Two Birthday Girls

A couple of weeks ago, Jackson went to TWO birthday parties in one day!

 First, we went to Abbey's 1st birthday party. We had such fun!

 We gave her a "My Pretty Lamp" and it was so cute to see her watch it light up.

 Ezra and Jackson are such good buddies!

 In between the parties, we stopped at Crystal Bridges restaurant, "Eleven," for lunch. It was so good. Oh, I love him! 

 My boys are so handsome!

 Russell and I shared this heart shaped shortbread cookie for dessert.

 Jackson Randolph is such a sweet baby boy!

 Harper's 1st birthday party was next. We loved seeing everyone there.

 Susan and Susan holding Jackson and Harper. So cute!

It was so cute watching Harper open gifts as well. Thanks for the fun, Abbey and Harper! :)

When we got home, Jackson took a long nap. Going to these birthday parties was a big reminder that he will have a birthday party in a few short months...his FIRST birthday. I am in denial...just a tad! :) He will always be my baby, no matter what age.

 

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7

Ringing in 2011

It's 1-1-11, y'all! Happy New Year! Let's celebrate! You know, one of my resolutions is so simple- it is celebrating the simple things in life. That's my resolution and I'm sticking to it. Life's too short. Well on to celebrating.....
Today was the Tournament of Roses Parade. Paula Deen was the Grand Marshal. She looked so cute riding in that car with her husband, Michael.
Here's how we celebrated.
A New Year's Party, of course! We had Lauren with us and entertained her with a very small "party."

Here we are on New Year's Eve! Bye Bye 2010!

Me and my New Year's Sweetie!

Belle was celebrating too! Happy New Year!

We love Welch's sparkling grape juice. Yum.

She was so excited about 2011!
I wish y'all lots of love, joy, peace and happiness this 2011. May God Bless Each of You!

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Hebrews 13:8

A Pampered Chef Party

Tuesday night, I went to a Pampered Chef party at my sweet friend, Bekah's house. Oh, I just love Pampered Chef! Here we are with her sweet girl, Shelby!

Shelby and her sweet Mommy!


Shelby loved to read that night! We had such a fun time. I hope ya'll have had a great week! I'll update my blog again soon!

Guard your heart above all else, for it is the wellspring of life. Proverbs 4:23

A Halloween Party

Boo to You! Last night Russell and I and Russell's parents attended a Halloween party. We had so much fun. Costumes were required so we had fun choosing costumes for it! Beware, ya'll may not recognize my husband in this picture! HA! Here we are before the party! I was a 50's girl and Russell was the character Sawyer, from Lost. Im thankful that I didn't have a wig on last night! HA!
Uh Oh! Did we make a wrong turn?!?!

The Lamkin family went all out with this party. There were decorations GALORE!

Here I am in my poodle skirt!

OOOOooooo! A scary coffin....

Pond decorated with lights

How pretty!

More decor

Me and Carolyn, one of the hostesses. She is too sweet!

All 4 of us at the party! Ricky was a scarecrow, Jackie was a pumpkin.

Me and Julie! She looked so different because she really has blonde hair! No blue face either! HA!

The bathroom was even decorated!

We had a lot of fun. Happy Halloween!
