SSI Vacation - Day 1

We are having a blast at St. Simons!! The girls LOVE the beach and playing in the ocean.

Easter/Mother's Day

The girls had beautiful Easter dresses so they wore them again for mother's day and I was able to get some cute pictures with them. We had a great Easter week - egg hunts at school, egg hunt with Ken's family, egg hunt with my family, a visit from the Easter Bunny, church and lots of candy and some really cute new outfits!

Kendall's Sweet Shoppe

Kendall's Sweet Shoppe was a huge success!! The kids had a blast, enjoyed some yummy sweets including cupcakes, make-your-own ice cream sundaes and lots of goodies from the sweet shoppe. Kendall loved playing with all her friends on the playground and in the bouncy house. She got some great gifts from family and friends and enjoyed LOTS of candy!!!!!

Kendall's Birthday

We celebrated Kendall's 4th birthday all week long. Her birthday was on Sunday, so we started off by going to church. After church, we had a great lunch at The Georgia Club. Then we came home and sang "Happy Birthday" and enjoyed some cookie cake. After the cake, it was on to presents!!! All she has been asking for is a big girl bicycle and she was so excited to see it in the mudroom. She also got a new Leapster game from her sisters along with a card that played "Lollipop". The theme of her party coming up at then end of the week is Kendall's Sweet Shoppe so the card was a big hit. We finished off the night with dinner and ice cream at Your Pie - soy cheese and sorbet!!! She is super excited about her party coming up on Saturday. Monday she got to celebrate her birthday at school with her classmates. The twins and I took rice krispie treats for her class to enjoy. She was pumped about her bubblegum shirt that she got to wear to school!

The Other Spring Break

We had a great Spring Break in Daytona Beach! We got to spend a day at the beach with some new friends, eat at several of our favorite restaurants and try new ones, experience Silver Springs with Mama Sandy and Papa, play on an awesome playground, enjoy opening night at the Daytona Cubs and have lots of fun family time together.

Kendall's Spring "Break"

We were planning to leave town on a Saturday night to head to Daytona Beach for Spring Break. Early Saturday afternoon, the girls were playing in the garage and Kendall came inside crying. She said she had fallen on the concrete and her arm was hurting. She gets hurt all the time so at first we didn't really think anything too serious. However, as time went on, she continued to cry and complain that it was hurting. Ken and I decided that it might be something serious and since we were going out of town, we wanted to be sure. Karlee was going to be a runner for the NCAA Gymnastics Regional meet so I took her to that while Ken took Kendall on the the doctor. Long story short - the x-ray showed no break but a lot of swelling which usually means a break. So they made her a half-cast and we headed off to the beach. By Monday morning she was still complaining of pain and she had fallen so much that she had broken the cast! Ken decided that she needed to see an orthopedic so he made some calls and got her an appointment on Tuesday. This time the doctor was able to see a small fracture and put on a hard cast. She was such a trooper and has done great with the cast. She was very, very proud of it.
