A big catch up! Part 1.

I always tell myself not to slack off on my blogging but as you can see, I haven't been doing very good with it lately. So that means I have loads of pictures I want to share just for my memory sake so here it goes. They are really random and I'll probably end up doing a part 2 of randomness, but I need to get caught up!

He loves checking on our chickens and gathering the eggs. He's a great helper on the farm!

My little Indian boy :) This was at their Thanksgiving lunch at preschool. Isn't he precious? and I love my place mat!

Sweet hugs for my girl!

We made a trip to Alabama to visit family! The weather was perfect and we had such a great time!!

Adalyn pied her daddy at Charger Fest! She loved it!

We always schedule the kids cleanings during a break so this was during Christmas break. Both kids had cleanings and x-rays and their teeth were great! We headed to Chick-fil-a afterwards for lunch to keep up with tradition.

Love this sweet boy!

Look at those toes! This girl amazes me.

Landon, Judson and Liam at Liam's birthday party!

Love these two girls

Landon loves wearing his camo shirts. He always says he looks like Hunter when he has it on 

:)

For Adam's 31st birthday, I planned a trip to Knoxville with our besties for a fun weekend of football, good food and fun! We had the best time. 

We escaped! Our second Escape game together and we had a blast. They are so addicting! Can't wait to play again!

Sweet cousins hanging out on the farm. I love their little spirits- they are so willing to help!

He thought he was big stuff picking up limbs and throwing them on the burn pile for us. He is seriously the best helper. 

My John Deere boy!

Christina and I were shopping on Sunday of Thanksgiving weekend and Adam surprised me by texting me this picture. I was SO excited! We put them up every year, and we had planned to tackle the job together, but seeing it already finished thrilled me. I then questioned what the kids were doing while he was up on the roof doing that by himself though... hahaha.

I got a little canvas happy!!! #allthehearteyes

I have declared this Sweet Tea candle my favorite scent ever. It is heavenly!!

Kids had jammies on and off we went looking at Christmas lights! I love doing this each year!

Christmas time at church with friends

Our annual girlfriends get together! Each December we get together and exchange ornaments and eat lots of good food. I love these girls!

Walking down the hallway at Adalyn's school and found her Santa Claus drawing beside her classroom. So sweet!

Pictures with Santa at the Christmas Reading Night at school! 

I LOVE my living room during Christmas time. We decorate a week before Thanksgiving and take everything down a day or so after Christmas. The lights make everything feel so cozy. The kids and Adam and I cozy up each night after dinner and baths with some sort of Christmas show or movie and a snack. (But who am I kidding, we do that every night lol)

We put up little trees on the kids nightstands and this year I added colored lights around their headboard. They thought those lights were just so cool. I loved watching them plug in their lights each afternoon.

Landon was the cutest Shepard in his preschool Christmas program. It was so adorable!

We spent an afternoon at Aunt Marsha's house and decorated Christmas cookies! The kids had a ball and I may have snuck a Hershey kiss or two when no one was looking ;)

I'm going to end with that for the day. Hopefully I'll be back sooner rather than later with some more random photos of the past few months. 

Happy Thursday!

Buttercups! 2017

Y'all, it has been such a long time since I last blogged! I have so much to catch you up on, too. I will get to it, slowly but surely! I'm skipping way ahead and posting our buttercup pictures I took of the kids on Monday. I'll back up and eventually catch everyone up to speed on Christmas, snow, trips, etc. Our weather this Winter has been CRAZY. We had an early snowfall at the beginning of January that landed us out of school for 2 days, but since then, it's really been nothing but rain, sunshine and really, really abnormally warm weather. Because of the warmer weather, the buttercup field has bloomed insanely early this year! We took advantage of visiting the field on President's Day. It was gorgeous and I really look forward to capturing my two cuties in this field. They have grown up so much!

Adalyn- 7   Landon- 5

Sooo cute, right? We first took Adalyn to this field when she was 16 months old... and I was 8 weeks pregnant but only Adam and I knew ;)

Here's a look back on memory lane!

We skipped a year and then took both kids back in 2013--- Adalyn was 3 years old and Landon was 18 months.. It's hard to grasp them being SO little!

That short, curly hair!!

2014 rolled around and Hunter was 6 months old and was in town to join us for pictures. Adalyn was 4 and Landon was 2 1/2 years old. 

Look at that WHITE hair!

It seems the years go by faster and faster. 2015 Adalyn was 5 and Landon was 3 1/2 years old. Every year except this year, these pictures were taken in the middle of March, NOT the middle/end of February! 

Next, 2016. We didn't make it to the buttercup field last year. Every time we checked on it, the buttercups never bloomed all at the same time. It was weird. The field wasn't full of bright yellow color, I saw more green than flower. Our winter was weird last year so we skipped pictures in the buttercups and changed to a canola field instead. It was gorgeous!

I searched my blog for these pictures and couldn't find them... I didn't even blog about it! Ah! So, here you go. 2016 pictures in the canola field. :)

I'm pretty sure I had a smile on my face the entire time I looked through these old photos. It's hard to believe how much Adalyn and Landon have grown. These are such amazing kids and I am so grateful God chose me to be their momma. 

Happy (early!) Spring!
