Summer Begins! May 2012

I am having the best time looking back over the year reminiscing on each moment and memory that our family has created!  By the number of pictures, May was not as busy as April but I managed to pull out the camera to record some special moments throughout the month.  May is always an exciting time of the year.  Warmer weather, Summer begins, and it is almost the end of the school year.


 We pulled out Landon's slip and slide that he got for Easter and added some soap and water for some outside fun.  Landon always has fun with Savannah and Kelly.  
 Landon getting ready for his big slide.
 Love this picture of Savannah just being a Happy Girl!
 Savannah's Birthday party at Viquest.  Those little girls were singing Happy Birthday with all that they had. 
 Landon at Savannah's Birthday party!

                   Landon was on the All Pro Hydraulics team in 2012.  This is him ready to hit.                       

And this is the Hit!  

 The ballgame is not enough to hold Luke's attention and I am so glad that Aunt Michelle thought about bringing this truck for Luke
 Relay for Life at Farmville Central with his buddies Savannah and Boman.  
 Bobby teaching Addison and Luke how to tie a knot on the fishing pole.  They sure look like they are taking it all in!
Luke trying to put on Savannah's flip flops.  He is such a cutie!

Im So Far Behind But I Gotta Start Somewhere!! (April 2012)

Tonight was the first time in over a year that I can remember both of my kids being in the bed before 8 and I have been sitting here pondering all of the things that I could be doing to "catch up!"  Things like cleaning my house, washing clothes, folding clothes, putting up clothes, getting ready for tomorrow, and the list could go on and on. Basically all those task that seem to consume your life day in and day out leaving so little time for the important things in life.  There simply isn't enough time in a 24 hour period to accomplish all of those things that you have planned, but, I do try my best!  So instead of tackling all or any of those tasks that sit before me I decided to sit down and attempt to take a stab at catching you up on our world over the past 14 months.  At this point Im not exactly sure how I am going to pack it all in, but I am going to try my best.

April 2012:  This is going to be so much fun going through pictures over the past year!  I remember this like it was yesterday!  We had to get Adam to tape a piece of wood on the gas pedal so that Luke and Addison could reach.  I will have to say that their driving skills were a little off but you should see them now!  

Get ready because you are going to a lot of these two kids!  They are best friends and I love them both sooooo much!  

Uncle Adam showing Addison and Luke how his tobacco plants grow in the green house.  They were amazed!
 Baby Broughton brewing inside (Im so behind because he is walking now!)
This is one of my favorite pictures of my family in front of Red Oak Church's cross at Easter.  How Great is our Almighty God!
 Luke being all boy in is Sunday best!
 We love to visit the strawberry patch on 903 every year.  This is Luke taking a look at one of the rabbits on the farm.  
 MMMM.....Pizza!! One of Luke's favorite!
 Pool in April??  Yes it was WAY too cold to be getting into the pool but Landon had to figure that on his own.  
 Luke on the other had just wanted to test the waters with his hand!
 Love this picture
 Landon lost his first tooth in April 2012.  He was sooo proud!
 Easter egg hunt in Winterville with over 10,000 eggs spread all over the field.  
 Landon with a full basket of eggs.  He found 1 of the 10 prize eggs for the second year in the row.  Now that is some favor!
 Family fishing day.  Love this picture of Luke patiently waiting for the big bite!
 Daddy says thumbs up to Luke catching a fish!

 Most Outstanding Award for this smart boy!  Proud Mama and Daddy

So excited I made it through April of 2012.  Now on to May 2012 for my next post!
