Butt's Mill Farm

Monday we went to Butt's Mill Farm for a Birthday Party. It was Ashley's (the little girl in the top right picture) 6th Birthday, and was so much fun. Will has decided that's where he wants to have his party. There is so much to do there....they have about 5 different playgrounds, go-cart's, pony rides, putt-putt, and Will's favorite---the bull riding. We might be getting a season pass so we can make many visits there this spring and summer!
Tomorrow we are headed to Dothan to go see Jared's Grandmother. Please say a special prayer for her, she has been really weak and not feeling to good lately.

Six Months....Time Flies

"Prayer for My Daughter's Purpose and Future"

Lord, I pray that Caroline will find her identity in You. Help her to view herself as Your instrument and to know without a doubt that in You she is complete. Give her a clear vision for her life when setting goals for the future and a sense of purpose about what You've called her to do. Help her to see herself as You do--from her future and not from her past. Teach her to look to You as her hope for the future. May her commitment to being who You created her to be enable her to grow daily in confidence and Holy Spirit boldness.

"I know the plans I have for you," says the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11

As much as I would like to say that I came up with that prayer all on my own, it really came from the book in the picture above. It came from her Daddy for Valentine's Day and it is wonderful. Will got one too and they both have the most precious prayers in them.

Caroline....You were 6 months old on Friday. I cannot believe how fast time has flown by, you are half way to a year! It is going by way to fast. You are the sweetest little girl, Nana and Papa were here this weekend and said they did not hear you cry one single time. A few weeks ago you started sitting up on your own, and love to sit on the floor and play with your toys. You love your bath time with your BIG BUBBA every night. You are not liking your cereal anymore and will not eat any vegetables. Although, you seem very interested in our food when we are eating. I am trying to switch you over to formula, but you are not liking that either. Maybe next month!! You are sleeping much better now...one night a few weeks ago I let you cry it out. You screamed for one hour straight and since that night you have slept all night long. (except for a couple of times just crying out!) I wish I could freeze time and just keep you the way you are right now, but I know that can't happen. I Love you more and more everyday!!

Our Friday Morning......

This is what Will has been doing this morning.....and since I've been labeling this picture, he's even dragged more stuff out. You'll have to click on the picture above to see what everything is. What an imagination he has, pretty self entertaining!! Now I have to go help him clean it all so Nana and Papa won't see this big mess when they get here!

This is what Caroline did for probably 20 minutes this morning while I cleaned her room. Do you see the difference between the two???

Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's to me from my sweet son!! Today at Will's school they treated there mama's to a luncheon. They served us spaghetti and meatballs; salad with strawberry's, walnuts, and a vinaigrette dressing; bread with an olive oil dipping sauce; and red velvet cake. I started eating before I thought about taking a picture of my plate. The little kido's really enjoyed serving us and we enjoyed it too! I know I've said it a million times, but I just love his school and his wonderful teacher's.

Will and his best buddy Cullen waiting patiently for their mama's!

Thanks Mrs. Stone, she knows exactly what little boys want!

Will and his little Valentine.....
