First Day of First Grade!!


Well, it is official! McKenna is in first grade! She started on Monday! However, it was very quiet when we got home from taking her to school!

Two comments:


From McKenna~ "Mom, did you miss all of my questions while I was at school?"

And later...
Me~ "So, it sounds like you had a good day."

McKenna~ "It wasn't just good, it was amazing!"


So, its just me and Caris until school starts for her next week. She has been wanting me to play...alot. Like tea party, beauty salon, dance recital...etc! Today she came into the living room with the saddest face. When I asked what was wrong, she said "I miss Sissy." Awwww!!

We are planning on tiling our bathroom this weekend~sounds like a fun way to spend the holiday!


Have a great day!

My Baby is Four!


It's hard to believe that four years ago today, Caris was born. It seems like yesterday! Caris is sweet, dramatic, sensitive, funny and a cuddler. Does anyone in the world love Disney Princesses as much as Caris? It would be hard to believe! She loves to dance and watch herself in the mirror. And she loves her big sister! She has been excited for this birthday for weeks now. But one of the first things she said was-"after I'm four, I'm gonna be five!" So we will celebrate her birth today and all of the blessings that she brings to our lives. I know God has big plans for her and I can't wait to watch as each day as she continues to grow! I love you my Bug!!!
Have a great day!

McDonaldLand Cookies

Do you remember them? There was always a bag in your Happy Meal...Well, they are my favorite cookie, besides chocolate chip, and you can't find them anywhere here!! They all sell the "made-from-scratch" ones. This past January, I found them in Kansas~at a McDonald's on the turnpike. So, on the way back, I bought 5 bags. They would need to last until June, when I went through again. Barely made it! So, in June I bought another 5 bags~gone! My wonderful Dad drove up to KC last Friday and stopped and bought me 3 bags! Sadly, there are now only 2 bags remaining. Does anyone know where you can buy them in the DFW area? In Kansas, they aren't on the menu, you have to ask for them! Let me know if you have some information! They're so yummy!
