One Year Celebrations

A lot has happened since our last post! Tis' the season for birthdays in our family...Tilly's birthday was on February 18th and she turned *% (let's just say that she can get discounts now), Logan turned 1 on February 25th, Samuel turned 8 on March 30th, and Brittney turned 29 on April 15th! Logan was definitely partied-out after all of her celebrations. She had her first party in Nashville with Ward, Tilly, Uncle Cole, Aunt Audie, and Uncle Samuel. Then we went to Birmingham to celebrate with Cousin Preston, who was born 5 days before Logan, and the rest of Brittney's family. Logan got some great presents, had her first birthday cake, and spent some cherished time with family. We also got to celebrate Samuel's first birthday on March 30th. He invited his class to his party for some pizza, cake, basketball, and dodgeball. We forgot how much fun dodgeball could be!

Reflecting back on the past year, we realize how blessed we truly are! God has certainly enriched our lives with the new additions to our family during the past year...and we have more reasons to celebrate in the near future...April 29th marks the one year anniversary of Samuel coming home to live with Ward and Tilly and Cole and Audra celebrate their one-year anniversary on May 2nd!


Happy First Birthday!!! I loved my first cupcake!

Uncle Samuel helped me open my presents!

My first Easter Egg Hunt. Uncle Samuel helped me out, so I got a lot of eggs!

One Year Pictures

Logan's great-aunt Karen (wow, doesn't that make you sound really old Karen?) made her one-year pictures a couple weeks ago. It was so nice to finally get some great weather! Logan was a trooper and was in a good mood most of the shoot. Karen's pictures turned out fabulous and we couldn't be happier! She is a very talented photographer and we thank you Karen for your time! We also have a link to her website above if anyone is interested. Here's a sneak-peak of some of Mom and Dad's favorites, but feel free to see them all at the link below (password is logan):
