Typical day for Caden

Caden plays golf EVERY day! We have a putting area in the golf room inside (our guest room) and he plays all over the yard. If only he was old enough to go to the golf camps and play with others. He doesn't care, though. We still practice!

Corley all dressed up!

Bella brought Corley some dresses yesterday and she loved trying them all on. This was her ready for church this morning. She thought she was so cute!!! She even left the bow in her hair almost the whole way to church. That is the longest it has ever lasted. Maybe there is hope.

Update

Here is a small snapshot from our last few months. More later!

Midnight Flight

The boys participated in a 1 mile race and I completed my first 5K last night. Caden was barely awake for the beginning of his race at 9:15. WAY past his bedtime. Everyone survived and are ready for more.

Beach trip

Our short vacation was full of fun. We visited the beach, pools, Ripley's Believe It or Not Aquarium, putt putt, and zoo on the way home. A lot for three days with small kids. Now we are recuperating from our vacation...or at least Michael and I are!

We gave in!

We swore we would never own a minivan but have come to realize that having something functional is way more important than feeling cute while driving. It isn't even one of the fancy ones (you know we are too frugal for that) and we love it! If only I had been willing to test drive one last year before we bought the Pilot...

Corley is ...

*picture taken by Caden this morning at breakfast

Well, Corley is just a mess. I really hate to admit this since little girls should be cute, neat, clean, and sweet. She is always cute to me, but I know what others are thinking. SHE IS A MESS!!! She stands at the door and cries to go outside. She will crawl all around the yard, in a dress, and not pay one attention to the mud. She plays on the playground like a big kid and she will do anything that Caden does.

Other than that, she has one tooth and is walking EVERYWHERE. She is also really good on the stairs. (I let her play on them with us around - my belief is that since we have them she better learn how to use them.) I can't believe that she is almost one year old. Oh, how she has changed:)

Caden's back at school

School has started for the year and Caden is loving his new classroom. His teachers are fantastic and are so excited about the year. Their enthusiasm makes it so much easier to leave him. Did I just say that? Yes, even after three years I still cried on the first day and have teared up each day after. Why is that? I guess because he doesn't mind leaving me! I have to get his attention just to say goodbye. My little boy now wears size 10 shoes and can wear a small in the young boys department of some stores. When did this happen???

June happenings

Visiting Greenville

Uncle Steve came to visit this weekend. We went to Greenville to the Saturday Market downtown and then to the Reedy River Falls. Lots to do and see in Greenville. Caden and Corley enjoyed the grass most of all.

Preschool Spring Program

Caden's preschool held the spring program today. There were some cute little bumblebees singing...we were excited that Caden actually sang. It was nice that Mimi could visit today and so that she could witness the singing. This is the first time that he participated with the singing.

Catching up a little

We have been busy the last month. Play dates, landscaping, parties, trike-a-thon, and much more. These are a few pictures to share. I can't believe that we have been in Anderson for almost one year now. It feels like we were just house hunting. There are only 13 days of school remaining. Guess it is time to begin planning for our summer.

Supper time

I need some GIRL friends...BADLY

This is what happens when I play with Caden. A baseball cap and trains. Don't we have anything that I might like? Dolls or at least something pink?

Just a swingin'

Corley had her first swing experience today. I think Caden may have been more excited than Corley. He loves that they can swing together. I love that I have both my arms available!!!
