What a Weekend

It was a jam packed weekend! Corbin had his last T-Ball game Saturday. He loves playing. His coach calls him "Smiley"! After his game they did a small team party with cupcakes. Corbin was so excited to get his 2nd trophey ever!!! Later that afternoon we went here! How beautiful is this (below)?? This house is amazing. It is straight out of a magazine. You would think you were standing in an HGTV house. I wish it were mine, but it's not, it's my friend Stefanie's - darn!

We ALL discovered our new favorite chip! These are sooo good. You've got to try them!

This is what I made - Shrimp Burgers with Sweet and Tangy Tarter Sauce! Delicious! If I don't say so myself.

Stef made this. Also Delicious! Hicama Slaw! Yum, Yum! We ate like champs!

Stef's husband, Chad, did this! A man and his chainsaw - too funny!

It was worth it! We had a great fire with yummy s'mores!

The guys threw the kids around in the pool all afternoon. This is Lucy flying in the air!

It was a great day!

Life's a Beach!

This is why living in Florida is great. Life can't get much better than a beautiful day spent with family and friends at the beach!

Hope your days are sunny!

Never Say Never

Have yall ever said, "oh, I would NEVER"??? Yeah, I am guilty of that! I will vow to NEVER do something and then sure enough, I'll change my mind. We'll that was the case with the Minivan. I have been a loyal SUV driving since I can remember. Always saying that I would NEVER own a minivan...well, I am now a PROUD owner of a minivan!!! And yes, I did say PROUD! Look. I loved my Yukon XL, but times are different now. It's time downsize (our monthly payment that is). Believe it or not we are all really liking "The Mini" as we call her. We are all becoming quite found of her. Landon was a little worried about what "The Mini" was going to do for his reputation. He was shocked to learn that is WAY cooler than he thought. We've had her for about 2 weeks now and we feel like she is part of the family now! We think she's a keeper! On to other things more important than The Mini". Landon tried out of the schools News Crew about a week ago. He was really excited about it. There were only 13 positions available and more than 35 kids tried out for it. Iwas a tad bit worried that he wasn't going to make it. We talked about the odds and he said he'd be OK if he didn't make. Well, Monday morning they announced the new members of the crew and he made it!!! He was sooooo excited! It is quite a big responsibility. He has to get to school about 45 minutes early and he will miss about 10-15 mins. of class time. He was so hyped last night because this morning was his first day on the job. He set his alarm clock and got ready so super fast - I was very impressed! Normally, for those that don't know us well - we are NEVER on time! We seem to always be a step behind. I think this will be really good for Landon. He is taking this very seriously. This News Crew thing is right up his ally. He is always directing shows and plays and X-Games in the cul-de-sac. His teacher told me that she heard he did really well; he took his time and was very charasmatic in his audition! The rest of the school year will be practice for the new kids, but next year will be the real deal. I'm a proud moma!

Welcome!

I just want everyone to know my Cuz gave birth to her first precious baby yesterday, April 30th, in the wee early hours. He is beautiful...I think he looks like his daddy! I cannot wait to meet him. I hate they live in B'ham. Go here to see sweet Collier Nash!

This week has been super busycrazy!! I've been here and here with the boys on school fieldtrips plus Emmie's been to swim lessons everyday...let's just say I'm pooped! The other day Emmie came around the corner sporting her thumb and the changing pad. She dragged that thing around with her for a good while. It was so funny!
