Green Eggs and Ham

Last night in honor of Dr. Seuss we had some friends over (OK, the real reason we had our friends over was for him to help Travis fix the washing machine.) But, whatever the reason, we had a blast and made wonderful memories with our kids. They are such wonderful friends and got into the spirit of the night and came as Dr. Seuss books. We had, Hop on Pop, Fox in Socks, There's a Wocket in my Pocket, And to Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street, Ten Apples Up On Top! and sweet little Cindy Lou Who tagged along with them.

We made Cat In The Hat hats while the guys were working on the washing machine. With five little "whos" running around, this was the best picture I could get.

The recipe to share is not much, all I did was add green food coloring to my scrambled eggs to give them their green color. Everyone ate their green eggs except for Hannah Grace, she did not like green eggs.

We are so blessed to have these "Whos" as friends...who will come help with a broken washing machine, who can come over on a week night and it doesn't stress me out how my house looks, who are intentional in the time they spend with their family and the memories they make with their kids, who are great friends!

The Most Wonderful Gift

Our family received the most wonderful gift last night. Our friends, The Groce's, gave us this picture frame. I had seen a similar idea in Family Fun Magazine a few months back and thought it was a great idea and I have a folder on my computer with a few pictures, but their wonderful family took it to the next level. You see, each letter is from a place that is special to our famliy and theirs.

The "Sp" is from Sugar-n-Spice, where we went to eat on day at lunch, trying to get Gwen to go into labor.

The "a" is from our church playground.

The "r" is from Firehouse Subs where we go together many Sunday Nights (kids eat free on Sundays)

The "k" is from Krispy Kream Doughnuts, which we took to their family the night before Gwen went into the hospital to deliver sweet Ashlinn.

And the other "s" is from Boiling Springs High School, where Travis graduated from and where our kids will attend High School.

We are so blessed to have The Groce Family as our friends and we pray that the Lord allows our friendship to grow in the years to come.

It's A...

Thanks for praying for our friends that were expecting an addition to their family. They have a beautiful...well, I let their boy's tell you:

The girl's best buddies, called them to tell them about their new baby sister. It was so sweet to watch both girl's talk to their friends as they got to good news.

*We were sent a picture of their baby announcing her birth and Faith got so excited when she saw the picture that she burst into tears. It was wonderful to see her that excited - they can't wait till she is old enough to join in on the fun!
