Life is Full of Firsts

As a mom of 2 girls, My mind has always been set at dresses, barbies and bows. I was a girl scout leader of 2 troops for 10 years, my husband has coached girls soccer for 15+ years. It has always been all about girls at my house.

My girls playing soccer was the closest I got to boy stuff. So when my friend asked me about doing an invitation for her son’s 2^nd Birthday party, I was all in. I love a challenge. I love my friend. So consider it done. She had a Tonka party for him. Here is the invite I came up with!

My oldest daughter has always been a very girlie girl. We never even considered having a boy. She WAS having a girl. Period. End of story. So much to our surprise that she was having a boy, we never even thought it was a possibility.

It seems that God thought we needed a boy in the family. Turns out, this little guy is exactly what our family needed I could not be more excited about the next chapter in our lives having a grandson, there will be so many firsts for all of us. 

He turned 8 weeks yesterday.

 This is one happy Glammy!

Peace, Love and EnJoy

My sister and I have been living our lives seperately for a few years, time goes by you get caught up in your own lives then suddenly you realize how very important family is. I am so glad that for the last few years we have made each other a priority. Barely a week goes by now that we don't text, talk or see each other and of course facebook makes daily communication a must!!
My sister graciously wanted to be part of the events leading up to the shower, so she flew in a few days before. She worked tirelessly on shower surprises for Dani.

We had a series at church about legacies. The definition of legacy is something handed down. Legacies are not always a material object. They can be a tradition or memories. There is an app called Marble Legacy. It counts down the weekends that you have left with your child until he/she graduates high school.
