What have we been up to?

I want to do this post to update everyone on our happenings before my next post for Daniel's 9th birthday!

So, what have we been up to?

We have been exploring our neighborhood and really enjoying it.

There is a park about a mile away from our house that we walk to and the boys enjoy tremendously!

Our house is also about a mile and a half away from a "boat landing" on the Ochlockonee river that we like to take the boys too.  We have to get fishing poles for everyone and extra bug spray and then we will be ready for a summer on the river banks!

We have also been enjoying the newest members of our family:

Meet Lady and Katie!  They are 7 year old bassett hounds that we adopted from a local rescue.  They have been together since birth and their owner passed away last fall.  We could not bear the thought of seperating them.  They are mixing well with our family and are spoiled rotten. 

Allen and I enjoyed a belated - Valentine's date at Painting with a Twist:

We went for the Vera Bradley Breast Cancer fund raiser night and we had a great time.  Can't wait to go back! 

Allen is trying to re-break a new pony:

I think it has been more fun for the audience than Allen and Frosty.....


We have been resting:

I love the way kids sleep!  They crack me up.  I am going to have an entire photo album dedicated to my children sleeping....
And we spent a lot of time helping Connor be as comfortable and happy as possible while he was on so many meds:

This included wearing spiderman slippers for and ENTIRE weekend... to the grocery store, out to dinner, to bed, to play, everywhere.  But, sometimes you just have to do whatever helps when the little ones are miserable.


So, that is about all we have been up to.  Stay tuned for tomorrow for Daniel's birthday post!
