Up and running!

Well, sort of... Ellie has begun the task of walking! She can get about 4-5 steps and then she falls. She tries to run, so she tends to get ahead of herself.
Since our summer has begun, we've been to the pool about 3 or 4 times. Thank goodness Ellie loves it! Unfortunately for me, the water is cold (which I don't like) but Ellie can't go in without me! Katie has a great time swimming without her floaties!
We finally have the yard cleaned up. Now we just need to get the fence fixed and a new playset.
That's about all we have to report for now! We'll have pool pictures soon!

Backyard remodel?




Well, the storm we had on Sunday night left us with a new look for our backyard! I heard a loud noise around 3 am, but I figured either the grill or table had blown over. Boy was I surprised when I went to let the dog out! We don't have an estimate for the damage yet. I never was very fond of the playset, anyway!

Ellie's Christening Day




Ellie's Christening was on Sunday, May4th at the First United Methodist Church of Dacula. Reverand Matthew Mitchell did the honors for us. Scott and I first attended FUMC when Katie started going to preschool there. We have met so many nice people at this church! Scott's parents came down from New Jersey for the special occasion.
We enjoyed brunch at Lil' River Grill afterwards. Yum!!
God has blessed us with two wonderful girls.
We couldn't ask for more!

Field Day!




Katie enjoyed her first field day! She did very well at the games and centers. She especially liked the rope climbing and hurdles! Scott and I were able to spend part of the morning with her and her classmates. It was a beautiful day!
