Home from School!!!




Maddie has some surprises when she got home from school!  We got her the design notebooks that she has been wanting.  Grandma & Grandpa also sent her cards with "goodies" in them.  She LOVED them!  And, last but not least, we had her cake ready when she got home.  Maddie LOVES Sponge Bob and Edgars....sooooo, it made sense to have Edgars make Sponge Bob.  They did an awesome job!  She really loved it!!!!!!

Happy Birthday to Miss Maddie Clare! 10 Years...









Happy 10th Birthday Maddie Clare!  We can not believe that you are going to be 10 years old.  We are so proud of the outstanding young lady you are becoming!  You bring such joy and humor to our lives, and each day would not be complete without you in it!  We are so proud to be your Mama and Daddy, Love you baby girl.....so very much!

Maddie has decided that she wants to go eat @ the Olive Garden for dinner on her bday.  She LOVES Sponge bob, soooo.....Buddy snuck to Edgars today and ordered her a Sponge bob cake.  That's her favorite place!  She LOVED her bday shirt we made, and can't wait to wear it to school tomorrow.  The outfit is complete with freshly painted nails (and of course alternate colored painted toes of pink an purple!)  It should be a fun day!

Doctor with PawPaw!



Yesterday was PawPaw's Dr appt.  Debbie and I took him to his appt.  It was an adventure as always!  He got a good report.  They want him to use the bone stimulator for another 6 months, and TOOK HIM OUT OF THE COLLAR!!!  He was so excited!  I know it's a lot cooler.  We had such a great time.  We cut up the whole time.  He is so precious, and I love him so much! 



PawPaw w/out his collar...



So, after the Dr, we went to lunch.  Of course we had to choose somewhere he had never been, Habeneros!  He looked like we took him to a strip club or something.  He had fun, don't think he cared too much for the food, but he will have an adventure to tell his friends about!




PawPaw and Chely

Being a little creative!







A Visit with Kylie and Jordan (& Carsyn-surprise! Love it)




Jordan and Kylie came into town for the weekend.  We got to go visit with them today.  It was so much fun getting to see them, and we loved visiting.  Every minute with them is so precious.  Jordan looks great, and Kylie is so sweet.  She slept the whole time we were there just about.  Babies love to make story tellers out of their Mammas!  We got an extra treat!  Carsyn came over after school, so we got a few minutes with her too.  We had a really great day!  M & M had another great day @ school.  After tomorrow, they will have made it another week.  They are still doing so well.  We are so proud of them.  FAMILY is so important! Thank you Jordan, Carsyn, and Kylie for visiting with us today!  We love you!

Baby Kylie...





Miss Kylie is so precious!  I stole these pics from Jordan's FB page...  She has changed so much in just a few weeks.  I talk to Jordan frequently, and she is doing such an amazing job.  She is really exhausted.  Kylie isn't sleeping a whole lot.  She is at the Dr today.  She has a little virus, and is very fussy.  Please say a little prayer for the "princess in training", and her new parents as they deal with this.  We are going to make a trip this week to go visit, and give Jordan a chance to rest.  We love you Jordan, Sean, and Kylie!

Friday!!! Woohoo! TGIF!!!


 



We made it!!!  M&M made it through the first week of school!  We are all pooped, but we feel like we have accomplished something this week, lol.  I am so proud of both of our girls.  Meagan is handling the middle school like a pro already, and Maddie is ruling the elementary school.  I was worried about them being apart, but they are doing so good....not missing a beat!  Go M&M!  Now you can sleep half the day tomorrow....LOL

Thursday...3rd day of school!





3rd day of school!  Woohoo!  I am so proud of M&M.  They are doing so good so far.  I know that it's only the 3rd day, but usually I am already seeing signs of burn out.  After the summer we've had, it's nice to see some kind of "normal" routine.

2nd Day of School!







Well, they made through their 2nd day of school!  Meagan did so much better with her locker.  She only needed help once.  I also talked to her bus driver, and she is now being picked up and dropped off in our driveway...woohoo!  She loves it still!  She loves PE and advanced math...is this my child?  Maddie is loving her teacher!  She helped with morning announcements this morning because she is the student council secretary.  That made her feel so good!  She had been so organized, and yes I know it's only day 2, but if you know Maddie-you know that is really BIG!  I am so proud of both of them!!!

They got HITCHED!!! Mike and Steph June 30, 2010

Steph, Mike, and Allison


Mike and Allison

Mike and Steph (CAKE)

(Soooo...I posted this before and it disappeared...here's attempt #2)


They did it!  Steph and Mike "tied the knot".  They live together in Tupelo, MS, where Mike is from.  They have been together for a while.  They got engaged last year, and have not looked back.  Mike has seemed like part of the family since day one.  Steph always said, "we will just get up one day and decide to get married, and that will be the day", and they did!  Steph called the day before to tell us that she and Mike would be getting married the next morning.  We sooo hate we couldn't be there!  It was a 2 1/2 drive, and I didn't want to push the ole Taurus any more than we already do (and Buddy was out of town).  She sent pics, and Mikes dad, step mom, and daughter got to be there with them.  She is so happy, and no one deserves this more than she does.  She had a rough few years, and it's so nice to see her settled and HAPPY!  So, on June 30th we gained a brother and a niece and extended family!  We love you Mike and Steph!  We wish you many many years of happiness!!! 

Playing Catch Up...Again!



 






Here are some pics of things we did in the last few weeks.  I have not been very good keeping photos uploaded lately.  I have to get better at this since school has started, lol.  If you couldn't tell...our niece Jordan, had her baby girl, Kylie Jo.  She is so precious.  We took her a few goodies to the hospital.  They are living in Auburn, so we haven't got to visit a lot, but we keep checking in with them.  Being a new mom can be overwhelming, but Jordan is doing a great job!

We also went to Bubba's bday party @ Chick-fil-a and to a Baron's game.  He had a ball!!!  The girls liked it too...it was just really HOT!  I can't believe how big he is getting.  We love you Bubba!

Well, last but not least, my Paw Paw turned 90!!!!  We were not sure we would see this day come.  He has had a rough month and a half.  He is doing so good.  He is up and around.  NOTHING keeps this man down.  He gets around better than me some days, lol.  We got him an ice cream cake, and headed to Minor to celebrate with him.  It was nice getting to spend some time with him.  I think he liked the cake too!
