Kylee is 8!

What a blessing it is to have this beautiful, kind little girl for my daughter! She truly enjoys life. Just her simple smile brings so much joy to my life and I am just thankful for her sweet loving spirit around the house with the craziness of her brothers

She really wants to get her ears pierced but just isnt quiet ready...so she got some clip ones and these fake glasses=) and a starter sewing kit!

Kylee couldn't believe she got a sewing machine. She was so excited!

People get ready for your homemade gifts=)

Forget the cupcakes...Kylee wanted pizza for her class....and sweet Madison was loved by all the classmates!

This is an off year for a party so off to dinner we go, just with the birthday girl. Her choice-Chili's!

Kylee had a fun day and it was so nice and just have a quiet evening with her!!

While we were celebrating....Tyler was at Knott's with his Honor Band!! He finally rode a roller coaster. I was lucky he went around with a parent who sent me a few pictures!!

Mother's Day, 2011!

What a wonderful morning. To start off I didn't have to get up with Gunner and let him out this morning-YIPEE!!!! Then breakfast in bed-yumyum!

I love school cards and homemade cards!

Curlers!!..................................New workout outfit and shoes!

Gunner sleeping through it all-such a cuddlier=)

I always ask Mike, "where is the stash of chocolate you are hiding from me". There never has been one until now=) He created this loving box and yes that is red tape around it. There are 3 chocolate bars, stress ball and 5 starbuck cards. We will see how long they last. For sure they will be gone when show season is here.

Then off to my parents for Fillet Mignon, shrimp, salad, potatoes and mac and cheese-YUM!! Oh and of course Rootbeer Floats!

Triple Lovin Hippies!

My MOM!

I have so much love and admiration for my mom!! I have no idea how she raised 6 kids and kept it together!! I never recall a time when she yelled or lost it (oh, maybe once)! She is just amazing, what a wonderful and perfect mother I have been blessed with!!
Happy Mother's Day!

First Annual Peyton Ladies, Tea Party!

June has wanted to plan a Tea Party for many years....so Tammy decided this was the year to get the ladies together and DO IT!!!
Pick your cup and favorite tea! Toots and Kylee setting the table.

Yummy scones, cookies, fruit and quiche!

Kylee trying her tea for the first time (she wasn't to fond of it).

We are going to do this every year in May for Mother's Day. We are all looking forward to it!!

First Beach Trip of the Year, 2011!

YAY, the time of year is here to start our beach trips every week=)

We love our family=) I like this first one because it shows our bracelets for Austin. The second one is just straighter!

Let's Go Fly a Kite!

and time to break in our REDNECK BBQ!!! Oh, and you gotta love the models!

It was a gorgeous evening and no wind, which was a nice surprise!!!

2nd Annual Mother's Day Brunch!

This is the 2nd year Mike and I have done a Mother's Brunch for our kids at church. There was a lot going on this year with Easter being later, rearranging my family room, oven breaking down on me the night before. I was an emotional wreck, but everything went smoothly the day of the brunch and all the mothers had a fabulous time=)

The kids get to serve their moms and make sure there is nothing they need!

Me and my boy!

I had great helpers....thank you Misty and Kyle for helping in the kitchen and Joanna for taking pictures!!!
