Happy Spring! The flowers are blooming, the pollen is falling, and my allergies are AWFUL! I can't complain though, everyone is happy, healthy, and doing well. My mom is coming to visit this week and Brooke is counting down the days. We have SO much planned. I am going to be after her about scrapping for sure. She has so much stuff but never finds the time to create with it so now is the time. It will be perfect since the website I design for www.transparenttouches.com is having an online crop while she is here. It will be April 8-11. There will be 12 challenges and tons of games and prizes. It's easy to join if you are not a member. Check out the website for details.

Well, tomorrow is the first day of spring and we kicked it off with a trip to the beach with Grammy Bonnie. We ended it with a wonderful dinner as well. The little ones were well behaved and now all is quiet as they dream peacefully in bed......at least until 4:00 AM : )

Tyler is growing like a weed. He can sit up now and loves crawling backwards for the most part but also sometimes forwards. He has 4 1/2 teeth and is working on the other 1 1/2. Brooke turned 4 and had an awesome party with friends and family.

Here are some recent layouts I completed!

Cutest baby boy ever:

Happy spring y'all : )

Here are a couple pics of Tyler at 6 months and Brooke on Lefty. She is so brave and wasn't the least bit afraid of riding a regular sized horse instead of tiny Peanut the pony!

Hey everyone! Hope you enjoyed your weekend. I am enjoying my day off with the little ones. Her are some pics of crazy girl on Valentine's Day and Tyler's new teeth. I also added a picture of the large snowman Papa, Daddy, and Brooke made while I was out this past Saturday. I am also posting pictures from my fabulous new crown molding/shelf that Papa built for me. It's exactly as I had pictured it :)

My breyers are so happy to be out of the box after 5+ years! And they all fit!! Guess Papa will have to build a new shelf if I get anymore : )

So we had a winter storm in the south...1"-3" of snow. WOW : ) I thought a snow storm required 2'-3' of snow! Either way we had a blast playing in the snow. This was the second time Brooke has seen snow but the first time she can remember. She started off excited but quickly realized how cold snow really is. Here are some pics from our adventure.

So, Brooke has decided she wants to start riding lessons. Grammy Marsha and I were SO excited. For her 4th birthday Grammy Marsha bought her a helmet and paddock boots and I bought her a wash bucket filled with brushes and extra goodies. We even got Grammy Bonnie and Papa Gary in on the action. They bought her a pair of riding pants! Even though it was pouring down rain during her first lesson she learned to steer Peanut with the reins. She actually steered her into all the mud puddles. Peanut wasn't so excited : ) Brooke even trotted and laughed the whole time. I think I'm in trouble. She is fearless!! Here are a couple pictures from her first lesson.

Here are a couple other pictures of Tyler in his cute hat and with his new best friend:

For February I was able to create layouts using TTT's February Kit #3. Here are the layouts and mini album I created:

And the layouts:

This layout includes a picture Brooke drew of Me, Daddy, Ty, and herself!
I love this layout because the pic is my favorite but I also listed how Brooke and Ty are COMPLETE opposites when it comes to EVERYTHING!
