Okay, lots of you have commented on Sarah looking like me....here's a little something to amuse you! And I'm going to do the same with Todd & Jason's photos when I gather them up!




These are some pics I snapped this afternoon.........wowo......I posted A LOT TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jason finally let me take a few snapshots of him....

Hanging out in my room...before going to dance class today....



















My friend, Regina, brought a gift by and dropped it off for Sarah today while she was napping.
When she woke up, I told her there was a gift from Miss Regina on her shelf in her room! She
was so happy and went running down the hallway to her room! I managed to catch a few photos of her opening it. Sarah LOVES Miss Regina's baby, Hannah. She talks to her babies all the time
and reads to them and calls one of them "Baby Hannah" all the time. She takes her everywhere
and she got to hold the real baby Hannah last week. Regina brought her a framed picture of the
time she held Baby Hannah! So cute! Thanks, Regina! Sarah LOVED it!

Sorry for the delay! :)

Sorry, everyone! I've been really forgetting to post for the past few days. We've been busy. Sarah & I have had some playdates and stuff going on. We are finally posting a few pics. More to come in the next 24 hours! I've been "redecorating" Sarah's room. Actually, just adding a few touches to what's already there! Also, I'll be spending the day at Jason's school on Friday and plan to get lots of cute pictures there, too! He is in the Jump Rope For Heart program on Friday. He's jumping for Sarah. He's been raising money this week to give to the American Heart Association! So sweet!
Sarah in her Shades.....Miss Hollywood, herself!

She reads stories to her "Baby Hannah" at bedtime! SO sweet!

Jason realizes it really is cold outside! He went to put his hand in the birdbath and found ICE!


My handsome little guy!!!!!!!!!!


Sarah models some tutus & ballerina outfits!


Sarah was talking on the phone to her Mimi the other night! So funny! She'll LOVE these when she's a teenager! hahahaha

Valentine's Week!

Well, it was a great Valentine's! Todd and I opted to stay home on Valentine's Night to be with the kiddos and have dinner. I made homemade spaghetti and parmesean crescent rolls. It was a good night even though Todd had to go back to work for about an hour after dinner. Earlier that day, Sarah and I went to Jason's valentine party at school and she spent the afternoon asking who's birthday it was. Cupcakes can be so confusing! haha She loved the party and had a lot of fun as did Jason. He got a lot of cute valentine's from his friends. They made the most adorable books. The teacher made a picture of each one of them and copied them onto 1 page each and when they got their cards from their friends, they glued them to the page with their picture on it and got them to sign the page. Sort of a Valentine year book. SO cute. On Friday night, Todd and I got a sitter and we went out on a date. I spent all day Friday kind of laying around because I haven't felt that great all week. HORRIBLE headache. I am feeling better today though. The weather is so bad here. Bad rain and flooding this weekend. We've been a bit homebound and I've rested a lot today. Sarah and I took a LONG nap together! It was great. Todd and Jason played games and watched t.v. all day. We ate dinner, rented some movies and plan to do nothing really exciting all weekend. Boy, we're fun, aren't we!? haha Sometimes, you just get worn down, I guess. We went to Birmingham, Alabama last weekend and spent 28 hours traveling over the course of 4 days! WHEW! I'm tired again just thinking about it! haha

Oh well! Tonight, I made hot chocolate for everyone (caffe' mocha for myself) and I did my very first "froth art" and made a heart hot chocolate for Todd! I was so excited it turned out! It's not that great, but I'm going to get better at it. Practice makes perfect!





Okay, folks..........I know you've been dying to see my "Latte' Art"............here it is!!!!
Not great yet, but I'm on my way!!!!!!!!!!!

These are photos from Jason's school party....and art club projects in the hallway at school.


I was pretty impressed by his self-portrait painting! I can't wait for him to bring it home so I can frame it and hang it up! He also made this 3-d house art. I thought it was pretty cool!






Sarah & Jason made the sweetest Valentine's for Todd...

Jason's said "Hearts are Red...Violets are blue...I cannot wait to play video games with you!"
Wednesday Night at church for Jason....

Jason & Sarah had fun opening their cards on Valentine's Morning! Bed-Heads!


Sarah's Valentine Designs... Sarah spent all afternoon making me Valentine's! She just kept cutting up pink and red paper and drawing on it and folding it up and bringing it to me. I of course, folded them ALLL up and put them in a zip lock and labeled them to keep forever! So precious!

Happy 63rd Anniversary, Grandma & Grandpa!

Today was my Grands' 63rd Wedding Anniversary! I call them my "Grands" because to me, they are "Grand"! I love seeing them together. I love how much they love each other. It's not an anniversary of just being able to stand each other for 63 years or that they just didn't believe in ever going their own ways, but a celebration of 63 years of their tried and TRUE love! Love that has withstood the test of time and continues on! They still hold hands........I think that's GRAND! They are two of the most precious people I know and I say that not only because they are mine, but because they are just ........well.........precious! Darling! Sweet!

Please watch this smilebox slideshow of them and some of the days gone by and see what true love looks like through my eyes. I see them and I hope not only for my life to be as sweet as theirs when I'm their age, but for my children and children's children to also inherit this love legacy that they have so wonderfully laid before us.

I am not saying that every single day of their life has been filled with hand holding and blowing kisses..........but there have been more days like that than not. Everyone is human and has those days when you have a spat or argument......the important thing is to not let it become EVERY day. They have done a wonderful job of that. They have strived to show us all their "imperfections" so that we know what they have is attainable to us, too.

So, on this 13th day of February, I wish THEM a HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!!!!!!!! I know...odd that it isn't on Valentine's Day.........Once I asked my Grandpa why they didn't get married on Valentine's Day and he simply said "I couldn't wait another day!"

Happy Valentine's to you all and to the two truest Valentines I know...My Grands!

Love, Sharon
