Addison's 3rd Birthday Party!

My big girl, Addie, will be 3 this Saturday, May 23rd. I can't believe it!!! She is so much fun - so funny and entertaining. She is even "trying" to tell jokes. She can remember everything and will repeat something you said 4 days ago word for word! It has been so funny realizing our mannerisms and sayings through the mouth and hands of a 3 year-old! So many times we say I don't know where she gets that and soon we will catch ourselves saying or doing it unconciously. One of her favorite sayings when Lee starts fussing is "Our daddy has lost his mind!" She is definitely into asking "Why?" to every comment you make! And, can read both of her Fancy Nancy books purely through memorization! Anyway, we had her party last Sunday at Blue Ribbon Riding Academy in Canton. She LOVES horses (we drive a certain route on the way to and from school to see lots of horses)! They had an absolute blast and I got attacked Monday at daycare by excited little girls who loved riding the horses! They are definitely a giggly group! Thanks to everyone that made the trip; we really appreciate you being a part of her big day! Also, thanks for all the help from running my cameras, walking along with little cowgirls & cowboys, taking care of Maggie, etc.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ADDISON - YOU MAKE LIFE MORE AND MORE FUN EACH AND EVERY DAY! WE LOOK FORWARD TO MANY MORE CELEBRATIONS!

Fun-filled Weekend!

We have had a busy, busy weekend and currently both girls are asleep and we are just spending a lazy Sunday afternoon inside!


Kate, Sloan, Molly, Meg and Jason all came in Friday night and we enjoyed some scrumptious burgers at Mugshots (thanks Meg & Jason) before hangin' out at home! Morgan graduated from Wesley Biblical Seminary with her Masters of Divinity Saturday morning at 9:30 so we were all up and going REAL early. I have to brag because we were all dressed and arrived at graduation by 9:00! Morgan gave the student's appreciation speech to the faculty and did an amazing job. We are all so very proud of you. You have already touched so many lives and will continue to reach many others - she also received the compassionate minister award (not sure if that is the exact title). After graduation, Marion Hall and Stephanie hosted a celebration luncheon at their house in Madison and everything was delicious. Meg and Jason had to get back home, and Nana decided to spend Saturday night with us. Morgan, Haydn, Anne (Adams) and Marnie came out and we enjoyed a fun night catching up on the back porch (the weather was great). It is so quiet at the house right now and we are a little sad! Sloan and Molly are so good to play and entertain the girls and are such big helpers! Thanks for coming and we can't wait to see y'all again soon!

The Graduate!All of Morgan's family (well, most of them!)
The proud husband - I don't know what these two are going to do now that neither of them will be in school - well, that is, at least until Mary Milton gets here!

The girls enjoyed icing our strawberry cupcakes and it was even more fun to watch!
The BEST part...and one of my favorite pics!
