by the end of the retreat to see my sweet babies (and of course Brian), but it was nice to spend some time with the ladies from church, especially my good friend Hadley.
It was the first time Brian had had Landon for more than a couple hours by himself, but he did awesome! Maddie went and stayed with my parents for the weekend, and Evan, my brother, came over to our house to help Brian out with the boys. I am so blessed to have such a wonderful family!
