March - where did you go?

So I fell off the blog wagon...

March was busy - which is probably why.  We celebrated Logan's 6th birthday, kicked off baseball, had Spring Break, and completed an entire year without my Mom....so it's been a whirlwind of emotions and life has just expoloded.

Logan celebrated GO Texan Day with his Kindergarten class....we went for the Bull Rider look.

 While Caden enjoyed a sleepover at a friends - these two had their own sleepover with Daddy in the living room!

 So in love...

 Presley was able to attend her great friend Addy's 4th birthday party - with Belle and Beast making a surprise appearance.  Presley was on cloud 9 and had the best time....

 Birthday Girl Addy and Presley

 The boys were stoked that Beast was there.

 Over spring break we went to the Houston Livestock Show with some friends....it was not the best experience solely b/c of my own stupidity but we had fun with our friends which is all that matters (Don't tell Caden i misplaced $50 worth of carnival tickets and thought they were lost only to find them when we got home)

 Logan & Celia

 Presley & Jayce

 And then somebody turned 6....mr cool giving us a rock show...

 He was SO Excited he woke up before 6 to enjoy the day.  We got donuts and he wore his hat from school!

 We celebrated his birthday at the neighborhood park with lots of friends.

Special Shot out to our very special friend Kyle for being a sport so that Logan's favorite Star Wars character could surprise him with a Lightsaber fight at his birthday party!

 Happy Birthday, Logan!

 Miss P had ballet

 I managed to get one picture of Caden in baseball and none of Logan.

For April, I plan to do better!  :)

This & That

 Logan celebrated 100 days at school...he wanted to decorate with footballs but we could only find 25, so we had to add 75 stars...I told him he was a star football player and he was okay with that.

 Presley got invited to her first princess dress up party.  She was very emotional though because she doesn't like her Ariel dress but of course she wanted to be ariel (Ariels dress is itchy)...so mommy improvised and reminded her of when Ariel marries Eric she is wearing a white dress -- we found this dress in her trunk and bingo we had a winner....so introducing, Presley as Ariel, The Bride.

 Logan, the coolest kid I know...

 Celia (birthday girl from above mentioned party), also daughter of very good friends of Heath and mine....slept over one night -- the girls had a BLAST!

Nick has taken Daisy for a while and my Dad Hank....to give them a better quality of life and us a much needed break...with two full time jobs, Grad school, Church activities, school and baseball....the dogs were being neglected.  It was bitter sweet day for us - we met at Mom's grave site, Daisy's first visit....it was neat seeing her explore it.  I know she misses her mama too.

 Beautiful stone my aunt put at my moms feet...

 With Mama & Papa

 This picture is very meaningful, captures the age of my boys when we began mourning the loss of my mom as well as continue to mourn Mama & Papa.  Generations -- life is so short.  I can't believe that Mama died when I was 8 months pregnant with Caden....and Papa when I was 8 months pregnant with Presley.

On the way to the cemetery - Logan said, Mom please don't cry.  I held it together.  The boys planted seeds around mom - they are excited to see if they grow.  We also planted a hibiscus.  I'm not a fan of all the "fake" flowers at a cemetery but I guess it's better than having dead flowers there.

Baseball is in full force - I'll update pictures soon....Caden has come back FULL FORCE this year and we are very excited!
