Mother's Day at the Park

Mother's Day weekend my parents were in town for James play and dad was able to take off the Sunday and stay for the whole weekend!! We decided to try and get dads family together in Columbia so we all went to church at Maury Hills and then went to the park in Columbia... it would have been nice if I could have gotten some pictures of MOTHERS but I didn't get my camera out til late and I didn't get very many pictures!!! We had probably over 50 people there and the kids had a great time!!! Jenny's family was able to be there too and my moms two brothers and their wives were able to join us as well!! It was a beautiful day and the rain held off!! Chris was not able to be there because he was driving to DC... I told him he was excused since I was not a mom yet, but that I am pretty sure he can't always leave me on Mother's DAy!! HA HA!!! The Park where we hung out

Baby Raleigh taking a nap on her MA

Baby Cooper just hanging out... this is my cousin Kristin's newest little one!!!

The little boys and the BIG boys played baseball and kickball for a long time!! Girls played some too!!!

But most the time Abigail, Mattie, an Lilly explored by themselves!!!

Or hung out with the little ones....THey even each got a stroller with one and took them on a walk... my camera died or I would have got a picture of that parade!!

But Wallace stuck to Uncle Jon the whole time... he is his little buddy!!

Peter Pan

James was in Peter Pan at his school, St. Georges, he was a crocodile and did a great job!!! The 5 year olds do this every year and it was great to see James in it this year!! Abigail did it when she was there too!!!

All dressed up...isn't he handsome!!!

A picture with his dad... my parents were able to be in town for this but I didn't get very many pictures that day!! He was so proud to show us his classroon after the play!!

Here is a video of him doing his part....he is the first one on the left....TOO CUTE!!! If you think he can dance then he got if from his aunt, but if you think he can't.... then he got it from his DAD!!!

A few more Florida Pics

This is the day we left the beach....the girls were getting ready for a ride to the airport and flying in the airplane......


Loving Sisters

Josie is so sweet and was such a good girl on the plane... but she won't ever sleep!!!

Beach Bums

Back in April, Dallas and I took the girls to FL for a little fun in the sun!! We all had so much fun and I got some great pics of the girls on the beach!! I need a better camera and I think I could do a little better!! They both love the beach!! Marshall loves to jump the waves and Josie love to dig in the sand!! Weeks leading up to going to the beach Josie was obsessed with wanting to go to the beach and dig in the sand like a crab.. those were her words!! I think there were a few nights that Dallas could not get her to sleep at home because she was so ready to go to the beach!! She is a mess! Enjoy the pictures.... I couldn't put them all on, but I did do a lot!!!!

Where has the time gone???

So really where has the time gone?? I just celebrated 5 years of working with the Wilt Family..which only means my little baby Marshall is 5 YEARS OLD!!! I seriously can NOT believe it!! She is such a joy to go play with everyday!! Marshall is the best BIG sister and plays so well with others!! She will be going to Ensworth for Kindergarten in the Fall and I know she is so ready and will do great, but it didn't keep my from tearing up the last day I dropped her off at preschool!!! I mean if its this hard with one that is not my own.. I can't imagine with my own children!! Marshall and her little sister Josie make my job not a job and make me love what I do so much!! Marshall asked the other day..."Why do you come every morning while I am eating breakfast?" It was too funny!! Dallas and I just looked at each other and laughed!!! Then the other day Fleming came home from work and Josie said something like this... JuJu you go home..daddy is here... she is getting the hang of it too!! She knows that I can go home when Mommy or Daddy get there!!
Marshall had her party on her birthday, April 18th, at Glow Galaxy and she loved it!!!

Marshall and her sister sitting in the Birthday Throne!!!

All the friends make a tunnel for the BIRTHDAY GIRL to run in!!!

Her and my nephew, James, are pretty big buds!!!

Anniversary of Engagement!!!

April 15th (Tax Day) marked one year of our engagement!!! The night we got engaged Chris and I went to eat at Chappy's On Church!! This is also where we had our first date!! We are always looking for an excuse to go eat here!! My brother and his family gave us a gift card to Chappy's for Christmas so we decided to finally go use it on this special occasion!! If any of you have not eaten here before it is REALLY good!!!

These are our 2 favorite appetizers...Fried green tomatoes and blackened shrimp....YUM YUM

And this is Chappy himself....he will always come out to see everyone!!!

Glasses you say?? Yes when I went to Arkansas for Easter I had to go to the eye doctor(yes I still go to my eye doctor at home...I have gone to him since I was 3...I can't break away!!) and I had an eye infection and he took away my contacts!!! I have not owned glasses since I was 12 so it was very hard to have to go in and pick some out!! I am glad to have them now but I had to wear them for 2 weeks straight and I about went nuts!! They will be nice at night, but I won't ever be able to use them fulltime!!!

Marshall

I love this picture... if you look closely..the store Marshalls is in the background!! That is too funny!! Marshall's new favorite place to eat is Logan's Roadhouse so Chris and took her there one night and after dinner, being the monkey she is she climbed this pole.....and not until I downloaded this picture did I see that I got the Marshalls sign in the background!!!

She also loves that there is store with her name on it!!!
