The Year we all turned 30

Terence’s best friend since elementary school, Kyle, turned 30 tonight.  We celebrated dining on Kyle’s favorite food….Mexican.  Kyle has always been a very special friend to Terence, and I’m thankful that he has such a good friend!  Happy birthday Kyle we love ya!

 This picture was taken over 10 years ago at the lake by me 🙂 
A place you’ll see Kyle about 300 days out of the year!
Yes-they love each other what can I say??? ha.ha..
 Connor loves some Mexican rice!  It was finger licking good 😉
And 5 seconds later…..
 The whole gang
 Kyle’s sweet sister and Connor’s future girlfriend Hodges

 I had to take a picture of the back when I got home…it was HILARIOUS!

 Delicious cake
 We had a blast!  Thanks for having us (Kyle’s family) you are dear to us too!
It a couple months BOTH Terence & I will be 3-0!!!!
YIKES!!!

Rockin my Red Shoes

Connor got some new red shoes last weekend.  He thinks he is something else when he has big boy shoes on.  Now that he’s a walker and all (well sometimes).  I just wanted to snap a few photos for memories because he was looking so cute in his new shoes 🙂

Swing Momma?

Up Up Up

So sweet…I never want to forget him at this age. 

I love you sweet boy, even if you have been totally out of it because of the time change this week.  He’s not been wanting to go to sleep at night and when I wake him up in the mornings he is like a floppy bunny because he DOES not want to wake up.  Which makes Terence & I SO.TIRED.

Last night we visited Terence’s Granddaddy in the hospital.  He’s having another surgery on his head this week.  If you would keep our sweet Grandaddy in your prayers we would really appreciate it.  We love you Granddaddy!!!

GET WELL SOON!!!

Skidders Socks & Shoes

Connor and I recieved some really cool socks and shoes called “Skidders“. 
Innovative and hassle-free, Skidders introduces a new way to wear socks and shoes.

About Skidders:

A durable, non-slip outsole and cushioned insole will comfort and protect his/her feet during indoor and outdoor adventures. You will appreciate the pull-on design for easy on-and-off ability and she will appreciate the effortless cool look that little kids crave. Keep feet comfortable and stylish as our upper designs are colorful without the constraint of shoes. Our lightweight outsole provides the stability, flexibility, and traction that new walkers need.

Connor got some Skidders shoes & socks.  First of all let me say how CUTE they are!  Connor is just starting to walk and he falls a lot!  We have hardwood and tile floors & those can be very slick for a new walker to manouver on.  These have a gripper on the bottom of the sock and it’s almost impossible for him to skid around & they are so easy to get on and off.

Look how cute the camo shoes are!
This is what the bottom of the Skidders socks look like
Skidders even has adult sized socks with grippers for ME too!
I’m loving this leopard print…so cool right?  I slip and fall more than I’d care to admit…ha…ha…so I think I’m going to like wearing these 🙂  Thank you Skidders for our stylish new socks and shoes!

Help the B’s Adopt!

KLaw has designed a print for sale in her Etsy store to help Summer & Adam in their quest to become parents. They worked together to design this awesome print in memory of Daddy Butch.

And the best news about this print? That 100% of the proceeds from this print go to the B’s to help cover costs for their adoption process.

And, even better… the print at a discounted rate, just for you guys

So what are you waiting for?  I got mine today and I’m so excited to get it 🙂

<3 YOU SUMMER & ADAM :)

Yard Re-Do, Park Fun, & Big Boy Chair

Terence and I had a landscape guy come out today and look at our front yard.  We are thinking of getting the flower beds re-done.  Right now it’s just the plants the builder put in when we moved in.  They are looking pretty bad right now too!  We also want to get some landscape lighting and maybe some new pendant lighting for the foyer too!  We shall see….

The picture below is the kind of lighting we are looking into…it flows up onto the house and I think it makes ALL the difference….

We can’t get enough of the park these days 🙂

We are going to get Connor a new big boy chair.  We are thinking of going with the Recaro Pro Ride.  If you know my husband you know he researches EVERYTHING!  We went and tested this seat last week and really liked it!  It has a lot of cushion in it and was rated very well by consumers.
More from this past weekend coming soon……
