This week is a first in our household. It's just me and the kids. Hannah is with her college girlfriends at the Beach - all celebrating turning 30 this year. We really miss her and realize what a vital part she is of keeping things smooth around here. But she deserves a fun B'day trip. We'll survive because she laid out clothes for each kid for each day and planned our meals for us for each day. So things are smooth so far!
Also, tomorrow is mine and Hannah's 9yr wedding anniversary. Can you believe it's been that long?! It's not ideal for us to be apart on our anniversary, but this is the way timing worked out and we know we'll be together again soon. Happy Anniversary Hannah!
I took the kids down to the Lake for the weekend. So the slideshow below has pics from there and also some pictures of Raegan using her gardening kit that the Leary's gave her. She really enjoyed it... and keeps wanting to check to see if the flower has grown yet.

Rae's 3rd B'day party, Hudson turns 13mo, tennis lessons...
We have a lot to note on this post. Tomorrow [Monday], Hudson turns 13months old! He is still not walking but he seems so close! He has a lot more teeth than a month ago. He is a little clingy for Mommy right now... but he is generally happy and a lot of fun!
This week, Raegan started tennis lessons. She had up and down emotions at the lessons but I think she really liked them. When I got home she showed me what she learned - noted in the slideshow captions...
On Saturday we gave Raegan her 3yr B'day party at our neighborhood clubhouse & playground. She had a lot of fun and so did we. Thank you to all of our friends & family that shared in this time!
I had a really hard time narrowing down the slideshow pictures. I borrowed my mother's nice camera and it takes such good pictures and responds so well... I ended-up taking about 400 pictures at the party. I narrowed it down quite a bit for the slideshow.
Enjoy this slideshow...

Rae turns 3, Camp Miley & Rae Dance Compilation
Last week, Raegan and her cousins attended the 1st Annual Camp Miley at Lake Martin! They spent Tuesday afternoon - Friday together at the lake with Nana and Papa. It was a fun-filled week, complete with fishing, camping, boating, sewing, cooking, movies, candy, and probably more that I'm not aware of. There are lots of pictures in the slideshow to show what they did. I wish I could attend Camp Miley!
Tony, Hudson, and I went to the lake Friday to pick up Raegan and spend time with the family.
On Saturday, I volunteered at "Camp for a Day" at my childhood summer camp, Camp Icthus. The camp is in Blue Ridge, GA and it is beautiful! I helped get families registered, took lots of pictures of the activities, and helped kids at the Arts and Crafts table. I think all of the families had a great time enjoying the outdoors together. I'm excited for my kids to have the chance to attend summer camp when they are old enough! While I was at camp, Tony and the kids went to a birthday party for our good friend Caroline, who turned 2.
On Sunday, our baby girl turned 3! It's hard to believe that it has been 3 years since God blessed us with Raegan. I loved her before she was born, but I had no idea how much love could grow in these 3 short years. She's so fun to be around, with her silly faces, sweet spirit, and funny dance moves. Every night at dinner, Raegan asks Tony and me, "How was your day?" and "What did you do on your day," the whole time listening intently, nodding her head, and asking more questions. She is so excited about her birthday party on Saturday, and has requested a "pink Goofy" cake. She made this request over a month ago and surprisingly has not changed her mind. We're looking forward to celebrating her birthday with the friends she's made over the last 3 years. Yesterday, we cooked birthday breakfast and opened some gifts. After church and naps, we went to the playground and had dinner in the courtyard at Zucca's.
Raegan has really expanded her repertoire of dance moves, so Tony compiled a few videos over the last couple weeks. The background music is what she is usually dancing to - Mickey Mouse Clubhouse songs.

Easter Week 2010
This has been a really busy week. Lots of nice days outside. B'day parties. Easter activities. We took over 400 pictures. But I was able to narrow it to just under 100. So there is a big slideshow below that talks through some of our week.
