Preschool Graduation at First United Methodist Dayschool
Stephen Louis finds us in the crowd of parents when the classes entered the Chapel. I cannot believe we got a wave from him!He looked so big getting the certificate from his teacher, Mrs. Ryan. (sorry the picture is dark)
SL shows off his Preschool Certificate!
His little class has a total of 12 kids and they are all so sweet!

SL takes a moment to have a picture made with "Chubby Girl"! That's the new name he has created for me now that I am definatly looking pregnant, isn't it lovely! I can handle him calling me that at times because it is so cute coming out of his little mouth, but Ben better think twice before using that nickname!Aren't all of my boys so handsome?We ended the day with a celebration dessert for our Big Boy!

More fun days in March!

Look at the fish SL caught in our neighborhood lake. He loves to fish and always catches one, usually a "big 'un"! Can you guess who snuck my camera out of my purse and took a picture when no one was looking? Too Cute!
We celebrated Nan's birthday a couple of days before SL's.
Look at SL's finger-see how it is pointing down. Well, he was loudly stating that "the other team is going down"!
Tough guys! Are you ready to rumble?
Havey is up to bat! He is loving Coach Pitch Baseball and he is really doing well for it to be his first year. It is so different than t-ball. Ben is enjoying all of this very much!!!
Starkville Academy had Grandparents' Day in March. The kids all performed a few songs and then invited everyone back to thier room for refreshments. The kids loved showing-off their room! (my mom, Mama Ann, is on the left and Ben's mom, Nan, is on the right)
Havey and his Pop (Ben's dad)!

SL had a dinosaur birthday party at our house with all of his little friends. It was so much fun! Sorry this is the only digital photo I have from that day; my battery wasn't charged. My mom took all of the pictures at the party and they were great, but she hasn't gone digital yet! SL enjoys 5 Pancakes with 5 candles on the morning of his 5th birthday!Havey made SL the cutest puppet for his birthday. He even made the wrapping paper and wrapped it all by himself! Stephen Louis loved it!He loved getting his free birthday icecream at Coldstone Creamery. He picked Green Gummy Bear flavored icecream-Yummy!

March Photos We finally got snow, at least a little! It was enough to bring major excitement to the boys' weekend. They made snow angels, snow men and had snow ball fights. Havey is so happy he was able to make a snowman, well at least a tiny snow man! Isn't it cute?

Okay, it's still March, it is just a lot warmer. Only in the South do you have crazy weather like this! Weyerhaeuser had an egg hunt for the kiddos and they had a so much fun! They found lots of eggs with really good candy in them. I was so glad they shared their treats!
Stephen Louis' class had a great time at their Easter Party. He has so many sweet little friends and he's had a great year in Pre-K at the Methodist Church!

They hunted eggs at Mama Ann's with cousins Benjamin & Georgia Lee. They all had a blast! Ben and Uncle Joseph put a frog in one of the eggs. If you look real close you will see it in Havey's basket, even though Georgia Lee was the original finder of the "special egg". I think she was glad to give it to Havey! SL found the prize egg with money in it (see it laying by his leg), but he cried when he opened it because he thought another frog would be in his prize egg! He was so sad! Needless to say, Ben and Uncle Joseph had to sneak one of his unopened eggs out of his basket and fill it with a frog! He was thrilled when he opened the egg and found it in there. He really thought he was a lucky boy to find money and a frog in his eggs! BOYS, you gotta love 'em!!! Another egg hunt with even more cousins! Thanks Aunt Melanie and Uncle Al, we all had a great time at your house!
The boys love to go on a hunt for their baskets that the Easter Bunny leaves them on Easter morning. We were at Mama Ann's house in Alabama for Easter and we had to go see the Bunny to let him know we would be there instead of Mississippi! They were very worried he would not be able to find us if we were not home!

Just showing a little Brotherly Love on Easter Morning!
They were so sweet at the Church that I grew up in. Everyone loved seeing them and how much they have grown. They were both amazed at how much smaller the church is compared to First Baptist in Starkville. They also were surprised by the difference in music between the churches. Havey asked, "Where are the drums, guitars and the screen with the music words like we have at our Church?".

More Photos from the month of February!

LIFE WITH 2 BOYS= major fun (and war)! This was one major battle that went on in our house one night during the month of February! Well, these type of action events actually occur about every night, whether with Power Rangers, Transformers, Star Wars Guys, Hot Wheels, just about anything you can imagine, sometimes between the brothers themselves! They requested I take this picture so they could remember the "battle". I make them clean up before bedtime-stepping on these items in the middle of the night when I go up to check on them just does not seem appealing!
Look at that precious smile! He lost his first top tooth! SL works very hard on his Valentine! I think Ben got this one!
The boys are all smiles because Mommy has Valentine treats for everyone!
Benjamin Harris was presented his Cub Scout Badge and beads at the Blue and Gold Banquet. We were so proud of him, he worked hard to complete all of the necessary requirements.
We celebrated Pop's Birthday during February. They gave him a Rocket Fishing Rod, but I'm not sure who they really bought the fishing pole for-him or them!
The three generations of Benjamin Harris' work on Havey's Pinewood Derby Car for the Boy Scout Race.

Nan and Pop celebrated their Anniversary in February too!

Havey was very pleased with his car once it was all completed. He really did a lot of it by himself, really! He named it XLR8 !

We ended February with our annual trip to Sandestin. Ben has a Forestry Conference there every winter and we tag along for a little fun. The weather was a little cool the first few days, but we did have one really warm day when the boys were able to wear their swimsuits out and play!

The boys watch the sunset. We admire God's awsome work too, the beatiful sunset and our beautiful boys! What BLESSINGS God gives us!

We played miniature golf one night and I swear, Benjamin Harris got a Hole-in-One almost every time!

Two Cool, Cute Dudes!

Just relaxing and chilling!

SL celebrates because there is a small ocean! Tidal Pools are the greatest, for kids and parents! They will play here for hours!
