Long time...

It's been forever since I posted anything. So much has happened this month. I had my computer worked on since it was infected with viruses and I couldn't check any email or anything for about a week. That week sure seemed like forever! So, I'm finally catching back up with my posts.
I'll start with Isabella and what a big girl she is becoming. She's trying so hard to use a spoon and fork at meals. Of course it's the messiest meals when we let her try, but she really tries so hard to get the food on the spoon. She's also talking a lot! She's saying "oh boy", "bailey" (the neighbor's dog), "out", and mocking me when I make silly sounds. She is so much fun and she is such a good little girl.




Well, Amanda and I wanted so much for Mom to have a special, wonderful 50th Birthday party. We planned a surprise party at StoneyRiver in Nashville the week before her birthday. Some friends of her asked her to dinner and we were all there waiting for her arrival. I had butterflies in my stomach waiting for her to get there. I'd never planned a party quite that exciting and it was so much fun to do for her. She so deserves to be celebrated and loved on. I sure hope you had a wonderful birthday Mom. I love you.

These are some of the pictures we put on her slideshow of her life. So sweet! I just loved that part of her party. It was fun to look at all those pictures. Here's two of her as a baby and another one as a teenager with her and her best friend Lana. She and Lana are still the best of friends today. The last picture is a pretty recent one of her and Lana.
