Boys at Play

Davis and Jackson are playing in the 2 & 3 years-old room while Amber and Dustin are having their TLC group and meal.

Jackson is still having his snack from his cup.  Every once in a while he puts another animal cracker in his mouth and then carries on.

They have fun with all the trucks, and toys there.

Sweet little boys.

Davis will have that tow truck figured out before he leaves.

Still finishing them up!

Dramma’s House

Lunch at Grandma’s house while a realtor is showing Amber’s house.

A little bit of mood music . . . if you like plunk, plunk, plink.

I do like seeing the kids sit at the piano and enjoying it. You never know what will inspire them to want to learn how to play it. Jackson is really working on those right hand keys.

Davis is usually more interested in how things work, he’s always inspecting things from all angles.

It’s amazing they’ve sat on the bench long enough to get 6 or 7 pictures.

Don’t you just love it!!!

Early Spring 2012

North Carolina, along with with rest of the country,  has had a very mild winter.  I’m certainly not complaining because I have really enjoyed it.

Everything is blooming so early with the warmer weather.

These are some of the bulbs I bought at Costco last Fall and planted in pots and in the ground.

The weather hasn’t been too hot so the blooms have lasted for a while.

My impatiens even bloomed inside the house.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVIS & JACKSON

Dustin, Amber, Abby, Davis, Jackson and I went to Texas Roadhouse (one of our favorite places to eat) to celebrate the boys two-year old Birthday.  

IMG_3142

Chicken nuggets, french fries, mac and cheese was the birthday fare for the kids.  

IMG_3143

Jackson is becoming quite the clown, he always has some kind of face he makes.  And it doesn’t help that Abby laughs at him, then they get each other going.

This is mac and cheese face.

IMG_3146

Every 15 minutes or so some of the wait staff come together and do a little line dancing through the aisles.

IMG_3147

Abby was trying to see them on the other side.

IMG_3148

These 2 girls had everybody singing Happy Birthday to the boys.

They thought it was fun climbing on the gifts.

The Cates sent them a barbeque with utensils and . . .

. . . a LARGE box of plastic food.  Oh boy!!!

The birthday cupcakes!  They were some of the best cupcakes I have ever eaten, the icing was to die for.
