A Very Berry Birthday Bash!




Mady was super surprised by her birthday gift - her brand new Barbie Jeep!! It even has a radio with songs that play on it. I think she was in such utter shock when she first saw it because she wasn't sure how to react. Of course I wish the weather would have been nice like it was last weekend, but we just bundled up the kids and went out to enjoy her new ride.











Mady has been wanting a strawberry birthday party for months now and so I have been planning like crazy trying to find party ideas. Thanks to my new found love, Pinterest I was able to make some delicious treats. Of course each treat had something to do with strawberries and/or sweets. Thanks to Aunt Anita who made Mady's Strawberry Shortcake birthday cake for us. Mady was so excited and woke up that morning wanting to eat it for breakfast. LOL!




It's hard to believe that my little girl has now turned 3! It seems like yesterday we were just bringing her home from the hospital. If only I could turn back the hands of time and she'd be a baby again. If I think about it long enough, my uterus starts to ache for another one. LOL! Well enough of that and on to the birthday bash. :)

As always each year both Christmas Eve and Christmas day were busy but filled with fun! I am loving being off with my family and it is spoiling me having this time with them. I look at how big both Dawson and Mady are and it makes me want to turn back the hands of time. I am so thankful and feel so blessed right now in my life!

Thanksgiving Visit w' Friends





I am so very thankful we were able to meet up with some of our best buds who we've not seen in a long time. It was great to see all the kids together and catch up over the weekend. Hoping we can do it again soon! :) Miss not having all my girls in town!

Gamecocks beat Clemson!! Cockadoodledo! :)


The kids were so excited this past weekend to watch our Gamecocks play. We were all even more excited to watch them win the state title against Clemson. :) I just love getting my babies all dressed up in Gamecock gear!

Halloween



Okay so yes I'm ashamed to say I have been slack in the blogging department with my own family. :( Here's some pics from Halloween. We had such a blast going over to the grandparents houses and watching Channel 146 perform at a local church.

Fun At The Fair!










We all had a blast at the SC State Fair this year with Mimi, Papa, Uncle Stevie, Tucker, Riley and Ragen! I was so impressed with Dawson riding so many rides this year. Madalynn is finally old enough now to enjoy them too and boy did she ever!! She is not afraid of anything. LOL!! From rides, to games, to petting farm animals, the kids had such a great time and didn't want to leave. The best part for Mommy is always enjoying the elephant ears - YUMMY!!! :)
