England: Day One

Well, I am glad to be back in the U.S.of A.  I missed my baby boy like whoa.  Traveling is a lot of fun, but it sure does wear you down!  We were pretty much on the go from the moment our plane landed in London.  We met up with Terence’s cousin, Adrianne, and then headed straight for Windsor castle. 

WE HAD A BLAST….and I can’t wait for our next trippin adventure!  In the mean time enjoy a tour of England/Paris for the next few days…….

And of course first things first I did find my mother ship!

Starbucks at Windsor 🙂
We walked around for awhile.  The area is so nice and we were lucky it was great weather for our entire trip.  Terence had the traditional fish and chips and I had some yummy mac n cheese.
Our first dining experience in England

Me and Adrianne
She puts Martha Stewart to shame people…she’s a great cook and decorator!

Graham & Adrianne were so good to us and we had the best time!  Ethan, their almost two year old, was such a great sport and was so well behaved 🙂  We couldn’t ask for better tour guides and host/hostesses!  We love you and thank you so much!

 Sweet Ethan
 Yummy cupcakes

The Queen is home!!!

 Oh my gosh does this soldier not look like he’s 10 years old?  He’s so cute!

Prepare for more picture overload in the week to come…..

Happy 2nd Birthday Sweet Boy!

Happy Birthday my angel boy!  Two years ago today your Daddy and I got the best gift God could have ever given us….YOU.

It is so much fun for us to watch you grow and learn each day.  Your face lights up when you see something new.  You’ve taught us love in a way we would have never known without you.

You are my sunshine 🙂

I pray you grow to be a Godly man, a strong man, a kind hearted & smart man….but most of all I want you to grow to love the Lord and know His love for you as well.

We know you are a special gift.  I prayed before you were born that God would give me a special child.  I told God that I would do the best I can to raise you right….because you are not my child you are His…..

Oh what a blessing your life has been the past two years.  We could not imagine our lives without you in it.  You are an incredible soul my sweet Connor and we pray for guidance and protection, that you would know how loved you are each day, and how proud we are of you!  WE LOVE YOU!!!!

HAPPY 2nd BIRTHDAY!!!

Birthday Banner & Fun Tools+ A Giveaway!

I finished the birthday banner…

We are having his party on St. Patricks day.  What a better day to have a “Starbucks” green party eh?


Everyone wear your green so you don’t get pinched!  I can’t believe in a few weeks my baby boo will be TWO!  I am having a breakdown….sigh.


I should have done the whole banner in the glitter paper that the #2 is in.  But at $2 a sheet that would have been to pricey.  So I printed out the green letters and added some glitter on top.  Do you think it still looks okay?

Hope ya’ll are having a good Friday!!!
