Affectionately "4" Eyes

Grayson reminded me I had not posted on the blog about her new glasses.  I can't believe I let that one slip by.  Over the Christmas holidays, we made her an appointment with the eye doctor and ended up having to get glasses.  I felt so bad because she had been telling me for months she couldn't see and I had somewhat blew her off cause I thought she just wanted glasses cause she thought they were cute.  I was so wrong and felt like such a bad mom, but we have it taken care of now and even her teacher says she has improved in the classroom.  She has always been a good student so now she can be a great student.
Doesn't she look adorable?


This picture was made at the eye doctor. These were the glasses she chose.  I love them!



Flying through January

Well, just as I begin most posts....We are busy, busy , busy!!! So busy that I haven't even touched our camera since Christmas.  We are busy with school and work and me getting ready for the upcoming fundraiser dance for CSL.  This year I am serving as co-chair for silent auction and I do not want to let the league down.  I hope that we will raise lots of money for the children of Bartow County.  I must say the family business is blessed beyond my wildest imaginations right now, I just pray I can keep up.  Parker is still enjoying his basketball season as Kanon is gearing up for high school baseball tryouts.  Tyler is in cruise control right now, but better be signing up for the SAT now!!  Don is getting ready to embark on another school change and I must say he is looking forward to this one.  We both just want to go where God wants us to be.  Grayson plans to start tennis in the spring and I think she will do great.  I must say I am definitely ready for spring...so tired of this rainy, cold weather. 

New Beginnings.....January 2012

New Years Eve was a blast hanging at our new house with some friends.  Parker and Grayson both loved showing off their moves on Just Dance 3.  My friends Lari and Lane didn't look to shabby either.  And now that all the Christmas celebrations and parties are finished for this year it's back to the routine and hustle and bustle of church, school, basketball, work and enjoying our sweet family.  I feel like for once I am finally on track and have some sense of control in my life and not just moving from one activity to another mindlessly.  I am truly trying to savor each moment.  Parker is enjoying basketball as usual, although I must say they have definitely struggled the last few games.  I think moving into town relieved alot of additional stress...more than I even realized for our family.  We are not spending all of our extra time in the car which equals more time at home.

Don is out of town for work tonight and we are about to get ready to climb into bed and relax.  Grayson has already made it known that she is sleeping with me tonight.  Sleeping with me is her favorite thing to do when dad is out of town.  I must say I don't mind a bit because I know it's just a matter of time before she will be too busy for mom. 

Ok for a random picture....Can you guess where I would like to be right now?

Blessings for now.....
