Happy Birthday Abby!!

Abby celebrated her 5th birthday by going to "Libby Lu". She took 2 of her friends along and they all had so much fun and were so cute getting all dolled up. I really can't believe she is 5 already! She is something else-I'm telling ya'll. She's so funny and definately keeps us entertained. Here are some pictures from her birthday and a couple of her bobbing for apples for the first time at a Fall Festival. I thought they turned out cute.

Latest Pictures

Well, I've finally taken advantage of the great portrait package I won from Target Studios. We spent a whole day taking pictures of the whole family. I am so thrilled with the results. Here are a couple to sample:

My Big Girl Turned 7!

Alyson turned 7 on September 22. It's so hard to believe because seriously it just seemed like I gave birth to her not too long ago. Gosh, the years fly by. She's such a caring, smart and loving little girl and I'm proud to call her my daughter. Here are a few pictures from her big day. We took her to Build-A-Bear Workshop for the first time. She absolutely loved it. Afterward, we took her for pizza and then came back home for cake with a few friends and family. It was a special day for her.

Here's one of Abby cheesin'.
Bryson's ooooohhhh'n and aaaaahhhhh'n.

Abby and her teacher, Mrs. Cothren. She was also Alyson's teacher and will hopefully be Bryson's when he gets to Pre-K. We love her!!

Our Little Artist

I know all of the blogs I've written lately are all about Alyson, but she's been the only one with "news". And I've still got to blog about her b-day. I promise I don't have a favorite child!!

We are so proud of Alyson, she has won the drawing contest for the whole 1st grade. Her drawing goes on all of the class t-shirts for the whole grade. She got her shirt for free, but I of course had to order myself one to proudly show off. We're not quite sure where she got her drawing ability, definately not from me or her Daddy. Enjoy the picture. (I had kind of a hard time scanning a shirt.)
