1997

What use to be one of my favorite all time holidays, now is just a holiday full of memories. I remember as a child celebrating the 4th with swimming, eating, horseback riding, decorating our bikes for the parade, fireworks, and our entire family sleeping over at my grandparents. What use to be a week long celebration is now 1 day that we keep celebrating as a family for our little ones. My grandmother passed away on July 2nd of 1997. On July 4th was the last day I got to see my Nanny before laying her body to rest shortly after. My Nanny was one of the most amazing women I have ever met. She was beautiful inside and out. I think about her every day and how much she would enjoy all these great grand-kids running around, swimming, playing, and destroying her house. She was just that kind of woman. As long as her family was with her nothing else mattered. You see this holiday is bittersweet... I enjoy being with my entire family, but remember all too well the year of 1997 and how heartbroken I was. Hugs and kisses Nanny! You are loved and missed!

Father's Day 2012


Happy Father's Day 2012

To the Man who started all of this: Doc, You are a great example of what
a Dad, Grandfather, and Great-Grandfather should be. I love you more
and more each day!

To my father in law~ Thanks for everything you do for us. We love you!
Dad~ You often wonder if you are a hero? You have a daughter, don't you? Dad,
You are my hero, my first love, and someone I know I can always count on. Your love
for your family is unconditional and for all these things... We are BLESSED!
Have you ever had someone in your life who has been like a dad to you?
In more ways that one Papaw Dickie is just that. I am very thankful
for the love he shares for my family.

Jeremy~ You are my best friend and the BEST Daddy in the world. I love you
more and more each day and can't wait to see what our future holds together as
a family.




Cheerleading Camp & Swim Lessons

Rylee had one busy week. She attended LHS cheer camp from 8-12 each day then swim lessons in the afternoon. Here is a few memories of her week.






More baseball

Well baseball season has finally came to a close. It was an ok year for the Cubs, but the Braves really struggled. The Braves have a lot of young players, including Tucker. Here are just a few shots of our season.

Tucker's Swim Party

The morning of his swim party it was rainy, windy, and just plain yucky. However, by early afternoon the dark clouds rolled out and blue skies were in sight. We ran around and gathered last minute things for his party and then headed to the pool to PARRRTY!!! I must admit it was a little cooler than we would have liked, but the kids had a blast! Tucker is so fortunate to have so many good friends and a wonderful family. He is one fortunate and blessed little boy.


















Pre- K Celebration

Rylee's pre-k celebration was such a hit! She was dressed as  a cowgirl and put on quite the show. She had wonderful teachers this past year and has learned so much. I am very proud of her! She was so excited about getting a trophy today and receiving a "reward" (award). Rylee was chosen as BEST ALL AROUND in her pre-k class.
