Disney on Ice, Lacey's B-day, J's B-day and Mothers Day!



















































This weekend was a very enjoyable one. We met Scott in Pensacola as he had gone to Mobile with Zane to see Jimmy Herring play. We went to Disney on Ice. Ivy was in awe!!! As you can tell from the picture. She would not take her eyes off the show. We then ate at McGuires and back home. We then went to Lacey's 4th birthday party. Still not believing these girls are turning 4. Then stayed for Jason's suprise birthday. Lynn, you did a great job! He was suprised. Sunday morning Scott took Me, Ivy, Scott's mom, and his sister, Aunt Em to Grayton. We ate at the Red Bar (Our favorite resturaunt!!!) and then played on the beach. We had the best time. My friends, the Spurlins, were down there and Ivy enjoyed playing with Belle and Brynne. Thank you Scott for a wonderful Mother's Day!

Friends!!!!!!


Today, Ivy was sick and Scott stayed home with her. I came home for lunch to check up on her and my best friend, Jennifer's car was in my back yard. I get out and go inside, and she meets me at the door. While holding a mop in her hand, she says I know you are not home...... The girl was cleaning my house as a suprise for mother's day! If any of you know me, cleaning my house is my life story. It's mainly my fault, cause I NEVER pick up after myself until the house is a wreck. I could not believe it. Jennifer works 2 jobs and never gets a break for herself. As unselfish as she is; she took her Friday afternoon to do something that was sooo nice for someone else. Jennifer also did this while i was in the hospital when I had Ivy so i'd come home to a clean house. How sweet, Jennifer!!! I just want to say you are the most wonderful friend and I'm glad you are my best friend. I thank God, that he gave me a friend like you. THANKS! Oh, and another thing....... This is the only pic i could find because Aunt Jen is also my photographer for events, which is another great reason I call her my best friend. WE LOVE YOU, AUNT JEN!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love being a teacher with such great holidays, Spring Break being one of them!

Well, I got a chance to unload my compact camera. I wanted to take it to the beach, but the winds were so bad, there was no way I'd chance sand all in my lens!













Lacey was at the beach, too! These two girls danced and sang to the band at Papa Roccas!




Madison came to play for a while and we were enjoying the outdoors!












um, trying to get ivy to look, but focus was on Starsong....I've got a lot to learn!







One pooped little girl! She swam 3 hours straight!



















Ivy lining up her ponies!





















Lauren Russell, love her and her hubby, Fox in the box, as Ivy says and her dear mother is the sweetest lady I know.....if she could only be my nanny!!! well, maybe baby number two she can!
Excuse the fatness!

A few pics at the condo and Tacky Jacks













Just a few pics of Ivy at the beach. I'll add my actual beach pics when I get home, I did not bring the connector for my compact camera. Ivy has had the best time. We're headed to the pool one more time before we have to go home.
