Spence's 2nd Birthday!!

We celebrated Spence turning 2 with a fun doughnut party! Spence loves to eat and play, so that's what we did! I enjoyed making breakfast food and the kids had fun playing with toys in the boy's rooms! Trip and and I painted the doughnut on the door, and he made a 'hot and ready' sign like at Krispy Kreme! My mom picked up 4 dozen on her way to Auburn so we had plenty to enjoy! Spence liked having everyone here, and we were so thankful our friends could make it to the party on an early Saturday morning. Our Spence is so special to us and we can't imagine our family without him. He keeps us laughing everyday!

 We are ready for the party!

 The doughnut cake!

 I served breakfast casserole muffins, strawberrries, cereal, and Conecah sausage

 I made 'bacon and egg' cookies for party favors!

(White chocolate, pretzels, and m&ms)

 Spence wasn't sure of everyone singing to him :)

We are so thankful for her!

Happy Birthday, Spence! We love you and are excited to see how you learn and grow this year!!

Goodbye Preschool, Hello Kindergarten!

        Davis 'graduated' from Grace Preschool last week. He has been there since he was one year old! We are thankful for the sweet teachers and directors who have loved on him for the past 4 years. He had a great year and learned a lot, made new friends, and is ready for Kindegarten! All of his grandparents and Aunt Andrea, who was in GA for a long weekend, were able to come to his end of the year program. He led the group into the chapel and knew all of his songs and hand motions. We are ready for a fun summer before 'real' school starts!

Football 2013

     The Auburn Tigers are headed to the SEC Championship!! What a fun fall it has been watching the games and rolling Toomers Corner. The boys have really gotten into the excitement. After last season, it has been fun to cheer and look forward to each game. Davis sat through the entire AU/UGA game and Spence attended Homecoming for his first one! Last night we all went downtown and celebrated with thousands of other fans at Toomers. I didn't grow up an Auburn fan but I sure have enjoyed getting into the spirit. We love living here!!

Cheetah party for Davis

We celebrated Davis's 5th birthday on at a local pizza place with lots of friends! Davis had a great time running around playing games and winning tickets. He has been into cheetahs a long time because they are the fastest land animal and he considers himself to be a fast runner ;). So his party and cookie cake had a cheetah theme. The goody bags had Cheetos, zebra cakes, and safari slap bracelets! These 5 years have flown by and we are so thankful for this little boy who brings so much life to our family!

                              It takes two grandmothers to deal with Spence!

                            His cookie cake and the cheetah Trip and I created!
