Well it’s been a busy month for us! I’ve been meaning to update the blog for a while now. So, I thought I would just make myself sit down and do it! Here it goes:
The first weekend in May I was lucky enough to go on a girls weekend! A group of my friends from church went to Destin, FL. We had SO much fun!! There was lots of shopping, eating, laughing, movies and fun! Not much beach time because of the weather. I think everyone was just happy to get away for a while and have some girl time! Thanks to Brad and all the daddys for keeping the kids for 4 days! It gave us some new energy to keep up with the kiddos!
The following weekend was Mother’s day. Carter’s school had a Mother’s Day tea to honor the mom’s. It was a lot of fun, they had food for us and Carter gave me some sweet handmade gifts. It was really special! On Mother’s day we had lunch at my parents house. It was a great day!
A few weeks ago we had a big playdate with Carter’s best buddies. Owen is Carter’s most bestest friend in the whole world. They have been inseperable since birth! They really do love each other! Then there is Luke who was Carter’s best friend in his class at school. All Carter could talk about was “Luke this..” or “Luke that..” when I picked him up every day. So I thought it was about time to get all the best friends together at our house. What a success that was! The three of them were like peas in a pod. They had so much fun together playing and laughing. Carter couldn’t believe that they were both at his house together! We are planning more get togethers for the Summer.
Last week was the end of the school year for Carter. He has officially graduated from the 3 year old class. He is SO excited to be in the 4 year olds class! His class had a big pizza and ice cream party on Wednesday. Both of the teachers cried when they told me how much they are going to miss Carter. They were the best teachers I could have asked for him to have for his first year. On Thursday night, the school had a big “End of the Year Program”. Carter’s class sang a few songs and were SO cute! He really got into the last song. We were so proud of him! He is such a joy to our lives!
I can’t leave little Cammie out! She’s been up to a lot these days. What a little personality she’s getting! Can you say “DIVA”??? Oh my goodness!! What happened to the little quiet, non crying, sweet little thing. Don’t get me wrong, she’s still sweet but the sassy might be a little more these days! HA!! I guess it’s a girl thing! Anyways, she’s just been having fun going along on all of Carter’s events. She does love her bubby (a.k.a. Carter). We’re just having fun watching her grow and learn! Her Sunday school teacher said that she was the rocket scientist of the class! I couldn’t get over that! It’s hard to compare her to Carter because he has always been the brainiac. But we were so happy to hear that someone saw that she was smart too! Yeah Cammie! Maybe you can get through school a little easier than your mommy!!
Last Saturday we had a big service day at our church. There were about 9 projects going on all around Atlanta. Many worked in a single mom’s home, a home for women, the church grounds, nursing home, and feeding the homeless. I was blessed to be the historian of the events so I got to see everyone in action! What a blessing that day was to everyone who participated! We are so blessed to be part of such a wonderful, loving and serving church home! Carter and Brad worked really hard in the dirt and rocks. Brad is still sore! Carter kept saying “I love serving God!”. I know God was smiling down on him. 
It’s been a great month of celebrating and serving! Hope you enjoyed the update! We love you all! Here is a link to more pics:
