Chattanooga Lookouts game

We took Lauren to the Chattanooga Lookouts ball game. She was excited to get to go see Looie.

Lauren got her glasses, so she is now ready for the game.

What a perfect evening for a game, the weather was perfect.

From the time we walked in the park, Lauren was looking for Looie. We finally tracked him down.
Lauren got a little upset when Looie went inside.

Of course we had to eat everything in the park. Even though Lauren said she wasn't hungry, she ate a hot dog, peanuts, a cherry slushy and a pretzel.

A blast from the past, Denny and Allen.

"It's dark outside Mom, time to go home."

Lauren's 3rd Birthday Party

HAPPY 3rd BIRTHDAY PRINCESS LAUREN



I can not believe our precious angel is 3 years old.

So for her birthday, we had a Princess Party. Lauren was so excited and helped us get ready for the party. She invited her friends and they all dressed up as Princesses - they were so cute!

In addition to her birthday cake, we created a sweets table - the kids loved it - I think we all loved it!





Every Princess needs a castle! It's even better when you can eat it.


The girls were so excited about getting dressed up for the party.
Aubrey, Gabi, Tori and Lauren were ready for a big day.
Now, getting them all to look at a camera and smile at the same time was another story.



Aubrey and Lauren act like sisters - they are loving here and the next minute - you never know!


My precious angel!



We wish he could really mow the lawn but Chase, Lauren's cousin, loves to push his lawn mower around. Until Lauren made him pause for a picture.



Smile Chasey!


Lauren's Aunt Stacey brought a sure party pleaser - Silly String!
Lauren loved it, the kids were all lining up for there turn. The best part, after both cans were empty, they picked it all up to press it together to make a ball.





All of the Princesses looked so cute! They played the part and enjoyed themselves.

If I had know that a couple of bags of ice would entertain the Princesses, I would just have bought a bunch of ice. Kids do not need tons of stuff to find the true joys in life.

Princess Lauren

Lauren is getting ready for her birthday party this weekend.


She will be three on May 7th - where did all that time go. Allen and I have enjoyed every minute of it! Mom did say, when Lauren was born, that we would laugh harder than we ever have - and she was right.


Lauren is going to have a Princess party and she wore her crown to Walmart and played the part perfectly - she is such a ham!
