Finally..another post

Well, I just realized that I have been lazy and have not posted much. I haven't even posted pictures of Emma's party!!!! Emma had a blast at her birthday party. We hosted it at Pump It Up and all of her cousins were there along with some friends from school.


I thought I would share this photo of her first birthday just for fun! She had a 104 fever on her first birthday but still managed to get into the cake!

Emma and Cousin Josh getting ready to go into the jump area.


Cousin Carter having a BLAST!!!! I love his big boy haircut!

No fear Drew!!! This 18 month old had no problem going down the big boy slide all by himself.


After the party, Josh & Emma took the motorcycle out for a spin. Doesn't Josh look like one bad biker dude?


Since the birthday party, we have been on the go. Our house is still undergoing some construction. Phase I is ALMOST complete!!! The wood floors are down and they look amazing. Mike is finishing the trim work. The next project will be to gut the kitchen! Hopefully this will all take place before June!!!

At the beginning of March, my brother-in-law Brian completed his first marathon in Ft. Worth. It was cold and VERY windy!!!! He did a great job and it was a blast getting to race from spot to spot to see him. That same weekend, Mike's parents treated everyone to a Dallas Star's game. They rented out a box for us and some of their friends. It was incredible!!!!

This past weekend, Emma and I went to see my folks and sister. Emma got to play with her cousins. For some reason, Emma and Josh are going through a phase of fighting and arguing as soon as they see each other! I got so mad when I took them to Walmart, that I marched them back out to the car and told them not to say A WORD the entire way home! It actually worked, they didn't say a word. As soon as we got back to the house and they started playing the arguing began again. I think I am getting a taste of what my parents went through with my sister and I!!! Drew on the other hand just wants to do whatever the big kids are doing. The entire time we were visiting he would run around the house saying "Emma".

I hope to post some of the updated house photos soon!!!
