Happy Birthday, Graytop!

Happy Birthday
to the love of my life!

60 years old and still looking good!



One of Carrie's friends asked her, "is that your dad?"  Then she commented that he should be in a hair commercial, because his hair looks perfect.  That's why we call him graytop!

Sorry I don't have your present yet!  I do plan on getting you some biking stuff (as well as a pair of running tights so you don't have to keep borrowing mine.)


Love you, sweetie!





Caroline's Baptism

This past weekend we traveled to Nashville to attend Caroline's baptism.  It was a whirlwind trip, but we had tons of fun!

We love visiting the Funks!

The baptism was great!  Carrie made sandwiches and tons of cupcakes, which were devoured!   Tons of people came from their ward.  I was amazed.
Caroline was baptized with her best friend, Annabeth.  
 After the baptism we took the kids to Target where they could pick out anything they wanted.  Graham chose a plastic lizard (he named him Oscar) from the dollar bin.  I tried to divert him to something I thought would be more lasting, but he insisted.  I finally told him he could get something "besides" the lizard.  He made sure that if he picked something else he would still get to keep Oscar.

We had fun walking the streets of downtown Nashville.
and Carrie made dad a delicious chocolate cake for his birthday (much better than the "fancy" one I paid way too much for  for when we got home.)

Congratulations, Caroline!  We're proud of you.

New York City with the Lee Family

The Lee Family began their journey into parenthood February 2, 2014.  Lucky me - I was invited to join the fun.  And to top it off, it all happened in New York City!  

 Baby Adam thought it was pretty funny to surprise mom and dad by pretending to be a girl on the ultrasound.  (of course, he didn't fool Aunt Bethy)
 F
For a first-timer, Landon took to fatherhood like a pro!
Adam just loved getting his first real bath.  

And Ashley looks pre-pregnancy size after just a few days. 
 They make such a cute little family!

And I had tons of fun helping out.  In my spare time, I borrowed Ashley's boots and went traipsing around NYC sloshing in the slush and snow.  I LOVE NYC!

But I'm SO glad they're moving back to Texas!
