Green Meadows Petting Farm

Today we had a great day at Green Meadows Petting Farm in Kissimmee. The weather was amazing and Cooper loved every single thing we did.

We did so much!

Cooper rode a horse:

Held 5 day old chicks:

Played on old tractors:

Got caught in a herd of sheep

We chased (and caught!) chickens:

Went on a hay ride:

Milked cows!

Went on a train ride:

I did a TON of photography :)








Oh....and I got nibbled on by a goat!

What a great, memorable Sunday :)

Happy Valentines Day!

Happy Valentines Day :)

We've been sick around here for the last week. It seems to want to linger and not go away. But...we are still celebrating Valentines day. Cooper did some craft picture frames for Nana/Papa and Grammie...he now loves to paint!

Every word out of his mouth these days is "MINE" so ..welcome to the 2's! haha

We registered him for his preschool next year and he loved it when he went for the visit "Mine School!!" and cried to leave. I hope that keeps up come August.

His future's so bright...he's gotta wear shades!

Happy Birthday Rob! (and other weekend birthday festivites!)

We've had a busy busy weekend so far! Today is Rob's birthday :) Happy Birthday Honey! 21 with 20 years experience :) xooxox

Cooper and I also went to the zoo to celebrate Nolan's 5th birthday. It was such a beautiful day on Saturday and Cooper had so much fun with the other kids. He loves them all so much! Rob and I had date night last night (thanks Mom!) and went to dinner and saw "The Blind Side". GREAT movie by the way. Anyway...enjoy all the pic below.

We are off to a nice quiet day and then to Jake's for a Super Bowl party!

Wordless (Workout!) Wednesday

Remember When....

We are still cleaning out Grandma and Pop's house. There are too many pictures to scan...too many memories to talk about... and too much recent loss to keep looking at them all.

From looking at all of these I have been reminded:
1) My dad had chicken legs and always put on a show for the camera
2) My mother has always been beautiful
3) My sister was always my best friend
4) My grandpa was more handsome and more active then I realized at the time
5) My grandma always wore old lady shoes...even when young.
6) My Dorothy Hamil haircut made me look like a boy and I was SO tan from1980-82!!!

Wordless Wednesday

Seeing Shamu

Saturday, instead of going to Tampa (hope you feel better Robin!), we went to Sea World instead. We love our passes and took our time just wondering the park. Cooper was amazed that Shamu "wet the kids" as he keeps telling me. We watched and laughed one row up from the "splash zone". We spent the beautiful day enjoying ourselves in the park taking in all the animals, letting the ducks walk up to us and playing in the fountains!
