Snow Day!

We were so excited that it snowed here!! We really didn't think it was going to because they kept going back and forth saying yes it would and then no it wasn't going to. Well, it did and the kids had a BLAST!!! Of course, we were behind Birmingham in getting ours, so Dylan actually had a snow day and missed school on Monday!! Dylan has only played in snow once when we lived in Cartersville and this was Sutherlan's first experience with snow. She loved it!! They really had a lot of fun throwing snowballs and "building a snowman - a little one" with Ian and Bailey across the street. I really hope they enjoyed it because snow doesn't come to Macon very often. They may be teenagers when the next one hits :)



This is when it first started to snow and Sutherlan was so excited..she couldn't believe it! She ran outside jumping up and down and trying to eat the snow.































Dylan and Ian spent the day throwing snowballs while Sutherlan rolled huge snowballs in an attempt to make a snowman.

Baseball Season

Just wanted to let everyone know that baseball tryouts were this past Saturday, February 21. We should be hearing from our coach this week to know what team Dylan is on. Can't wait!! I just love watching him play sports!! So, be watching the blog for updates on Spring Baseball 2009!


Update: We made it onto the Cubs! More to come soon.....

Thank You!!

Sorry I am just posting about this, but Sutherlan wanted to say thank you to Aunt B and EE for the gift cards to Target. Last week, we had a busy week, but we were able to go over to Target and let her spend her gift cards!! She was so excited!! She just couldn't decide...she kept picking things up and saying, "yes, yes, this is what I want" and then we would walk down another aisle. She finally made her decision and we ended up getting quite a bit of stuff. She wanted to take a picture when we got home to show everyone, so here it is......



She got some Thumbelina dolls from the new Barbie movie that will be coming out in March of 2009 - "Thumbelina", Tinkerbell's House playset, a Barbie "Secret Hearts" book, a Hello Kitty Video with 5 episodes on it and finally a Hannah Montana microphone. It lights up and plays a song. She has been performing for everyone around the house!!

Thank you again to Aunt B and EE for the gift cards...she really enjoyed spending them!

Happy 4th Birthday, Sissy!!

Can you believe my baby is 4? Well, apparently she can't either. While giving her a bath Friday night, we were talking about her upcoming birthday and she said, "Am I 4?" I said, "Not yet, but you will be tomorrow". She then said, "I don't think that's such a good idea". I asked her why not and she said, "I like being 3". Then she thought about it a minute and said, "Will I be bigger when I'm 4?" and I said, "Yes" and she said, "Okay, I like being 4". She is getting so big and her vocabulary is just about to crack me up!! She is really getting to be such a "BIG GIRL" and she is so much fun to be around. She is becoming quite the little shopper too.

For her birthday, we went out to dinner on Friday night with our neighbors and had "Hello Kitty" cake. Then on Saturday, we had another birthday party to go to, but we had to celebrate her birthday with her again! After dinner Saturday night, we had cupcakes and sang "Happy Birthday" to her again and she opened her presents.

Happy 4th Birthday, Sugarbug!! We love you!!
Mommy, Daddy and Bobo

She got a wooden pizza for her kitchen from Bobo and a baby that crawls from Mommy and Daddy!



Here she is with Hudson, her other boyfriend, at his birthday party. Aren't they cute?

New Orleans 2009

We went on our yearly trip with our neighbors, The Thackers, and had a GREAT time!! Last year, it was San Francisco. This year, it was New Orleans. John had to work some of the time, but for the most part we were able to sight see and eat at some great restaurants. We ate at Herbsaint, August and the last night of our trip Emeril's. It was delicious!! We also took the streetcar up to the Garden District and to Magazine Street to do a little shopping. Of course, we hit the regulars like Cafe' Dumonde and The French Market. Here are a few pictures from our trip.
