A day at the Spa

These two crack me up. They often have their spa days together. Today it was a foot bath and nachos on the deck.

Eliza & Me

Eliza and I had a fun little outing a few Saturdays ago. A lady in our church is an excellent photographer and had a photo shoot with all the moms and daughters in Eliza's activity group at a local park. Then before Mother's day they had a wonderful program, dinner, and video of all the girls with their moms. The picture below is my favorite of us! Kudos to the leaders who put everything together.

2nd Cousins meet!

Mother's Day we celebrated with the newest mom in our family, Christie. Penny was adorable, and the girls loved taking turns holding her.

Welcome to the world, Penny Kate


My niece, Christie, had a beautiful baby girl today. Penny Kate Vielman was 8 lbs 3 oz and 21 inches long. She came unexpectedly, a couple of weeks early, when the doctors confirmed Christie's itchy hands and feet were actually a condition known as cholestasis. Inducing the baby early was the best solution to minimize any risks. Chris was actually down in FL about to take a final when the doctors said Christie needed to come in. So, I stayed with her until Chris and Myra were able to get to the hospital late that night.

We are just very happy that all went well and Penny came out healthy with no complications!

Easter Hunt

We had to stay true to our tradition of our annual Saturday easter egg hunt even though the weather was rainy and yucky.

Austin took on the role of Easter Bunny, and hid all the eggs. Then enjoyed a bag of chips while the girls ran around.



They are still so fun to watch!! Their favorite part is trading the candy once they get back inside.

Into the Woods


Julia was a cute little blind mouse in her High School play, "Into the Woods". The HS has many very talented singers who did an excellent job.


Even though I don't always like having to pick up the girls from school on nearly a daily basis...I do love that they do these wonderful extracurricular activities that enrich their lives.
