Weekend Fun

We had a fun filled weekend! Friday night the four of us went bowling. That was a lot of fun! Ask Brad about the bet we made - it was great! Sunday we had a birthday party for Daddy. We made a cake and of course we had to test it. We also tried to get all of the kids to sit on the couch for a photo, and as you can see that wasn't as successful as we had hoped. Then we played hair-do and we all had ponytails on top of our heads. I love my girls!

Our Anniversary

Brad surprised me with a cruise for our 5th anniversary. He told me on January 2nd and we left on the 8th. Of course the girls had to stay home, but they tried to stow away in our suitcase. We had a wonderful, warm, and relaxing time together. Our excursion was probably my favorite part of the trip. We had the opportunity to go snorkeling which was AWESOME and we were taken on the catamaran to a private beach. Brad wanted to hide out when they called us to head back to our carnival fun ship. He insists that he could live the life of those people because all he would need is a pair of shorts and some flip-flops. It was a great get away - I just think that it is going to be really difficult for Bradlee to top this anniversary surprise!

Four Generations

Today my Grandma would be 80 years old. She was a very special lady. She was extremely talented at many different things. She was an amazing cook. She painted as a hobby and created many beautiful pictures that hang in all of our homes. AND she always thought of others first. She sent a card for every occasion. She would even send a card thanking you for the card that you sent her. I can only hope that my girls will get some of her wonderful characteristics especially, her heart.
