Crabs, crabs crabs to Eat

Rachel loved the crabs but we had to crack them for her. She was proud that she was eating crab legs. The same girl who at the beach on our cruise last year refused to play in the sand in fear of crabs under the sand. Seems as if she was getting one up on them crabs!!!
Lydia refused to eat crabs and stuck to breaded fish and shrimp.
My first time to a crab shack and I loved it. LOW CARBS!!!
He's the professional.
She was ready for some grub. Of course all the hands were CRAZY sticky!!!! Wet Wipes all around!!!!

Sea World 2011

Rachel and Lydia rode their first roller coasters. They had a blast!
Lydia had a scared face on the monitor. Rachel was screaming and laughing. Both wanted to ride again and again.
We had to do the ferris wheel. Lydia rode a dolphin and Rachel was a sea creature.


We had to bring home an animal of some kind. I bought Shamu whales at the Dollar Tree before we left so they would not get an animal. They wanted the animals over a t-shirt!

Seaworld 2011










We took a family Fun Tour which put us in priority to feed/ touch the dolphins. It was a little scary but I tried to keep my cool for the kids. We touched a penguin. Avery forgot to take a pic of me touching it. We fed sea lions and sting rays too! Reserved seats allowed us to show up right before the show with perfect seats.We were as close as you could get WITHOUT being in the splash zone! Oh Avery got to ride "The Manta" also. You could see the girls looked scared just knowing their Daddy was riding a big scary ride. They seemed relieved when he came out safely.

Sea World 2011



Seaworld was great! I HAD JUST AS MUCH FUN AS THE GIRLS!!!! All the animals were cool. I took 200 pics so you will only get a glimpse of the coolness. Literally! The penguin area got crowded as people came into the area to cool off from the heat outside. Everyone had a great time!

LOVE IS THE SAME


Top picture is Rachel at 1 year old. Bottom is Lydia at 15 months old. Bless my babies! Time flies by but love does not change.I pray that I continue to show them everyday how much they are loved no matter how old. They will always be my babies!Happy Valentines to all !!

LOVE IS THE SAME AS IT WAS BACK THEN




Love is the same. It does not change. God talks about how important love is all through the Bible. Sometimes in our hussle and bussle of life, we forget the most important thing. LOVE! The kind of love that makes your stomach turn. The kind of love that grows sweeter with time. That is free for all who are willing to give it away. In order to be first, we must be last.
I love my family so much! I love old pictures of my family. Here are just a glimpse of LOVE!!

First Snow of 2011



First snow of 2011 and it was a lot! The kids had a blast. We were able to stay outside for a long time because it was mid 30's and no wind the first day of snow! Rachel made the head for our snowman.Avery came home stating ours was the weakest looking snowman in the neighborhood! Glad when live at the end of a cul-de-sac! The cypress trees were pretty with the snow on them! Welcome 2011!

Goodbye 2010, Hello 2011


We had a Great Christmas Holiday and hope you all did as well! Time surely flies you by whether you want it to or not. Looking back at Christmas past, we remember not the gifts we received but time spent with those we love. Remember that as you plan for 2011. What will people remember about you? Everyone has 24 hours in a day . Some use it for their own pleasures and at the end of your life, that will be all you have. The gift of love continues even after you are gone. It lives in the hearts of those you loved!
We welcome 2011 with great opportunities for LOVE!
