Happy 4th!

Our calendar on our refrigerator looks like this:



Isn't Grace's little hand, just the sweetest!? I hope to go through and photograph this whole calendar to share on the blog soon. Her handprint is showcased each month and it was decorated with a theme/holiday from that particular month!

I'll be making these easy and festive treats tonight:


The recipe for them and a fun patriotic drink is over on She {Hearts} It today!

Movin' on Up!

Grace got a new carset a couple of weeks ago and today I've posted a review on She {hearts} It.

Miss Grace

I'm going to have to get a video of Grace singing "HER" song. It is too cute!

Say What?

As soon as Grace says, "Mommy do you want to see my _____ _______?" My ears perked up because I thought she was saying something she shouldn't have been. So I scrambled to my phone to record her until I could figure out what she was saying. What are your thoughts?



So my thoughts were that she was saying "@$$-kicking". Most everyone else that has already seen the video thought the same, except Scott who thought she was saying "house keeping". :) Thankfully it was only "ice skating"!

(sorry the video is sideways!)

Snuggle

One of Grace's favorite things to do is snuggle. :)

She gets in the bed with Scott and I in the mornings if she's up before us and says, "Let's Snuggle".
She has time with her Daddy just before bed and they usually snuggle.
If she wakes up in the middle of the night and I go and get in the bed with her she throws her arm around my neck and say, "Mommy I love snuggling with you."



She makes my heart happy!

Mothers Day

On Mother's Day we went to church with Scott's family at his Nanny's church.

After church we had lunch at my parents. Nanny and Papa came from Williamston, Jackie and David came from Manteo, even Jacquelyn and her boyfriend, Tyler came from Raleigh!

We played cornhole...

Nanny with her daughters: Jackie & Mom, and their daughers, Jacquelyn & me! :)

Hope everyone had a great Mother's Day!

Mothers Day Tea

Graces school hosted a Mothers Day tea the Thursday before Mothers Day. The kids brought a stuffed animal to school with them that day and we measured them, and did a check-up on them to see how much they were loved. We had snacks and the kids sang songs for us. They gave us two gifts: a hand print key chain and a card that stretches out really long with their hands on each end so whenever we need a hug we can just wrap it around us! :)
