This is how I feel today.....

This cute little box was part of my baby shower decorations. (Thanks Alyssa)

Dear Mr. President

There are alot of words we could use to describe Brya and one of the first that comes to mind is "ACTIVIST". Once she gets a "bug in her bonnet" about something there is no stopping her. She has always been opposed to the death penalty but when she realized that hanging was still legal in some states she just had to do something.......Here is what she did.

Here is the response she got.........

I don't think she realizes that her reason for writing was not addressed in the letter but it is still cool to get a letter that "has the President's signature"!!!

Happiness Quote

I saw this in a magazine (don't know who wrote it though) and liked it. Maybe I'll have to get some help from Upper Case Living and put it up on the wall somewhere.......

"We tend to seek for happiness, when happiness is actually a choice."

Nolan lost a tooth!!

Nolan lost his first tooth yesterday. It had been barely hanging on all day and when we were at his music class he all of a sudden says "My tooth is gone." We looked around for it but I think it probably got swallowed. Oh well......the tooth fairy got a nice note and Nolan got a nice handful of change.

Birthday Girl

Thea celebrated her 4th birthday this week. The celebration included.....

......a birthday playdate with a special friend, poofy princess skirts,

birthday cupcakes,

"mmmm....which one do I want"

and playing dress up.

Thea's school also had a little ceremony for turning 4.

"The earth (globe) moves around the sun (candle) tra-la-la". She walks around the sun one time for each year.

No birthday is complete without a treasure chest full of princess attire.

The long awaited booster seat. Now she can buckle herself in....yeah for Mommy!!

Happy Birthday my sweet not-so-little-anymore girl!!

First Snow!!!

We got our first snow today!!! Brya and Nolan had all their gear on and were outside before 8 o'clock. For me.......the count down to spring begins!

Not enough for a snowman so we had a snowface.

Poor Thea is sick so she had to stay inside. She was actually the first to see the snow because she was up at 4am with a coughing fit. Troy took her outside to try to help with the cough. She had to wake me up to tell me about the snow.

They played happy until the bus came.
