First Movie

Last Thursday Eve got to go to her very first movie, Hannah Montana. We went to a 1:30 show and ended up being the only people in the theater. I know we all had a really great time. The movie was really a nice family movie and Eve got to stand up and dance to all the songs. At bed time that night, we heard her trying to sing one of the songs from the movie, Let's get crazy, to herself. She knew only a few words but seemed to make up her own.

Easter Eggs

I love dying Easter eggs. My mom always would boil tons of eggs to let all of us get a bunch and I remember we all tried so hard to make them just right. So I boiled a dozen eggs and tonight me and Eve took up the task. Tyler had to finish some spraying on the farm so he didn't help us, but we still had fun. I know that I could have let her be messier but without Tyler it would be hard for the mess to not just keep going. We listened to her favorite "Jesus" CD (Wee Sing Bible Songs), used the waxed crayons and all the stickers to decorate our eggs.

I hope everyone and their families have a wonderful and blessed Easter.

First Ponytail


Last week, I finally took the plunge and tried putting Eve's hair in a ponytail. She doesn't really like me brushing my hair and most of her hairstyles I do with just my fingers after the initail brushing. But she did manage to sit long enough for me to do a little brushing and pulling back. I know its a little thing, but she just looked so grown up and you could just see her.

Fun at the Dog Show


Last weekend, me and Eve took Saturday and decided to drive to a nearby dog show we had heard about on the radio. It was free to get in and I just knew she would love to see all the many different kinds of dogs. It was well worth and hour and a half drive to see the excitement on her face and her petting all the different dogs, although some were all ready to be showed and we couldn't touch those. We also found out that the big breeds of dogs were much nicer and friendlier that the little ones. It was a fun time and I know we will be going back next year.

Here she is with a Bernese Moutain Dog, just like our friends the Bearsleys are getting soon.

Gregg and Tiff's Wedding

So back on Feb. 28th, we went home to PA to see my best (and only) brother Gregg and his beloved Tiff get married. It was a busy and hectic time, but the wedding was such a blessed affair and a great time. Here are some pictures.

but got right up and kept going. She did great.

My Grammy always loves to bust a move, even in her wheelchair.

The very happy couple at the end of the night!

Happy Birthday Mom aka Grammy Debbie

So today is my mom's birthday, so Happy Birthday Mom, aka Grammy Debbie to Eve. Eve got a pretend cake for Christmas and Tyler and Eve thought it would be a great idea to make it today for her. So here are some pictures of your cake, Mom. Included is a video of us trying to get Eve to help wish you a happy birthday. She always get shy around the camera, although most of the time she just gets obsessed with trying to watch herself back after we take a video. Thats what she is trying to get at the end. Again, Happy Birthday Mom.

PS. I will retry to upload the video tomorrow.
