Fathers Day

This past Sunday was Fathers day. We got so lucky because usually Corey has to work on Sunday's, but he decided to take Sunday off! We got to spend the whole day with him, which was very nice.

Fathers day morning I got up with Austin and finished decorating my cake. When I asked Savannah what she wanted to get her daddy this year she replied, "a tie". I thought that was so cute because Corey doesn't really wear ties. Maybe she saw this on TV. So I decided to make a Tie cake. I made a 9x13 cake and decorated it like a white collared shirt with a tie (well that is what it is was suppose to be :) ). So I frosted my cake and outlined the tie and let Savannah decorate the tie anyway she wanted. She also picked the accent color, pink! So the tie was decorated in pink icing and green sugar crystals. It was so yummy! Anyways, after decorating, I made breakfast. Corey requested scrambled eggs, sausage (I used turkey), grits, and biscuits. I also made some bacon. It was such a good breakfast. Then Corey opened his presents: two shirts and a new GA Tech flag for our garden flag holder. It was a great morning. When we eventually got ready we went over to Corey's dads house and hung out there for lunch. It was a great Fathers day and we are so lucky to have a daddy that loves us so much!

We are so lucky to have a Gigi (my grandmother) that takes the time to make Savannah beautiful dresses. The other day Savannah received a package and she knew it was a dress from Gigi. :)

Corey wanted Savannah to wear her new dress that Gigi made. Austin is teething very badly, so he is making this sucking face a lot.

This is Savannah's best friend Avery (Rachel's daughter). Aren't they so cute?!

5 Year Anniversary

May 15th 2009, Corey and I celebrated 5 years being together. It has been a great 5 years, yes there has been some hard times, but that is what being married is all about. My mom came over and stayed with the kiddos and we had a great evening! He surprised me with a couples massage and then had a yummy dinner at a Japanese restaurant. I love you Corey and I cant wait to celebrate our 10 year anniversary!

I am a little greasy from the massage ;)

Savannah's last day of School

I know Savannah's last day of school was at the beginning of May, but I wanted to post the pictures from the end of the year party. I cant believe my little girl is going into Pre-K!

They had water day outside.

How cute is this cupcake!?!

Garden

I have a garden! As I wrote earlier, I really wanted to do this, but as of the first of June I really had not made any attempt :) Savannah was hanging out with her Papa (Corey's dad) and he was getting some materials to make Savannah a little garden at his house. He has a huge wonderful garden. Savannah said she wanted to make the garden at her house, so he made it! I am really excited because I think I talk better than I actually do. So I need just make sure I water it and soon I will have home grown fresh vegetables. I will also save a lot of money :) Savannah and her Papa planted cherry tomatoes, regular tomatoes, zucchini, squash, and cucumbers.

Austin is pulling up and standing everywhere! For some reason he loves to stand next to the toilet (gross!). So we have to keep an eye on that stinker. He is getting into everything. I love this age!

Pulling up around 7.5 months

If you look real close you can see Austins two bottom teeth.
