Ben THE Artist

Ben has loved art and drawing for as long as I can remember, so when one of his art projects was picked to be a part of the MISD Art show at Central Office, he was SO super excited!! He made a gorgeous Oil Pastel of a flower (see pic below), we're so proud of him and he was so happy to get to show us his work!! His art Teacher was there and was also so proud of him!
Then, we all went to Braums for an Ice cream treat!

Spring Break-FINALLY

FINALLY I'm updating this thing ;) I've been having technical difficulties with my pics. Well for Spring Break, Chris took one of the days off and we decided to take the kids to the Cavanaugh Flight Museum in Addison. It was SO fun! There were so many cool panes. One of the Hangars even had a tank, Ben LOVED it!! They both got such a kick out of seeing all of the different planes. After that we went to lunch at BJ's Brewhouse~YUMMY!! :) The kids ate wonderfully and had such a fun time!! Here are some pics of the awesome Museum:

HAPPY ST. PATTY'S DAY!!

Happy St. Patrick's Day! We had such a wonderful day, we played and hung out at the house. And of course we had to make our Shamrock cookies (it's tradition~don't ya know) ;) Ben & Emma were such great helpers!! And I decided to let Miss Ginny try a little taste~she LOVED them!! Hope Y'all had a wonderful day! I'll leave you with an Irish Blessing:
May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind always be at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
and rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

Miss Ginny's 8 Months Old

Today my precious baby girl is 8 months old!! I can NOT believe it, these months have flown by so fast! She smiles and laughs more each and every day. She's so close to saying "DaDa", she's got "MaMa, BuBu, BaBa, Ema,Gaga & Papa"!! She is SO close to crawling frontwards, she still rolls all over the place and kind of pulls herself around!! Oh Yeah, and PaPa Gilligan taught her how to pull up ~She LOVES doing that! She pulls up on me or the chair and thinks she's all that! ;)
Here are some more pics of my sweet Lambie.

Precious Charlie

My Brother, Sister-in-law and their Baby came up from Austin for a visit this weekend. We went over to my parents yesterday for dinner and We were all SUPER excited to get to see Baby Charlie!! He has grown so much since we saw him back in January (he's getting so tall)!! At dinner my Dad (PaPa) was holding him and talking to him and he was SMILING back at my Dad~Did I mention he's not even 2 months old yet!!! What a smart little guy!
Here are a couple of pics we took of the little darling:
