Last weekend, Grumps and Ninny came to visit! As you can see, both kids were thrilled to see them! On Saturday night, they went to Mimi and Poppy's with Grumps and Ninny. Parker is still adjusting to having to share Mimi and Poppy's with his sister...he is getting better though! Can't wait for them both to visit again!

We made our yearly trip to the zoo yesterday...once a year is plenty. We always have a fabulous time and love every minute, but like I said, once a year is plenty. We hadn't planned on going yesterday, but we weren't able to make it to Jackson like previously planned on Saturday. We had a gas leak out on the edge of our property and the man from the company didn't show up until late Saturday afternoon. So, we decided since the weather was so nice on Sunday we would just go...we knew we didn't want to wait until it was hot! So, off to Memphis we went after we picked up the kids in Clarksdale. A great time was had by all!

Happy 8 months...

We love you, Nevin Claire!! Momma, Daddy, and Parker

The Thomas Train Ride...

love this...can you see the excitement?!

Tatoo and Whistle...

so excited about the whistle

It really was like a little festival at the train station and museum. They had tatoos for the kids (and they were free)! They also had a lego station and jumping station. We avoided those, there was a huge crowd. Parker was really only interested in riding Thomas and another train that was there to ride. Can you believe that we made it out of the gift shop with only a $5 whistle?? They had so many different Thomas things and different things we had never seen. However, we were perfectly happy with our $5 whistle!

Off we go to see THOMAS!

Thomas was pulling up when we arrived...just check out that face!

On Saturday, April 10, we headed out to Birmingham to see Thomas. Parker was so excited, and it really was a great trip. Tita kept Nevin Claire so the day was all about Parker!

We celebrated Parker's 3rd birthday party at the PDS Gym on Saturday, April 3. The weather was so pretty outside, but it had rained in the night. So, we just played inside the gym. The thing I think that the kids enjoyed the most were the hula hoops. I never expected that! We enjoyed so many friends and family joining us to celebrate Parker's special day. The theme was construction and loaders. The only request from Parker was a Bob the Builder cake, so that is what we had. We appreciate everyone coming and making it a successful party!
