Girls Just Wanna Have Fun

The past few days have brought on tons of playtime!  Last weekend the girls and I headed to the park to meet the Blaylock girls for a picnic lunch and playground fun.  The big girls had so much fun!  And naturally, Macie slept through it all!  Then later that week Belinda stopped through town (on her way to pick up pottery for the Gallery in Fulton) for a hot second...and we surprised Morgan at Rosie's!  Morgan was confused at first and then ran to her Bubba for a huge hug.  She was super bummed that Bubba had to leave so soon.

Trick or Treat!

We went trick or treating last night!  Yes, I know that's a day early, but it is supposed to rain all day on Halloween so a group of us from the neighborhood got together and we made a few stops at some accommodating neighbors.  The kids had a blast!  This year I had a beautiful bride and a lovely ladybug on my hands.  Could they be any cuter?  Morgan told me she wanted to be a bride so we found her a costume.  When she put on the veil that came with it she looked at herself in the mirror and told me she needed a bigger veil.  Is she my child or what?  So Belinda put the veil she wore down the aisle in the mail.  Morgan loved it!  And how special to wear Bubba's veil!  Aunt Carrie even came to town to see these little trick or treaters.  The girls were thrilled to have Aunt Carrie there!  All in all, a great Halloween! 

  Cutest.  Kids.  Ever.

Candy Corn Queens

We have been in the Halloween spirit all week!  My mom got the girls some fun things for Halloween and we have enjoyed them.  Morgan has discovered a love of candy corn and we celebrated that this year!  RoRo made her a candy corn dress and she would have worn it every day if I had let her!  So Macie got some candy corn jammers too!  Check out these festive girls...

My Girls

Sometimes my life has the sweetest moments I can hardly handle it.  Don't get me wrong, these girls can make me want to pull my hair out some days.  But then they give me these moments so wonderful that I feel my heart might burst with love.  Makes me count my blessings everyday.

 Macie is precious and so sweet

 Morgan LOVES her little sister so much

And we did a little cheering for the Red Sox this week!

Happy Birthday Morgan!

Morgan's actual birthday was spent a little calmer than the day before.  But it was still a day full of fun!  We started with breakfast at her favorite place, Waffle House.  Yep, that's right!  She loves it and so we went.  After some more presents from us Morgan played with all her new goodies all day.  Then we ALL took a nap that afternoon to recover from our last few days of fun!

Glittering Fun!



 Morgan had finally turned 4!  My big girl had been looking forward to this birthday party for weeks now and she was ready to party!  We threw her a glitter party at HealthWorks! and everything was perfect.  She had so many of her sweet friends come to celebrate with her and she loved it.  The girls got to run and play all morning and I know I had one tired girl when it was all over.  Be ready for a ton of pictures...we wanted to remember it all!

 We are so proud of our big girl!

 HeathWorks! was ready for us too

 Morgan helped me make many of our glitter items we used to decorate

Dawgs Win!

After Morgan got out of school Belinda and Emma Kate made it to Tupelo for more birthday fun!  We picked up Jeff from work and met Mom, Dad, Grandma and Sam in Starkville for the Kentucky game.  It was a cold night to watch the Dawgs play but we were ready!  Sissy kept Macie in Tupelo so I got to go to my first game of the season.  Thank goodness the Dawgs won!  Even though Grandma and Mom wore blue, we still let them sit with us.  At least Mom had some maroon on!  It was fun being together and watching Morgan and Emma Kate dance all game long!

The next day was a real treat...Mom, Grandma, Belinda and I got to shop at Celebration Village without children!  Sissy kept the girls for us while we thoroughly enjoyed our day buying everything we could find!  That night we all enjoyed a low-key dinner at home.  It was a great day!

 Look at what we got!

Morgan and Emma Kate...best friends

I was so glad Belinda and Emma Kate got to meet Macie.  And yes, I had to fuss at the Grandmothers to make them share with Belinda!
