This morning I woke up to a sweet birthday card from my hubby. At the bottom of the card he gave me a hint "The name of my 1st dog." to find out my gift. I had no idea so I asked if I could use my resources, he agreed. So, I texted my sister in laws and found out the name was Rascal. At this point I got really excited because I was hoping that meant he had bought me tickets to see Rascal Flatts. He was on a walk so as soon as he got back I followed him into our bedroom and just as I am about to ask if we were going to the concert I step on one of the boys cars, and like the cartoons end up w/both feet in the air and land on my rear. I then proceed to laugh/cry because it really hurt but was so funny too. My sweet 3 yr old came up, sat on me and said, "you are ok mommy." I look up to my hubby and he hands me floor tickets to see Rascal Flatts in July!! Not exactly how I pictured finding out but that's how it goes. My foot still does hurt but at least I can walk on it. I did wish that someone would have recorded it because I am sure it was a sight to see.
Thanks to my wonderful hubby for the tickets and thanks to my wonderful kids for their beautiful card! I am so blessed to have such a wonderful family!!

New iphone....kinda

I got a new iphone well except it isn't a phone anymore and really it is just new to me. My hubby has waited 3 yrs to upgrade his iphone and finally decided it was time. He had been jealous of his brother in law's new iphone last year but couldn't justify the money at that time. This year he was ready for the new and improved iphone. I'm pretty sure I have lost my hubby for a few days as he becomes enthralled with his new toy/tool. He preordered it and was lucky enough to get in right before they cut off the delivery date from the 24th until the 2nd. Then he received an email saying they were going to actually deliver it on the 23 which just made his day. So, last night as he was getting his new iphone set up he was clearing his old iphone for me to have. Now I have an iphone w/o the phone so I guess it is more like an itouch but older. I'm happy, he is happy so it works for us :)
Anyone else getting a new iphone?? or old iphone ;) And for those who have an iphone pass along your favorite apps so I can check them out!

Birthday Bash
Although we still have another birthday celebration he has made out pretty well this year. The weekend started off with a movie. Lil man loves Toy Story and it worked out so well that Toy Story 3 came out the day before his bday. The movie is very cute and the whole family enjoyed it. I will admit I did get a lil teary eyed at the end. After the movie it was his pick for dinner. Now the girls pick Texas Roadhouse guess what lil man picks....yep, McDonalds :) So, we headed over to McDonalds for dinner.
Saturday morning he woke up to his bday gift from us. A trike! I'm pretty sure that the bell on the trike is his favorite part. He is excited that now when we go on walks he can ride his trike like his sisters ride their bikes and not have to ride in the stroller anymore. The morning was spent relaxing and then it was time for the bday party.
Lil man and his cousin were blessed to have several friends come to celebrate with them. There was moonwalks, sprinklers, slip n slide, hot dogs, and cupcakes. Although lil man turned out to be more of a spectator not wanting to do much he said he had fun so that is all that matters. I know his friends had fun too from all the pics. The slip n slide was definitely the hit of the party on that very hot day.
We finished the weekend with some family celebrations and the last celebration will be this Sunday. I can't believe that my lil man is 3?! Where does the time go? It seems like just yesterday we were bringing him home. Now he is about to start preschool!
Here are a few pics from the weekend.

3?!
He is 3! Really?? I can't believe my lil man is already 3 yrs old. Today we are having a joint bday party with his cousin who turns 4 in a couple days. He has changed so much in the past few years I can't wait to see what God has in store for this boy.
I'll update on all the party fun later!
Happy Birthday Lil Man!!

Picture Update!
Here are some pics of the trip and camp!

Update post
Well, it's been a while and hopefully I still have readers. I am going to try and be better at updating. The end of May came and went and now it's June and I don't know where the time went.
To start off with I had a wonderful Girls weekend with my dear friend. It was a great time of relaxing on the beach. I actually had time to read a book! I like reading but never seem to find the time so it was a nice treat. The weather was absolutely beautiful and couldn't have asked for a better weekend. Not only did we lay on the beach but we were able to go see a sea turtle hospital (I love turtles), shop, see a chick flick and eat great food! It was an awesome weekend and although we hadn't seen each other in 4 1/2 yrs our friendship hadn't changed. My youngest daughter asked if there was awkward silence any, I said absolutely not!
After I got back from my trip it was time for the end of the school year and family camp. I am now the mother of a Senior and 7th grader! I'm not sure where the time went but they are growing up fast. Everyone had a great time at family camp this year except lil guy who wasn't feeling well. Him and I had a lot of time in the lodge and one night I missed out on visiting because we both went to sleep at 830p. Overall though it was a great time. Lil man rode his first horse and did canoeing again w/Daddy. We didn't see much of our youngest daughter she was off w/her friends having fun swimming, canoeing and falling in the creek ;) She unfortunately found out that if you are crossing a creek don't hold your camera.
Now we have started our busy summer schedule. Our oldest is the busiest w/camps, tennis lessons, a job, and a college class. Our youngest daughter is going to be taking tennis lessons, has been at basketball camp this week and will be going to church camp in July. Lil man is going to start swimming lessons next week and is going to be turning 3 next week. I'm not sure how that happened. And lil guy is now a crawler so he is on the move all the time.
I will add pics later but wanted to post an update and will try and stay up to date more :) Enjoy!!
