It's Been a While...Sorry!!

Hello, All! I know, I know.... it's been quite a while since I last updated our blog. I apologize... March and April have been very busy for us. I've tried to put together most of our "happenings" in one post; some of them may be a little out of date order, but.....
Enjoy (and I promise to try and do better)! :)

Gracie's First T-Ball Practice....

Gatlin had to be on the field, too!
March 19, we registered Gracie for Kindergarten.
It was very windy, so she's holding her hair from her eyes.
EASTER!!!

Gatlin only wanted to find eggs with prizes inside...

Gracie posing (of course) with her basket!
Mark had this cake made for me.....yes, I'm 30!

Dane Dylan turned 4!!!
Gracie, Dawson, & Dane...trying to pose ;) Gracie & Gatlin....apparently eating!!


Gat has perfected his "fake" cry!!
Mackenzie Johnson also had a birthday!
She's too, too cute...

Gat "took over" the Gator at Mac's party!

Gracie LOVES to fish..She actually caught at least half of these by herself!!!!

Gatlin watching Mark cut grass....he wanted outside BAD!!

Mark dressed Gatlin today.... ha

Gracie, my little angel...

Gatlin, my sweet boy....




Gracie playing dress up with her "princess" clothes..


Gat loves the camera, so he got in front of Gracie (notice background)! ha


Finally, looking and smiling....and at the same time!
Last but certainly not least... Mark's first turkey!
He's still smiling about it! ;)

Gracie's "First Wedding"

My cousin, Sally, got married today, March 1!! She asked Gracie to be her Miniature Bride in the wedding. Her dress was literally a miniature bridal gown, complete with train & veil. She did a great job (if I may brag on her myself, ha), but it was a long day for her.


First ever rollers....
Waiting at the beauty shop....
She thought we were leaving it like this... ha ha

Gatlin's Tubes :(

Our "Gat-Gat" had tubes put in his ears on Feb. 19th. I was VERY nervous, but very ready for the procedure all at the same time. He was a champ, and is doing very well.

The night before...

Playing Peek-a-Boo with his horse..a gift from Gracie from the rodeo!

Looking very sleepy....before any medicines.. ha Just after medicine...he really wanted down.. Look at this cute little gown..

We think he was calling for HELP!!


Gracie's Valentine's Trip.....

Mark and I took Gracie on a "big girl" trip to the Dixie National Rodeo on February 13. It was just the three of us, and we had a very good time. BIG THANKS to Aunt Lori for the great seats!! Joe Nichols was the entertainment and our "lil dancer/singer" really showed out!! She's also decided that she wants a white horse that will run around those barrels!! ha ha...


Cheese!!!

CHEESE again!!!
Gracie picking out her "very own" horse!
Posing the new hat.... yes, that's a crown...
yes, it lights up!!!
"On the dirt"

Afternoon @ Papaw's....

After napping from the birthday party, we spend some time out in the sunshine! It was a BEAUTIFUL day for it to be so early in February, but we really enjoyed it!!!!

Gatlin collecting rocks...
Gracie posed by her bike....
This is our Deuce-man....or Big Dawg... ;)
I caught this picture just by chance....
Papaw w/Sweet Baby & Little Man! This is what had their attention....

Uncle Marc on the tractor!!!!


Happy Birthday Austin!

Gracie's "buddy", Austin, celebrated his 4th birthday at Gym of Dreams in Brookhaven on Feb 9th. Gracie & Gatlin LOVED climbing, bouncing, and running around.
Thanks, Austin, for inviting us!!
